President Obama did not apologize. Get your facts straight

I can honestly say HUBDUB fails to adhere to facts for settlement porpuses.

They do not seetle questions with facts, but rather by judment of who ever is settling the prediction at the time. They focus on pleasing the majority. At least that has been my experience thus far.

My advice is to abstain from making predictions that leave too much room for interpretation.

The President's Apology Tour
Great leaders aren't defined by consensus.
http://online.wsj.com/article/SB124044156269345357.html
President Barack Obama has finished the second leg of his international confession tour. In less than 100 days, he has apologized on three continents for what he views as the sins of America and his predecessors.

Mr. Obama told the French (the French!) that America "has shown arrogance and been dismissive, even derisive" toward Europe. In Prague, he said America has "a moral responsibility to act" on arms control because only the U.S. had "used a nuclear weapon." In London, he said that decisions about the world financial system were no longer made by "just Roosevelt and Churchill sitting in a room with a brandy" -- as if that were a bad thing. And in Latin America, he said the U.S. had not "pursued and sustained engagement with our neighbors" because we "failed to see that our own progress is tied directly to progress throughout the Americas."

By confessing our nation's sins, White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs said that Mr. Obama has "changed the image of America around the world" and made the U.S. "safer and stronger." As evidence, Mr. Gibbs pointed to the absence of protesters during the Summit of the Americas this past weekend.

That's now the test of success? Anti-American protesters are a remarkably unreliable indicator of a president's wisdom. Ronald Reagan drew hundreds of thousands of protesters by deploying Pershing and cruise missiles in Europe. Those missiles helped win the Cold War.

There is something ungracious in Mr. Obama criticizing his predecessors, including most recently John F. Kennedy. ("I'm grateful that President [Daniel] Ortega did not blame me for things that happened when I was three months old," Mr. Obama said after the Nicaraguan delivered a 52-minute anti-American tirade that touched on the Bay of Pigs.) Mr. Obama acts as if no past president -- except maybe Abraham Lincoln -- possesses his wisdom.
...

Or perhaps his humility?

The sentence

"Mr. Obama told the French (the French!) that America "has shown arrogance and been dismissive, even derisive" toward Europe."

is explainatary in itself. the "the French!" insertion shows exactly the "arrogance", "dismissive, even derisive" behavior towards "old" Europe.

Seems I don't even need to argue against notablenotices anymore, now he gives the counter-arguments himself.

...hand shaking reaches an all time low.

Yeah, a bow-wow that might land him in the dog house with some blue dogs who already feel he is barking up the wrong tree...
