Obama, Clinton Silent As Ortega Rails Against U.S.

Socialist Nicaraguan President Daniel Ortega spent 50 minutes railing against the evil United States and all Obama and Hillary Clinton could do is sit there, take a few notes and remain silent.

When our President and Secretary of State are afraid to defend their own country against attacks from dictators across the globe, it says all you need to know about their true core beliefs. (Yes, Obama likely agrees with Ortega in many ways.)

*Update*
Obama does defend himself. From Gateway Pundit:

"To move forward, we cannot let ourselves be prisoners of past disagreements. I'm grateful that President Ortega did not blame me for things that happened when I was three months old. Too often, an opportunity to build a fresh partnership of the Americas has been undermined by stale debates. We've all heard these arguments before."

Shameful. It's about time Obama was honest with the American people - just tell us that you agree with all these anti-American sentiments.
