From Eric Dondero:

British Member of Parliament, distinguished Tory, and columnist for the London Telegraph Daniel Hannan has a column:

I admit it: I was wrong to have supported Barack Obama

Hannan outlines a laundry list of complaints with the Obama administration; his mismanaging of the BP oil spill, his love of the E.U. over British sovereignty, his support for disarmament, the fact that he's grown the U.S. Government by 30% since he's been in office.

But none of that was cause enough for him to retract his prior support. It's a foreign policy matter that has tipped the scales.

All these things are minor irritants compared to the way the Obama administration is backing Peronist Argentina’s claim to the Falkland Islands – or, as Obama’s people call them, “the Malvinas”. British troops were the only sizeable contingent to support the US in Iraq and Afghanistan. We have fought alongside America in most of the conflicts of the past hundred years. Yet, when the chips are down, Obama lines up with Hugo Chávez and Daniel Ortega against us.

Not that we should feel singled out. The Obama administration has scorned America’s other established friends. It has betrayed Poland and the Czech Republic, whose Atlanticist governments had agreed to accept the American missile defence system at immense political cost, only to find the project cancelled. It has alienated Israel and India. It has even managed to fall out with Canada over its “Buy American” rules and its decision to drill in disputed Arctic waters. Never has there been a worse time to be a US ally.
