The Shame Of The West

So the Lockerbie bomber was released by Scotland back to Libya today. The vile scum's name escapes me, but it's a name you won't remember. In fact, you shouldn't have heard the name ever again.

It was asked today after he was welcomed home a hero to the shame of the west and especially Scotland/ the United Kingdom, what can we do to prevent such embarrassment from happening again? Seriously? Does it actually require brain cells to have to expend a singular ounce of energy thinking about this one. The Libyan was a killer. You take the key and you throw it away and you never look back. It's called justice. It's a concept that is slipping away from the West's understanding.

President Obama, certainly not at fault, stepped in to contact the Libyans to "make sure" he wasn't treated like a hero. That's rich. It worked out well too. We have the spineless, Obama suck-up, English Prime Minister Gordon Brown silent on the issue in the UK looking as positively ridiculous as ever. Obama, who continues to absolutely cripple America domestically, stepped up to the plate to show once again what a weak leader he is on foreign affairs too. The release was "inappropriate" according to Obama. Really?

It is positively shameful that Scotland would release this creature to walk back upon his soil a martyr. I'm not the least bit surprised really, though I never thought I'd see the day.

But why would I expect Obama to have any significant input on the matter of any kind? After all, this is the same President who released the detainees of Guantanamo Bay. Once again, I'm not sure there is any real sincerity coming from our President on this issue. He'd rather placate the enemy, hug, talk and be friends. This move is right up his alley. There's always tough talk, but I'm not even sure of that. Nowadays, there isn't much backing to any of the rhetoric of the West and we will continue to be trampled upon by those who laugh at us for being embarrassingly weak.
