Donald Rumsfeld Disputes the Notion Obama is Admired Around the World

What does CNN's Candy Crowley base her opinion on? Nothing but some vague, unquantifiable idea of "the streets."

Don't you miss Donald Rumsfeld? He doesn't suffer fools gladly. Though I thought he was a bit gentle with CNN's Candy Crowley in this exchange. But just look at the expression on Rumsfeld's face!


From Politico:
Asked on CNN's "State of the Union" by host Candy Crowley whether the U.S. is looked at differently than under his tenure, Rumsfeld replied, “I don't think there's data that supports that.”

"I think [Obama] has made a practice of trying to apologize for America," Rumsfeld said.

Rumsfeld also downplayed Obama’s Nobel Peace Prize.

“He had not accomplished a thing when he got the Nobel Prize. It was given to him on hope,” Rumsfeld said. “He'd been in office 15 minutes.”
As the Middle East burns and hundreds are being butchered by the Iranian and Libyan government the protesters have been right to ask Where is Obama? What did he win the Nobel Peace Prize for if it wasn't to help save lives?
