TONY BLAIR PRESIDENT OF THE EU?

.
According to the UK’s Daily Mail, “Tony Blair could be crowned first President of Europe at a special summit of EU leaders next month.”

Under the Treaty of Lisbon, the nations comprising the European Union would replace the current rotating presidency with a “permanent president” having a term of two and one-half years.

One of the front-runners is former British Prime Minister Tony Blair, who enjoys the support of French President Sarkozy and German Chancellor Merkel. However, even if Blair is nominated, his nomination would not take effect until ratification of the Lisbon Treaty by all 27 member nations.

This turn of events has caused quite a lot of whining and complaining among British leftists, who hate Blair almost as much as American liberals hate George W. Bush — and for the same reason. They're invested in the lie that Saddam Hussein did not have "weapons of mass destruction", i.e. chemical and/or biological weapons.

It never fails to amaze me that these folks have such selective memories that they can totally dismiss the FACT that Saddam used chemical weapons on his own Kurdish population several times. This has been well documented by international groups such as Doctors Without Borders.

Libs also overlook the FACT that one of the conditions of the cease-fire in the first Gulf war was for Saddam to destroy those chemical weapons stockpiles and to present to the United Nations proof that he had done so. He never complied.

In fact, he violated a number of UN resolutions in the years leading up to the war. I refer you to http://www.c-span.org/iraq/timeline.asp and http://georgewbush-whitehouse.archives.gov/infocus/iraq/decade/sect2.html for a list of Saddam’s violations.

Those who insist that Bush and Blair led their nations into an “unjustifiable” war "based on a lie" are living a fantasy of their own creation and have deliberately and consistently ignored the facts, preferring liberal lies to the truth. (I have never understood the propensity of some people to deliberately choose to believe outrageous lies instead of acknowledging simple truths.)

Equally difficult to understand are those who feel compelled to destroy those brave men who courageously stand by their convictions. During the past decade, I've seen these attempted character assassinations over and over again. Rather than debate FACTS, which seem to be in dangerously short supply on the left, they launch personal attacks and spread outright lies. This is a very disturbing trend and, I think, is an indication of the moral bankruptcy of those who employ such tactics.

At any rate, it's really no concern of mine whom the Europeans choose to head the EU -- no more than it should be any concern of the rest of the world whom we elect as president. However, the rest of the world, in their lust to bring the U.S. down a few pegs, vociferously supported Barack Hussein Obama (Ummm! Ummm! Ummm!) and celebrated his election. Now, Obama, who was and is completely unqualified for the office of the presidency, is systematically taking over private industry, usurping civil liberties, and destroying our economy.

Has it occurred to the rest of the world that when our economy tanks, theirs may follow? Or is their anticipation and joy at watching Obama preside over our downfall so great that they don't care how it affects their own economies?

Barak Hussein Obama (Ummm! Umm! Ummm!) is presiding over a trashed economy with a multiple-trillion-dollar national debt. His policies have caused over a hundred banks to fail this year alone. He has allowed the Fed to monetize the debt, which can only result in hyperinflation and the collapse of the dollar. He is vilifying everyone who disagrees with his failed policies. He has explicitly stated his intention to "redistribute the wealth" and, to implement that plan, he has surrounded himself with avowed communists who openly revere mass-murderer Chairman Mao and madman Hugo Chavez.

Yet the world considers Obama a "man of reason". I cannot help but wonder what criteria the world used to arrive at that conclusion. Perhaps that conclusion was based on Obama's outstanding teleprompter-reading skills?

In this nation, there is unrest, anger and slowly rising panic among the populace. We aren't as stupid as Barack Hussein Obama (Ummm! Ummm! Ummm!) seems to think we are. We can see quite clearly what is happening.

To prepare for the coming economic collapse over which Obama is determined to preside, economists are advising people to buy gold. Those who cannot afford to invest in gold are buying seeds, dried food, guns and ammo. People are developing a bunker mentality. It's getting strange.

As one prominent commentator recently said, "There's a time coming that's going to really suck. It's going to suck really bad." Not the most eloquent statement, but true, nonetheless.
