World's dictators endorse Obama

Ahhh, doesn't that set your mind at ease? Weakness can't be project onto the Free World any better than to see the world's dictators rally behind a feckless American president. (Here's the original article from a few weeks back that many are reporting on today)

GerardDirect: The latest [dictator] to publicly announce his support for the commander-in-chief’s reelection bid was Venezuela’s Hugo Chavez, who this week assured he’d vote for Obama if he were from the United States. The America-bashing strongman made the announcement on state-owned television, saying “Obama is a good guy” and that if Obama was from Caracas, he’d surely return the favor by voting for Chavez.

With the way Obama's Justice Department has fought the Voter ID laws across the nation, Chavez may get to vote for his man afterall. The article moves on to the other tyrants...

Earlier in the year the government-official daughter of Cuban military dictator Raul Castro proclaimed her country’s support for Obama during a visit to the U.S. “I believe that Obama needs another opportunity and he needs greater support to move forward with his projects and with his ideas, which I believe come from the bottom of his heart,” Mariela Castro said during a cable news interview. ...

That brings us to Russia’s Vladimir Putin, who has eliminated most elections in his country, monopolized all major media and destroyed the political party system. ... In a letter to a major newspaper, the president of a group dedicated to expanding freedom around the world points out that under Putin there has been an “across-the-board crackdown on civil society.” The piece goes on to ask: “Will Obama stand up against Putin’s abuses?” Unlikely, now that the Russian dictator has extended his endorsement.

Time to wake up, America. If it's taken you up until tonight's debate to figure out who the better leader would be to navigate America through these turbulent times and back to its exceptional path, then I'm sorry to say, but you've been fast asleep over the past 4 years. The alarm's buzzing louder than ever...don't hit sleep again.
