Part of his view that this country is unjust and immoral, he has abandoned Poland and has abandoned the Czech Republic. On September 17th, 2009, the president of the United States made this announcement.<\/p>\n<p>OBAMA: We will continue to work cooperatively with our close friends and allies, the Czech Republic and Poland who had agreed to host elements of the previous program. I\u2019ve spoken to the prime ministers of both the Czech Republic and Poland about this decision and reaffirmed our deep and close ties. Together we are committed to a broad range of cooperative efforts to strengthen our collective defense and we are bound by the solemn commitment of NATO\u2019s Article 5 that an attack on one is an attack on all. <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/01125107.Par.89380.ImageFile.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"196\" class=\"alignright\"\/>RUSH: That\u2019s absolute BS. He\u2019s canceling the missile shield in Europe to protect these emerging democracies from Russia. He got in bed with Putin; he got in bed with the KGB; got in bed with Medvedev, which is essentially getting in bed with Iran because that shield was also going to be some sort of protection for anything launched out of Iran. And he makes this announcement to Poland and the Czech Republic 70 years to the day of the Soviet invasion of Poland. This is not an accident, it is not a coincidence. This man is making a statement about what he thinks of past US foreign policy and imperialism. From the UK Times online: &#8216;Dismay in Europe as Obama Ditches Missile Defense.\u2019 Fledgling democracies in Eastern and Central Europe have now been sacrificed to appease the Russians. A lot of people feared this was going to happen after Obama went over to Moscow, had a meeting with Putin and had a meeting with Medvedev, that this would be the result of it. <\/p>\n<p>So let\u2019s take some things in order. The president, not only is he weakening our economy, not only is the president attacking the US economy, he is now weakening our foreign policy, he is weakening our military, he is weakening national defense. And it\u2019s all being done on purpose. Obama turned 9\/11 into a day of serving the state. He\u2019s about to go wobbly on Afghanistan, too. The generals over there said we need more troops, but in Washington, Pelosi and John Kerry, who served in Vietnam, said, &#8216;No more troops, no more troops.\u2019 And so, Obama is about to go wobbly there. He will not rush his decision on his commander\u2019s call for more troops to win there. He has surrendered missile defense to Putin now. He\u2019s moving toward large cuts in defense spending, and just as dangerous, while all this is going on, Barack Obama is bankrupting the United States. He is severely weakening our economy. We\u2019re not going to be able to afford to defend ourselves even if we wanted to before this guy gets through. The dollar rapidly declining in value, as is America\u2019s military might. <\/p>\n<p>You know, I started the year by saying I hope Obama fails. I\u2019m actually wondering, I\u2019m asking myself, is it maybe that Obama wants America to fail so that he can rebuild it and remake it? Is it not eerie? Yesterday, the National Hemorrhoid, Jimmy Carter, emerges from whatever orifice he holes up in and all of us have a massive itch looking for the giant tube of Prep H to deal with it. He doubles down today, or in a speech last night saying I\u2019m not backing down, I\u2019m going to say it even louder. Here is a man, by any objective estimate, the worst president of this or last century. His presidency is being paralleled, it\u2019s being recycled. Everything Jimmy Carter did to our national security setup, everything he did to the military is being done by Barack Obama. Everything Carter did to destroy the US economy is being done by Barack Obama. <\/p>\n<p>Folks, I don\u2019t like talking about myself on this program a lot, and I don\u2019t like patting myself on the back, but I did often predict that this administration is going to be Jimmy Carter on steroids. Now, if he\u2019s scrapping missile defense in Eastern Europe, and it doesn\u2019t leave them very many options, I mean he gets on the phone, (doing Obama impression) &#8216;You guys, don\u2019t worry, if one of us is attacked, we all get attacked. NATO Article 5, don\u2019t worry about it, you guys, we got it handled.\u2019 They\u2019re not feeling comfortable about this. (interruption) What? Obama\u2019s got a newer, smarter missile defense? A newer, smarter system of defense? What, like not defending anything? Oh, gonna use boats, going to launch missiles from boats. He\u2019s going to launch defensive missiles from boats to protect Eastern Europe. What body of water are these boats going to be floating on? Well, if it\u2019s smarter, it\u2019s too smart for me to understand. Anyway, if they can\u2019t have our missile shield, maybe they might consider adopting our Second Amendment and build some bunkers. Maybe Obama could give them some grants, bucks for bunkers, bucks for buckshot. It\u2019s the least we could do for our former allies, ladies and gentlemen. <\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: By the way, folks, it\u2019s not just Poland that we have turned our backs on. It is Honduras, along with the Czech Republic. Greta last night on Fox News had a big segment on this. I think it was last night. Next week, the Obama administration will allow Ahmadinejad, Castro, Hugo Chavez, Khadafy, and several other international dictators into New York City to speak in front of the UN General Assembly. Now, you\u2019re saying, &#8216;Wait a minute, Rush! Obama can\u2019t not let those people in. They\u2019re going to the UN, diplomatic immunity.