I wouldn't call it apologizing as much as being diplomatic and keeping the peace. The HORROR
Oh. I didn't know we were at war with anybody other than radical, militant islamists.

No. Diplomatic. Learing to pick you battles and all that jazz.

It turns out the world doesn't like it when we act all superior.

Ha....on the contrary....he (BHO) should continue to apologize....and grovel profusely.....It's only fair and proper that the U.S. lower itself to the level of worms for all the terrible conspiratorial things all the nasty rich money grubbing American "corporations" have done to all the poor simple beautiful humble and pure people of the world.....

...and BHO is the perfect guy for that job.....

Question Barack Obama should stop apologising for America

As has been stated before, when will the US citizenry recognize Barack Obama for what he is, a narcissist?

Frankly, I do not care for his apologizing for me, for my country, for the country which has, and who continues to give more and more, and yet even more to the world at large. I can hardly wait to read/hear of his apologist attitude in Cairo. Pfffffffffffffffffft!

Barack Obama should stop apologising for America - Telegraph


Could you please post some of these "apologies" you speak of?

I think we should not act so superior too... first thing we should do is STOP AIDING THE WORLD ! That will show the world we no longer want to be superior .

It will also save us bundles of money.

Maybe the fact that other countries KNOW we are superior just makes them jealous. You can't like those you are jealous of, no matter how much they apologize.

If we (you) were superior, we would never need to say it.

Instead, it comes off as the dumb kid who constantly tells himself "I'm a genius!" to boost his own morale, while the other kids are actually learning.
