Just leave it alone. It has been posted countless time on here. Can someone close it up?

This is an outrage. Or something. I guess. Perhaps.

I wonder if this program also held Santorum accountable for the lie that Danes euthanize people against their will? Or that they wear bracelets stating "Please don't euthanize me?" Better a repetitive phrase than blatant lies.

Technically speaking, that was the Dutch.

No worries, it illustrates a worthwhile point: We little countries don't really get worked up over that sort of thing. The sentiment that Denmark or Norway or whoever contributes out of proportion with its size is nice, but I don't think anyone harbors the illusion that the President is going to crank the rhetorical devices up to 11 for that purpose.

However, poking fun at the powerful is a very popular Danish pastime, so...

Obama speaks in cliche when he's trying to be nice and polite and non-controversial to foreign dignitaries. What a scumbag he is.



If you are outraged by this video, you have a low intellectual capacity. You can't understand the nuance in the world, and that is why you are angry.

You could make such a video about every powerful man who has met with other powerful people in the history of human civilization.
