What the other countries know is they can get the political dummies in the USA to give them money and other tangible support that they (the USA) have to borrow 40 cents on a dollar to do. And of course our no budget, no responsibility, no accountability ever growing debt, including financial downgrades do so qualify us to behave like we are still a world leader.
Let there be no mistake, the rest of the world has America's number well in hand and the likes of Russia and China and even the little guys like like Iran and N. Korea can kick sand in our face anytime they feel like it with absolutely no fear of retribution from the current administration.
In their eyes we have become the emasculated phony that is easy prey....and some are doing something about it.
The phrase out of touch is more appropriate for the current administration more so they try to pedal about Romney.
If Obama is re-elected (I can hardly type the words), based on his continuing his agenda and especially as a lame duck POTUS with no election concerns he will drive us FURTHER into becoming a second rate entity on the world stage....than we are already.
The new book out about him is appropriately titled....The Amateur!

BTK....I apologize for so dramatically changing the subject but if you dontmind I would like to add, since you mentioned the new book, a little bit about our MSM in this country.......
"Edward Klein’s new book about President Obama, The Amateur, has already made some news, particularly with regard to allegations that an ally of Obama’s offered the odious Reverend Jeremiah Wright a $150,000 bribe to keep his mouth shut during the 2008 presidential campaign. And the title of the book is a quote from Bill Clinton, who was said to be urging his wife to challenge Obama for the Democrat nomination in 2012.
That’s pretty sensational stuff, but the media has been studiously ignoring Klein’s book. NewsBusters noted on Tuesday that none of the mainstream media networks have interviewed Klein on the air, or offered a serious discussion of his work. ABC News very briefly mentioned the “amateur” quote from Clinton on their website, but that’s about it.
Needless to say, that’s very different from the way the mainstream press treats provocative books about people they dislike.
It looks like the public hasn’t been ignoring Klein’s book, however, because Regnery Publishing (around whose metaphorical water cooler we Human Events writers gather) announced today that The Amateur will debut at Number One on the New York Times nonfiction and e-book bestseller lists for June 03."
