European Antiques Roadshow...
There are just so many different things I can liken Obama's European trip to.
One comparison I thought of was Antiques Road Show, where someone comes to
possess a priceless, vintage thing, but, not having been the one to buy it,
and not being fully informed of its worth, has to cart it off to dealers
who would probably like to have it for themselves.
Obama took our country's democracy and freedom (you know, those
antiquated beliefs and ideals he seems so quick to shed) to Europe in his suitcase.
If I could have, I would have called after him to be careful with it, to be wary of
those who would tell him that it is worthless and can be replaced with a cheap,
socialist substitute. Don't sell off something that was so hard-earned.
You didn't pay for it, but look around while you're in Europe, look past the political
mouths, and picture what was happening over there during WWI,
when American soldiers arrived and greatly bolstered
the confidence of European allies with their determination when they sang,
"we won't come back 'til it's over, over there."
Think about the second time we sent our soldiers there...WWII.
Think about Normandy.
When you stepped off Air Force One and onto European soil, it was a day
made possible because of a beach soaked with American blood and because of
trenches where American soldiers were brave enough to go over the top.
Mr. President...Who are you calling arrogant?
The ground you walked on over there was bought with the same blood
that purchased the freedoms you take from us daily.
You hold a thing of great value and don't have a clue as to its worth.
As you wildly swung that suitcase all over Europe, trying to make
deals of appeasement, the very blood of our American soldiers
cried up from the ground you walked on.
We are not arrogant, we just know the value of what we own.
We are confident. Europe leaned on that confidence during WWI and WWII.
Why are we apologizing to Europe for the little we have left in that suitcase you
toss around? You're a hotshot and maybe Europe is impressed, but not
because you are anyone special, not because you speak elegantly with a
teleprompter...it's because of what is in the suitcase you took with you.
That is the only reason why anyone listened to you.
It is the only reason why some small town writer like me can voice her discontent.
Let us hope that Europe didn't think you stood for every voice in America.
Some of us are willing to sacrifice for our freedom and we
are dead set against your foreign policy of appeasement.
We don't want to give away anything in that suitcase.
We appreciate every single liberty we have, and we say to others, who
pant after the political systems founded by kings and tyrants,
feel free to move. The socialistic ideology you espouse promotes an attitude of
entitlement that thumbs its nose at sacrifice. Those of us who know world history
are sickened and alarmed at the direction you are taking our country.
As our President and his wife took their European vacation,
I found the news reports quite alarming.
Even as North Korea was shooting off its missile,
Obama was shooting off his mouth about downsizing our nuclear missiles.
He spoke like an uninformed tourist, drastically out of touch with the majority of the
thinking American population...you know, those people with jobs who pay taxes.
He called us "arrogant."
But did this catch anyone off guard?
Didn't he do the exact same thing when he was running for president?
Didn't he travel to rural areas and then report to larger cities that we
"cling to guns and religion?"
Now, he leaves the rural dirt of America and reports to all of Europe that we are arrogant.

In the midst of my irritation, I did begin to feel some pangs of sympathy for the guy.
I mean, there he was, just one man, trying to kiss all of Europe's butt.
Whether I think he should have done it or not, that had to be pretty exhausting.
I'll bet his lips hurt...maybe I can help.
