The President Who Hates His Country
Historian Victor Davis Hanson also noticed something odd about Obama's apology tour. "Despite this fresh climate of atonement, there was a complete absence of a single apology from any other foreign leader...not a word came from Britain about colonialism…nothing from Germany on the Holocaust...not a peep from France about Algeria or Vietnam. Turkey was mum on the Armenian killings...Russia said nothing about the 30 million murdered by Stalin…Nothing came from China about the 70 million who perished under Mao...Mr. Medvedev said nothing about Putin's brutish rule...We saw no concrete evidence of any help — or hope and change — from any foreign leader. Zilch."
In addition, Hanson continues, "We hear nothing about our Gettysburg, or our entry into World War I. Iwo Jima and the Bulge are never alluded to. Drawing the line in Korea and forcing the end of the Soviet monstrosity are taboo subjects. That we pledged the life of New York for Berlin in the Cold War is unknown. Liberating Afghanistan and Iraq from the diabolical Taliban and Saddam Hussein is left unsaid. The Civil Rights movement, the Great Society, affirmative action, and present billion-dollar foreign-aid programs apparently never existed. Millions of Africans have been saved by George Bush's efforts at extending life-saving medicines to AIDS patients — but again, this is never referenced."
Blogger James Lewis says that Obama's "obsessive need to put down his own country shows a stunningly ignorant man who has evidently never spoken to a concentration camp survivor, a Cuban refugee, a boat person from Vietnam, a Soviet dissident, or a survivor of Mao's purges."