\u2019 Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah. One country\u2019s president will not be allowed into the United States. President Roberto Micheletti from Honduras will not be allowed to enter the United States of America. His visa was revoked by the Obama administration in August. He is the legal president of Honduras. He was installed not in a coup; he was the legal president. <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/01125107.Par.4584.ImageFile.jpg\" width=\"450\" height=\"342\" class=\"alignright\"\/>So for the first time in our nation\u2019s history, a president of the United States is siding with Marxist communist leaders &#8212; Hugo Chavez, Daniel Ortega, Raul Castro, Evo Morales &#8212; in condemning our democratic freedom-fighting ally of Honduras. Do not doubt me. This man has a chip on his shoulder about this country. It was unjust and it was immoral until he became president, and now he\u2019s going to reverse all of what he considers to be unjust and immoral and illegitimate about this country. Starting with our economy, and redistributing as much wealth as he can, and next tearing down our defense establishment and our foreign policy posture. Because to a man like this and his allies and cronies, we\u2019re nothing but a bunch of imperialists. <\/p>\n<p>&#8216;We are 5% of the world\u2019s population but we steal 25% of the world\u2019s resources. We are causing poverty all over the world! We ally with people who blow up other people. We are just horrible. Our nation is horrible and rotten, and nothing redeeming about it, and that\u2019s why he runs around apologizing for it,\u2019 and that\u2019s why he\u2019s pulling us back. It was a story we had yesterday. In fact, it was in the Morning Update today The International Institute for Strategic Studies has issued a report that celebrates what they consider a weakened United States. &#8216;Clearly,\u2019 says the report, &#8216;the US share of &#8216;global power,\u2019 however measured, is in decline.\u2019 Now, this place is in London, and they say also that &#8216;domestically, Obama may have campaigned on the theme &#8216;yes we can\u2019; internationally he may increasingly have to argue, &#8216;no we can\u2019t,&#8221; and they praise Obama for recognizing there\u2019s only so much America can do &#8216;to impose its views on others.\u2019 <\/p>\n<p>Well, the traditional view of America was one of freedom and liberty, neither of which can be &#8216;imposed,\u2019 unless you\u2019re a dictator or a terrorist leader &#8212; and then, of course, freedom for your people is considered an imposition. America\u2019s difficulties in Iraq and Afghanistan have supposedly &#8216;exposed\u2019 the limits of our military power. The financial meltdown has sapped our economic base. In addition, we\u2019ve lost our traction in dealing with Iran and the Middle East &#8212; and all these lefty think tanks are applauding this. They\u2019re happy. It\u2019s about time we were cut down to size! A &#8216;weakened America\u2019 is an improvement because in their view and Obama\u2019s America has not been the solution to the world\u2019s problems. America is the problem. <\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: I want to finish this little riff here on the European think tanks being all giddy and happy with Obama weakening America. We\u2019re no longer the power player that we were. There\u2019s this guy named Robin Niblett, and he\u2019s head of Chatham House, which is another London think tank, and he says that (paraphrasing) &#8216;the rise of power of China, the reemergence of the Soviets and the European Union,\u2019 which is laughable, &#8216;has made it difficult for America to influence others. Besides, America\u2019s long been seen as the problem. Climate change, financial crisis, Middle East policy.\u2019 Robin Niblett says Obama\u2019s administration is far more Frank about US interdependence with the rest of the world and that\u2019s a good thing. They love the fact that Obama is tearing this country apart, they love it, they love a weakened America, they love the whole process of America is being seen as the problem here. <\/p>\n<p>Now, Mr. Niblett and the rest of you European leftist socialists, maybe a weakened America sounds good to you, and maybe it sounds good to Obama and his cronies, but it does not sit well with non-liberal Americans. We\u2019ve been through this before, the National Hemorrhoid, Jimmy Carter. And you know what the answer to a weakened America was? Two words: Ronaldus Magnus. So don\u2019t start celebrating yet, Mr. Niblett, we are not done, not by a long shot. And furthermore, Mr. Niblett, who is going to protect your little lily-livered white butt when somebody has you in the crosshairs? Who\u2019s always done it? You guys over there haven\u2019t the ability to defend yourselves. We have to clean up every mess you people start, and now we\u2019re not going to be able to. We\u2019re not going to have the means, we\u2019re not going to have the wherewithal and we\u2019re not going to have the policy. So the next time you\u2019re in somebody\u2019s crosshairs, the next time Russia wants to cut off natural gas supplies to your area of the woods, you gotta deal with it on your own until we get rid of this administration and replace it with one that will rebuild America as a superpower, which is for the good of everyone on the planet. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: President Barack Obama is fulfilling something I knew was going to happen.
