One of the problems with seeing one's self as being infallible is that one tends to take a slack attitude towards doing one's own research. This usually leads to the tendency to commit errors. The overall effect is that those who believe in their own infallibility are inevitably finding themselves in the failure mode.
The glorious third world leader presently occupying our White House, Barack Obama, has just demonstrated this fact by iccorectly referring to the Falklands Islands as the Maldives.
It is bad enough that Comrade Obama has reflexively taken the third world position on the Falklands issue, but the least he could do is get the Argentine name for islands right.
Now before one of our occasional leftist readers starts ranting about how I treat the Right as always being right, I will point out that the State Department (usually referred to on this blog as the Department of Treason) under the direction the Republican Secretary of State Haig had essentially taken the Argentine side of the issue, and were working on a plan to let the Argies get away with their invasion of the Falklands.
Secretary Haig could at least make the effort to cook up an excuse for such a gross breach of diplomatic protocol in light of the ongoing Cold War. Our glorious leader Barack Obama has apparently and reflexively taken the third world view that Western nations are always wrong regardless of the actual facts on the ground.
I have to wonder how our glorious leader would respond if Comrade Putin had demanded the return of the state of Alaska to Russian control.
Of course I had to read about this story on the site of a British newspaper. The American media is not covering this story.
The original National Socialists in Germany had to establish a Reichsministry to bring the press under control. The American media is voluntarily covering the backside of our glorious Afrikanerfuherer.
Disgusting, isn't it?
