That administration has just accused and criticised Germany for anti-Muslim sentiments, and accused europe in general for anti-muslim "discrimination". Somebody in washington does not know what he is talking about.

I have given Obama his time to show what he is aiming at. I was not optimistic over him, never was, but I was willing to give him a chance. That he failed in acchieving some certain things, in parts may be due to inherent resistances of the matters that are beyond his control. But for the orientation of his global and foreign policies, and the split-tongued stand of his regarding climate, all of which is visible now after over one year, he is in full responsibility. His ideas in parts are dangerous, and extremely - most extremely - islamophile, bordering self-denial, and declaring holy what is totally hostile to freedom and justice, female equality and reasonability. And over these things he has totally lost me, so now I find myself opposing him completely.

Different to the hyped expectations her ein europe, I did not expect miracles of him. But that he would deliver such a threatening record, is dissappointing even for me.

I hope he does not win the next elections. Which does not mean that I will like his Republican challenger any better, it depends on the person, of course. but if venomous primitives of the kind of Palin are all what the Republicans can show up with, then the next elections will be a no win-no-win-situation for america, and the rest of the world.
