Obama

It is a different type of President that goes to Europe and apologizes for his country. That we have made mistakes & are arrogant (from probably the most arrogant president in my memory), that we should follow the European way of doing things (i.e., have the USA do it for them) & consult them over any decisions.

Everything that "The One" asked them to do they will not do (no more support for his Afghan fight, no support for calling out N.Korea, no increase their spending, etc.). I actually thought that he was intelligent enough to do what was right for our country, I am very disappointed that he is anti-American.

I like to see a man proud of the place in which he lives. I like to see a man live so that his place will be proud of him. ~Abraham Lincoln

It is the love of country that has lighted and that keeps glowing the holy fire of patriotism. ~J. Horace McFarland

The proper means of increasing the love we bear our native country is to reside some time in a foreign one. ~William Shenstone

My kind of loyalty was loyalty to one's country, not to its institutions or its office-holders. ~Mark Twain
