Around World, Obama’s Presidency A Disappointment

Barack Obama between flags SC Around World, Obamas Presidency A Disappointment

In Europe, where more than 200,000 people thronged a Berlin rally in 2008 to hear Barack Obama speak, there’s disappointment that he hasn’t kept his promise to close the military prison at Guantanamo Bay, and perceptions that he’s shunting blame for the financial crisis across the Atlantic.

In Mogadishu, a former teacher wishes he had sent more economic assistance and fewer armed drones to fix Somalia’s problems. And many in the Middle East wonder what became of Obama’s vow, in a landmark 2009 speech at the University of Cairo, to forge a closer relationship with the Muslim world.

In a world weary of war and economic crises, and concerned about global climate change, the consensus is that Obama has not lived up to the lofty expectations that surrounded his 2008 election and Nobel Peace Prize a year later. Many in Asia, Africa, the Middle East and Latin America were also taken aback by his support for gay marriage, a taboo subject among religious conservatives.

    He may be a disapointment around the world but here he’s an illegal breach of security.

  2. Evermyrtle says:

    I understand Obama is the being considered for the World Government leader. He should get the honor that he seek there, if this is true

    Any of the idiots who actually expected anything from this freak of nature only have themselves to blame for being so stupid! Any American who is “disappointed” in him, deserves to be. The name alone should have screamed “WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG AND WRONG” when you first saw it! I know everyone makes mistakes now and then, but with this one, what did you need? A BRICK UPSIDE THE HEAD TO WAKE YOU UP!? The one name alone should have at least given you some thought, HUSSAIN! Really, after September 11, 2001, and the murders of 3000 people in our Twin Towers should have stopped every one of you cold in your tracks before you cast your votes for this flap earred dimwitted nobody from nowhere! And, the world is “DISAPPOINTED”? How do they think we, who did not vote for him, and have been angry since then, how do they think we feel? WE didn’t want him! We STILL don’t want him, and apparently, we COULDN”T GIVE HIM TO ANYONE FROM ONE END OF THE UNIVERSE TO THE OTHER, if what this article says is so! They WOULDN”T WANT HIS SORRY USELESS LIPS AND EARS EITHER! I mean, this son of a knock kneed, cross eyed, brain damaged CAMEL is TOXIC! Everything he touches turns to SHHHH IT!! No jobs, no money, no economy, and………..no end in sight. No end of the spending that this irresponsible dimwitted half and half of nothing much at all keeps on doing, he spends like there is no tomorrow, and the worst part of it is, he is spending our money, our TAX DOLLARS that we bust our rearends to pay! So he and old MOOOOOOO can take trips, he can golf, and she can wear the most awful looking shoes ever seen on the feet of the ugliest, buck toothed, bubble butted sow of a female ever!
    I am sick of the both of them, they are the most disgusting twosome ever to ungrace the cover of every magazine on earth, and to ever darken, and I DO MEAN DARKEN the doors of what used to be a WHITE HOUSE! They have turned it into a stomping ground for every criminal on the planet! And that isn’t even to mention the mu SLIMES that are there daily, right down to in “homeland security”! Boy! Don’t that make us all feel real safe!!! How many others are infecting our nation and her capitol now? Infecting, infesting and infiltrating every aspect of our lives! This is the most insulting peice of garbage ever to sit anywhere NEAR our capitol, much less be called by the name of “president”! He is NOT my president, never has been and will be. The world may be disappointed, but I am just disgusted beyond disgust.

  5. kidrichie says:

    They are disappointed with Obama around the world, not because he didn't do good things to the USA; they are disappointed with him for not doing more to hurt the USA!
    A Pox on them all!

    • Edwardkoziol says:

      This is so true that is why he had to tell that Russian President that he would hookup with Putin later to screw and give the US away.

  6. Devasahayam says:

    Not in India–but then many there already knew that he was a "quota President", as printed in November 2008 in Deccan Chronicle (not exactly a conservative paper).

    No, you think?, Really, duh!
