The world watched as Barack Hussein Obama stepped onto the stage and accepted the ceremonial crown as leader of the free world. Collectively we held our breath.
His arrival was preceeded by incredible anticipation, the job ahead of him described as beyond human conquest, his ability described as more than enough for the task at hand.
One month later the spin has spun out. Obama's unpreparedness has been revealed. The people of the world are beginning to realize that our vulnerabilities have been exposed; We yearn for inspired leadership and trust too much. We are good and decent people and in today's world that makes us easy pickin's.
Almost universally the world reaction to Obama's presidency demostrates a total lack of confidence in him. Smiles and power cannot overcome the vomit rolling up in the mouths of people who watch as his plans and proposals frighten at best, and sicken at worst, those who know for certain that he is pursuing failure.
His first month in office has now been measured. It is the worst since 1933.
