Watching some movie classics I have seen movies like "Lawrence of Arabia" and "Ben Hur" that show Bedouin tents as part of the story. I loved the opulence displayed underneath those huge tents... with the Sheik or Pasha sitting on a stack of silk covered cushions, a bevy of belly dancers shaking their ankle amulets, thrusting their hips in mesmerizing pelvic circular motions, wine stewards filling goblets with red wine and the food handlers working on a sumptuous spread... while their docile guards stand stoically outside the tent flaps watching over the camels.
Then there is always a part in the movie where some Caliph of a conquered province sends gifts to the Sheik. Casks of gold, emeralds, gems, fur, leather, swords, silver chalices, pearl necklaces and other pottery works made out of ivory and of course a gaggle of young virginal maidens ready for service in the Sheik's harem. With flare and high choreography the bearers would open their casks, pour out the valuable contents in front of the Sheik for all to see and to marvel at. Sighs of awe and sighs of envy issue forth from the other Bedouins in the tent.
Barack Hussein Obama flew his big bird Obama Airways 747 to Copenhagen, Denmark to grovel in front of the mighty IOC assembled in their opulent Bedouin tents. With him he brought his wife Michelle and their friend - the queen of television, Oprah Winfrey. Did Obama expect the IOC to accept these "gifts" that he bore to grease the skids and to sweeten the deal? Not a chance. He couldn't even move the IOC Sheiks with his teleprompter reading eloquence. Of course the IOC Sheiks have also witnessed the murders committed in the windy city courtesy of YouTube. Barack Hussein Obama.... mmm.....mmm.....mmm.... in all his glory and with all his smarts - he couldn't move those IOC Bedouin Sheiks.
What a sorry excuse for a president. What kind of priority tree does Obama follow? I see - the country comes last when it comes to Obama. He has to feed his ego first. He has to pimp himself up in front of the universal mirror and prove that the whole world adores him still. Never mind that his field general MacChrystal came to plead his case for more men. No - that can wait - those are only soldiers dying and getting shot at. No big deal! Obama has to escort his wife Michelle and her friend Oprah to Denmark to "save" the Olympics for his native homeland Chicago first before he can think of the economy and to act as the Commander in Chief!
Obama exits the IOC Bedouin tent like a flea-bitten dog - whipped and peed upon by a bunch of IOC Sheiks - his tail in between his legs. What a picture!!!
