Conservative criticism of Obama: He was "born to a mother attracted to men of the Third World"

[w¡n9Nµ7 §£@¥€r 123]

This president seems never to have studied much American history. Not bowing to foreign potentates was what 1776 was all about. His predecessors learned with no difficulty that the essence of America is that all men stand equal and are entitled to look even a king, maybe particularly a king, straight in the eye. Can anyone imagine George Washington, John Adams or Thomas Jefferson making a similar gesture of servile submission? Or Harry Truman? Or FDR, who famously served the lowly hot dog, with ballpark mustard, to the king and queen of England? John F. Kennedy, on the eve of a trip to London, sharply warned Jackie not to curtsy to the queen.

Douglas MacArthur, who ranked above mere heads of state in his own mind, once invented his own protocol on greeting Emperor Hirohito. The emperor, the father of Akihito, wanted to meet MacArthur soon after he arrived to become the military regent of Japan in 1945, perhaps to thank him for saving the throne at the end of World War II. When the emperor invited MacArthur to call on him, the general sent word that the emperor should call on him - speaking of breaches of custom - and the two men were photographed together, astonishing the Japanese. The emperor arrived in full formal dress, cutaway coat and all, and MacArthur received him in summer khakis, sans tie, with his hands stuffed casually in his back pockets. Further astonishing the Japanese, he towered over the diminutive emperor.

But Mr. Obama, unlike his predecessors, likely knows no better, and many of those around him, true children of the grungy '60s, are contemptuous of custom. Cutting America down to size is what attracts them to "hope" for "change." It's no fault of the president that he has no natural instinct or blood impulse for what the America of "the 57 states" is about. He was sired by a Kenyan father, born to a mother attracted to men of the Third World and reared by grandparents in Hawaii, a paradise far from the American mainstream.

Eisenhower ® bows to Charles De Gaulle...

...and the wife of Italian PM Giovanni Gronchi.

Oh the outrage...

Oh the outrage...

The point was that an editor at the Washington Times thinks there's something wrong with American women being attracted to men of the Third World. The point is that in the bigoted circles conservatives inhabit, that is legitimate criticism.

This tells you everything you need to know about the kind of individual attracted to American political conservatism.

They say this as if it's a bad thing.

To them, it is.

Bowing as a greeting and bowing below the knee are two different things. One is a form of worship.

Wait, I thought he was Muslim. Make up your damn minds, teabagger freaks.

Yeah but that needs no saying. American political conservatism looks at trailer parks for leadership.

I guess the losers of American society, those left behind by globalization because they lack the skills and intellect to compete, need representation too.

And they've found it:

[NickD 203]

I don't recall anybody asking me which parents I wanted, nor when I should be born, or if I even wanted to be born, period. This piece is pure BS, but feel it's fine to pick on Obama for other reasons, reasons he is responsible for.

One big elitist party! Hooorah!

You can't use this guy as a label for everyone else.

[Peikko 1,575]

The rest of the world looks on and wonders. I've heard a few programs now where political commentators in the UK are simply flabbergasted that such idiocy is taken seriously. It's got nothing to do with political affiliation either, everyone thinks it's peculiar.

Which kind of political conservatism? You possibly mean extreme right or crazy people, not just conservative.

[Peikko 1,575]

I think he means those in the American political system (and those who hang on to these people) who have taken possession of the term 'conservative' at this time.
