Things really are changing:
Barack Obama is not used to being the guy not invited to a party. At the Copenhagen global warming conference, however, he found that not everyone wanted to hang with him. Our president can’t take a hint.
After Mr. Obama’s bilateral meeting with Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao, the Chinese began sending lower-level functionaries to the multilateral meetings. A frustrated Mr. Obama pressed for another bilateral meeting, which was scheduled for Friday at 6:15 p.m. Other leaders of the countries known as the “BASIC” bloc were harder to pin down.
The Obama team tried to schedule a meeting with Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and was told he was at the airport readying to leave. Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva also was unavailable. South African President Jacob Zuma said there was no point meeting without India and Brazil. Then the Chinese pushed the bilateral meeting back to 7 p.m.
“We were told they were at the airport,” a senior administration official said. “We were told delegations were split up. We were told they weren’t going to meet.” So imagine Mr. Obama’s surprise when he arrived for the bilateral powwow and found all four leaders in the room already in deep discussion. “Are you ready for me?” he said with an “uncharacteristic edge” to his voice, according to a CBS News report.
Because they neither respect nor fear him. This, liberals, is an excellent demonstration of reality. You thought that because opinion polls showed Bush unpopular that the world didn’t respect the US. You thought that because of the absurd stories of abuse at Gitmo that the world didn’t respect the US. You thought that because we were fighting in Iraq that the world didn’t respect the US. You thought wrong. The reality was that behind all the rhetoric, the US was deeply respected by friends and greatly feared by foes while Bush was President. Everyone knew that not only would America fight in its interests, but would also support its allies and would never quit.
All of that – every last bit of it – has evaporated under Obama in less than a year. Even Clinton’s cut-and-run in Somalia in 1993 wasn’t as disastrous as Obama’s policies have been. Quit simply, the world is ever more convinced that Obama is in over his head and that American policy is in the hands of ignorant fools.
President Obama, please call President Bush and have a sit down with him about the ins and outs of foreign policy.

Copenhagen wasn’t the only place ObiOne was dissed.
who will respect a fool with his mouth full of lies…certainly the whole world knows he is a liar that can not be trusted…he has that history…his mouth is chock full of lies…his heart full of treason…what wise man would stand next to a fool and let him lead the free world?
…
not one…no, there are none…
his heart is full of more than treason, js02, Obama’s heart is filled with murder, pure murder…as all dictators have and are. Fortunately, he is only a wannabe dictator as of the present. We cannot afford to allow him to achieve his cold-blooded dream.
Spook, is that YouTube video for real?
Wow, being a great orator isn’t enough anymore, huh? Maybe he should call the king of con, Slicky Blue Dress, for lessons on how to deal with foreign leaders.
Of course, the cool treatment of the Narcissist in Chief will be blamed on President Bush…
And of course, Obama continues to be dissed in Copenhagen…or at least the Copenhagen in my cartoons! Hop over to JBYP, where the lovely Sarah Palin has put in an appearance!
That video Spook posted was unbelievable, and embarrasing, for Obama, but moreso for our country.
Meanwhile back at home……..

Not one single liberal comment. Interesting.
Most liberals are probably still in a state of stunned disbelief that it took you guys this long to find out that this had happened. Do you follow the news at all?
Or it could be that the Premier knew that the climategate emails were hacked, sent from a chinese computer? Did someone jump on the bandwagon a little too early? Ala Homer Simpson DOH.
SA
more like stunned disbelief at the lack of any competency that zer0 exudes from his empty suit.
Hell his bro in the thatched hut in Kenya could do as well…..maybe better.
