Obama tries telling Brits wanting out of the EU what to do

The most ridiculous sound in the world has gotta' be the one of an overbearing Barack Obama rattling his saber at Brits who want out of the EU. It's going to take more than insipid "back off" orders from from the likes of Obama to frighten Brits from voting the way they want on Brexit. A feeble quack from a lame duck on his way out of public office will never dim the knowledge that it comes from a no-boots-on-the-ground in jihadist-held territory, no-skin-in-any-game-but-his-own, semi-golf pro, part-time president.
Tough talk from politicians rarely leave any traction of note. True-grit Brits with a storied history have no fear from a man whose own history is one held under lock and key. As a fighter, Obama's only a fop. It would take the imagination of a Walt Disney for anyone to ever conceive of an Obama crossing the Delaware to fight the Brits on that long ago frigid Christmas night. Had Obama, or anyone even remotely like him, donned a red coat during America's fight for independence, Cornwallis would have yelled, "Back of the queue for you, Buddy!" "President Barack Obama told Britain today that it would have to 'go to the back of the queue' if it leaves the European Union, then tries to negotiate its own trade deal with the United States." (Daily Mail, April 22, 2016)
One can almost hear the long gone, heroic Winston Churchill calling out Obama's self-proclaimed 'bro' Prime Minister David Cameron for letting Obama get away with stating:" A US-UK trade agreement is not going to happen 'any time soon."
"A US-UK trade agreement is not going to happen 'any time soon,' Obama said during a joint news conference with British Prime Minister David Cameron. (Daily Mail) 'Not because we don't have a special relationship but because given the heavy lift on any trade agreement, us having access to a big market with a lot of countries rather than trying to do piecemeal trade agreements, which is hugely inefficient,' the U.S. leader said."
Obama fancies himself still being in charge through Hillary Clinton after the November 8 presidential election, a fantasy that depends on her making it to the Oval Office.
"Obama faced a furious backlash overseas this morning over what has been called a 'downright hypocritical' push for Britain to stay in the European Union. (Daily Mail) "In a highly controversial intervention in the EU referendum campaign, Obama pleaded with British voters in a local newspaper and then the press conference not to cut ties with Brussels. 'The United States wants a strong United Kingdom as a partner, and the United Kingdom is at its best when it is helping to lead a strong Europe,' Obama said during a news conference at Britain's Foreign and Commonwealth Office.
In his op-ed Obama also invoked the spirit of the Second World War by claiming the sacrifice of GIs meant America has a stake in the EU debate and said the decision in June's referendum 'will echo in the prospects of today's generation of Americans as well'. Most Brits would know that these words are from the same Obama who has gutted the American Armed Forces; the same one who saw Marine duty as one that had two Marines hold umbrellas over his and the head of his friend, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan in the light rain of a White House Rose Garden press conference.
"London Mayor Boris Johnson accused him of making an 'incoherent' and 'inconsistent' argument." (Daily Mail)
Is it too late to draft Boris as a Republican presidential candidate?
"A furious Johnson said this morning: 'The Americans would never contemplate anything like the EU for themselves or for their neighbors in their own hemisphere. Why should they think it right for us?' (Daily Mail) "Obama told residents of the UK today he doesn't believe he's overstepping."
He doesn't believe wiping out America in his unasked for Fundamental Transformation of America is overstepping either, Your Worship. In any case, like most social justice engineering Marxists, Obama thinks there is no such thing as overstepping, period.
"Ultimately 'this is a decision for the people of the United Kingdom to make,' he told them.(Daily Mail) 'I'm not coming here to fix any votes. I'm not casting a vote myself. I'm offering my opinion, and in democracies everybody should want more information, not less, and you shouldn't be afraid to hear an argument being made. He said, 'That's not a threat, that should enhance the debate.'
What a joke from a president who labels all American dissidents who happen to disagree with any of his policies as 'racists', 'bigots', 'homophobes' and 'Islamophobes'.
"The U.S. president said he feels it's his prerogative to clarify the U.S. position rather than have it defined by British politicians. 'So they are voicing an opinion about what the United States is going to do, I figured you might want to hear from the president of the United States what I think the United States is going to do,' he said. 'And on that matter, for example, I think it's fair to say that maybe some point down the line there might be a UK-US trade agreement, but it's not going to happen any time soon because our focus is in negotiating with a big bloc, the European Union, to get a trade agreement done. He added, 'The UK is going to be in the back of the queue.'
With friends like Obama who needs enemies?
"Obama brought up WWII and the international institutions the US and UK designed together including the United Nations, the IMF, the World Bank, and NATO. 'All of those in some degree constrained our freedom to operate and occasionally we had to deal with some bureaucracy,' he said, 'it meant that on occasion we had to persuade other countries and we don't get 100 percent of what we want in each case but we knew that by doing so, everybody was going to be better off.'

He again reiterated the UK involvement in the EU 'magnifies' the nation's power - 'it doesn't diminish it' and argued that 'divisions in Europe' would weaken NATO. 'That'll have an impact on our collective security,' he stated. 'I have a confidence in the UK, and I know that if we are not working effectively with Paris or Brussels then those attacks are going to migrate to the United States and to London, I want one of my strongest partners in that conversation.'" Obama's 'partnership' from a man whose first move was to remove a bust of Churchill from the Oval Office and put it in the hallway is contained solely in his claimed "brotherhood" friendship with David Cameron. The real Obama is on display when Former Liberal Democrat leader Lord Campbell of Pittenweem's accusation that 'Boris dismissing president Obama as 'half-Kenyan' reflects the worst Tea Party rhetoric' by getting the London mayor branded a "racist"--the very same thing Obama accuses all dissenters of back home in the U.S.A. But then again Marxist name-calling of their enemies is now universal.
