Snubbed by Obama, Sarkozy turns away from US

#11  Who advises Obama on these things?

Why would he need advice on protocol? He spent the first part of his life living in Indonesia, then visited Pakistan with a friend while in college. It's that international experience that makes him at home and welcome anywhere in the world.

/I'm sure he really believes it, too. Unfortunately his expat brat stage was not long enough, nor varied enough, for that to be true. Had he gone to the right Swiss boarding school for his secondary education instead of that expensive Hawaiian thing, it might actually have been.

Ok, a hotter First Lady, but don't tell Michelle that...

#9  Thanks Barbara. And I might be brash in pointing out that just b/c his mother hails caucasoid doesn't refute his anti-white leanings. I'm almost certain this just amplifys the leanings. I'm just as some other dictators were part whatever background they hated with murderous rage.

#7  All I can say is that I hope all those snotty Euros lefty-intellectual-poseurs who were so keen on Obama during the election are quite pleased with this. What was the old curse - Becareful what you ask for, because you may get it!
They've certainly gotten it now, all right. Hope they're enjoying not having to deal with that cowboy, Bush!
(Anyone know where to find and link that little poster of GWB with the tagline "Miss me, yet?" That would be SO appropriate!)

#6  This guy our President misuses his resources at every chance. I wager he is not ignorant of what refusing dinner means,having kissed as many butts as he has done to get here in our oval office. He just hates European white patriarchy (or matriarchy in Britain's case)that much, IMHO. I suspect Obama is deeply racist.
Any Caucasians in his admin are there for what they add to his agenda, which I'd say is maintain appearances while he is subverting democracy and American prestige and

You are absolutely useless.

#4  By any standard, visiting a foreign country and refusing a dinner invitation from its head of state is a grievous insult. It is simply not done.

Who advises Obama on these things?

#3  In less than a year he has tranformed America

Exactly what He said He would do. A pity that just over half the electorate failed to understand what He meant.

#2  our President has done a great job of snubbing a lot of our friends needlessly, such as Sarkozy. Queen Elizabeth and the Brit PM(senior moment). He has foolishly, some say, taken on Fox News and some radio personalities. But he makes up for it by cosying up to brutal hard-left dictators and surrounding himself with various home-grown far-left crazies. He has made a total shambles of our economy. Whatta Guy! In less than a year he has tranformed America, We will never be the same again. We have not been this united since 9-11.

#1  "There are no enemies on the left, and no friends on the right." "Actions don't matter. Politics matters." "The purpose of government is to reward your friends and punish your enemies." "You can't make a pile of broken eggs without breaking eggs."
