Gutsy move: Lech Walesa shuns Obama
Poland’s Solidarity-era legend Lech Walesa said he would not accept an invitation to meet with fellow Nobel winner US President Barack Obama.
The Democrats have put their propaganda machine into overdrive recently in an attempt to convince us that giving the order to kill Osama Bin Laden was a “gutsy move” by President Obama.
They could learn a few things from Lech Walesa, the gutsy Polish labor leader who stood up to the Soviet Union in the 1980s. Looks like he’s not done being gutsy yet.
Breitbart.com has the details:
Lech Walesa, Poland’s Solidarity-era legend, ex-president and 1983 Nobel Peace Prize winner said Friday he would not accept an invitation to meet with fellow Nobel winner US President Barack Obama.
“It’s difficult to tell journalists what you’d like to say to the president of a superpower. This time I won’t tell him, I won’t meet him, it doesn’t suit me,” Walesa told Poland’s public broadcaster TVP.
Obama is due to arrive in Poland later Friday after the G8 summit in France.
Walesa was originally scheduled to meet Obama Saturday along with other key figures in Poland’s post-1989 transition from communism to democracy.
Walesa stood up to the brutal communists of the Soviet Union. He shouldn’t have any trouble handling an effete socialist from the United States.

Obama honors Polish president by burying one in the 14th bunker
The Poles are pissed. And who can blame them? President Obama used volcanic ash as an excuse to play golf instead of attending the funeral of Polish President Lech Kaczynski.
The Poles are pissed. And who can blame them? President Obama used volcanic ash as an excuse to play golf instead of attending the funeral of Polish President Lech Kaczynski.
The Washington Times has the details:
On a cool but sun-drenched Sunday, the president and three golfing companions went to Andrews Air Force Base to play 18 holes. It is the 32nd time Mr. Obama has played golf since taking office Jan. 20, 2009, according to CBS Radio’s Mark Knoller.
After canceling the Poland trip on Saturday, the White House announced that Mr. Obama had no public schedule for Sunday. He was to have arrived in Krakow in the morning, attend the 2 p.m. funeral and leave for home by 5 p.m., arriving back at the White House after midnight.
Polish President Lech Kaczynski and his wife, Maria, along with dozens of top Polish government officials were killed April 10 when their airplane went down in heavy fog after clipping a tree on approach to Smolensk, Russia.
Mr. Obama has not gone to the Polish Embassy in Washington since the accident, but Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton and Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr. both have. There, they signed a condolence book.
French President Sarkozy and German Chancellor Merkel also used the volcanic ash as an excuse to cancel. But other world leaders managed to get to Poland using alternate methods of transportation.
Russian President Medvedev flew from Moscow for the funeral. The President of Slovenian drove 500 miles to Krakow. The Romanian President helicoptered to northwestern Romania, then drove through Hungary and Slovakia. The Estonian Prime Minister made an 18-hour drive to the funeral. The President of the Czech Republic traveled by car and train. And Viktor Yushchenko, former President of the Ukraine, left Kiev with his wife early Saturday morning to make the long drive to Poland.
President Obama said, “Hey, I made a long drive, too. Nearly 200 yards on the 7th hole.”

Why you’ll never see a statue of Barack Obama in Eastern Europe
In Eastern Europe, they don’t think of Barack Obama as the first black president. They think of him as the first black-hearted president. Obama announced that he is scrapping plans for a U.S. missile defense shield designed to protect the Czech Republic and Poland, leaving the two democracies to twist in the Russian wind.

Obama announced that he is scrapping plans for a U.S. missile defense shield designed to protect the Czech Republic and Poland, leaving the two democracies to twist in the Russian wind.
Czech Premier Jan Fischer announced that Obama has informed him that “his government is pulling out of plans to build a missile defense radar on Czech territory.”
“The same happened with Poland. Poland was informed in the same way about this intention,” Fischer announced.

Freedom fighters: Reagan versus Obama
This video clip perfectly contrasts Reagan’s outspoken support for Poland’s freedom fighters to the Obama administration’s tepid non-comments about Iran.
There’s a reason they erect statues of Ronald Reagan in Eastern Europe. It’s the same reason they won’t be erecting any statues of Barack Obama in Iran.

A tale of two presidents: Reagan inspired the people of Poland, Obama sells out the people of Iran
Ronald Reagan knew how to inspire the people of Poland in 1981, unlike Barack Obama, who is selling out the people of Iran in 2009.
Here’s what Ronald Reagan said in 1981 when the people of Poland revolted against their autocratic rulers:
The Polish nation, speaking through Solidarity, has provided one of the brightest, bravest moments of modern history. The people of Poland are giving us an imperishable example of courage and devotion to the values of freedom in the face of relentless opposition. Left to themselves, the Polish people would enjoy a new birth of freedom. But there are those who oppose the idea of freedom, who are intolerant of national independence, and hostile to the European values of democracy and the rule of law.
Two Decembers ago, freedom was lost in Afghanistan; this Christmas, it’s at stake in Poland. But the torch of liberty is hot. It warms those who hold it high. It burns those who try to extinguish it.
Here’s what Barack Obama said in 2009 when the people of Iran protested a fraudulent election:
“It’s not productive given the history of U.S.-Iranian relations to be seen as meddling.”
Way to go, Mr. President. You put the fear of God into the theocracy with that one.
