Obama thinks USA is not respected in world?

I DEFINITELY think the entire world is making fun of us...

I agree with the others answers...The Republicans need to come out of the box they live in....Other countries do think America is a joke....Obama is not asking for love...sounds to me like he wants to get Bin Lad-den and get out. Like we should have done in the first place...and lets not forget we wouldn't be over there if Republicans didn't go into office in the first place...Do you think it was accidental that they bombed the twin towers for the second time the second time a Bush got in office...??? C'mon dude..Face whats real...Fighting for this country is Awesome...But man, lets get the job done...and do it right...!

i don't think that is the statement that he is trying to make. There are a lot of Countries around the world that don't likthe USA. The countries that you have listed make up a small percentage of the world.

They don't really count as the rest of the world

The stereotypes from right here (France) could be that US people: - are too religious, - ought to attempt to care concerning the planet/pollutants, a minimum of somewhat tiny bit - take too lots pastimes in weapons, - are over-proud (u . s . a .= surest united states of america, the suited, the richest, the surest, bla bla bla) - and regrettably for them, stay in an exceedingly violent united states of america. we don't certainly think of that all of us people help the (stupid and ineffective) Iraq conflict. I do agree, French are not snotty!

The Bush Administration is not respected around the world. Of course the world will respect the only super power

Umm no France doesn't care for us and Britain has changed the dominant Parliament because of Blair's support of the world.

You obviously have never been out of country....

I have and have so much family in Europe and trust me they do not respect us, our dollar is worthless there now and they think we are such fools for voting Bush in office twice. Also they have a great universal health care and education programs...where we don't. Also started a war in Iraq when we should have been in Afghanistan That is why we are not respected!

The USA has indeed lost a lot of its respect in the world in the past eight years. We are not the revered super power we used to be.

We aren't. I went to Europe a bunch in the 90's and they thought we were arrogant and obnoxious. Now, they think we are bullies. No he doesn't think we need to be Iran's love! Tony Blair - former Prime Minister of England, LOVED Clinton and disliked Bush- why do you think they left us in Iraq alone? They new the war was BS.

He's right America doesn't respect the world at large.

Yep. However he is not that bright when it comes to knowing what the difference of right and wrong is.
