If someone were forced to describe President Barack Obama using ten words or less, an objective person might very well use the following terms to describe Obama and his train wreck of a presidency.
- vacillating
- weak
- indecisive
- underwhelming
- arrogant
- perfunctory
- self-absorbed
- ill-prepared
- adulation-obsessed
- irresolute
This has been apparent in virtually all of his dealings and now let the world witness the colossal embarrassment that is the open act of piracy on the high seas, the first such attack on America shipping since the Barbary Wars, 200 years earlier. Indeed, presidents Jefferson and Madison were far more decisive in their actions, from a relative position of weakness than Obama has been from a position of strength, thus inviting yet more aggression. There can be no doubt that these pirates can read the writing on the wall, and clearly recognize that they only stand to gain by attack Americans so long as Barack Obama is in the White House.
Over the next four years we can expect such brazen aggression against the United States to continue as our new found weakness is readily apparent to anyone who witnesses the humiliating stature of our new president.
