G20 Observations

A couple points regarding the G20 summit.

• From all the video and pictures I've seen from London I get a weird impression that the whole affair is a big social fandango where the untouchables of the world are together and toga partying behind closed doors . I would say frat party, but this is much more exclusive and private - but don't count out the toga.
• Obama is definitely vocalizing the misdeeds of his homeland. I believe Obama has the view that as long as we are nice and caring...then, gosh darn it, they are going to love us. I'm sure he appears weak and other world leaders love it. We are going to let the rest of the world guilt us into giving up liberty for posterity's sake. It's not like we're not already the most giving nation in the world - no country is as generous as America - but the "new world thought" is that we must break ourselves from the notion of exceptionalism and embrace collective world values in place of the strive for greatness in order to appease the masses.
  
• French President Sarkozy.....this is a good one. This guy carries his tail between his legs and walks out of the summit as if his opinion should really matter. If I were really feeling froggy, I would make a joke about retreating Frenchmen and how they cower to confrontation, but that would be wrong. Yeah, stereotypes are really bad. I have more class than a cheap shot like that.
• Regarding the G20 Protesters- I heard some "man on the street" type interviews from the protesters. It's amazing the lack of intelligence that is running amock around London. Those idiots don't know what the hell they're protesting. One guy mumbled incoherently about the fat cats up in the office buildings somehow taking his money. Aren't those guys up there working while the jobless bums protest? Seems ironic to me, as these idiots are the one's wanting all the freebies from the producers that are actually making the world go around.
  

Ahhh...ignorance is abundant in London. From the idiot politicians on down to the idiot protesters. We should build a fence now while we got the idiots all in one place!
