AUDACITY

During the campaign much was heard about 'the audacity of hope'. Well, 'audacity', at any rate, was on display this week big time...and maybe there was some hope, of the most cynical, Orwellian kind.

Or, maybe, Obama thinks he is a Jedi master making use of "Jedi mind tricks" on what he thinks of as the dim (Dhimmi?) witted masses? :

"You didn't see the President bowing before the Saudi King. Move along, nothing to see here."

The Administrations says that the President is taller than the King and he was making a two handed handshake- it just LOOKED like he was bowing. Paraphrasing Mark Steyn, who are you going to believe,the Obama spin machine,or your lying eyes? It's all there in living color, and no one has suggested the images have been doctored. Audacious, all right. and underhanded (no pun intended).

This really is monumental arrogance, cynicism and perversity all rolled into one. And, as the old Carpenters song lyrics went, "We've only just begun...".

More on this another time. Ponder this...why did he bow. And what are the Saudis to make of the bald-faced lying denial?

Nothing at all, methinks. Par for the Dhimmi course.
