Americans don’t need foreign approval to lead their lives as they see fit


In an amusing email yesterday, RNC chair Robert Duncan (while falsely claiming that Obama plans to give $845b to “United Nations’ redistribution efforts”) complained that Barack Obama dared to call himself a citizen of the world:
It seems the Democrats’ would-be president of the United States of America really believes that the rest of the world’s problems, and approval, trump the interests of Americans when it comes to how we live our lives and where our money is spent. While stumping for the support of his party’s leftist base, Obama proclaimed, “we can’t drive our SUVs and eat as much as we want and keep our homes on 72 degrees at all times . . . and then just expect that other countries are going to say OK.”
Therefore, Duncan goes on, we should all give the Republican Party money to “show Barack Obama that Americans don’t need foreign approval to lead their lives as they see fit, and that he ought to remember that he is running for president of the United States, not the United Nations.”

Yeah, Barack, you really ought to remember that.
