This is a great article from Mark Steyn about how Obama views the US as just another country. He wants a diminished America to be part of a new global system.
The End of the World as We Know It
According to an Earth Day survey, one third of schoolchildren between the ages of six and eleven think the earth will have been destroyed by the time they grow up. That’s great news, isn’t it? Not for the earth, I mean, but for “environmental awareness.” Congratulations to Al Gore, the Sierra Club, and the eco-propagandists of the public-education system in doing such a terrific job of traumatizing America’s moppets. Traditionally, most of the folks you see wandering the streets proclaiming the end of the world is nigh tend to be getting up there in years. It’s quite something to have persuaded millions of first-graders that their best days are behind them.
Call me crazy, but I’ll bet that in 15-20 years the planet will still be here along with most of the “environment” — your flora and fauna, your polar bears and three-toed tree sloths and whatnot. But geopolitically we’re in for a hell of a ride, and the world we end up with is unlikely to be as congenial as most Americans have gotten used to.
This explains Obama selling out our allies and kissing up to our enemies. His view is that of a Transnational Socialist. This belief is that nations are subservient to International Institutions. These Institutions are ran by elites who think they know whats better for us. I stand for a Free America, not one subservient to the Global Community.
