Gee, wasn’t Obama the one who lectured us during the campaign about the need to learn foreign languages? And yet he doesn’t know Spanish?

Yo quiero vomitar.

How many tyrant buttocks will Obama kiss before he finally makes a friend? His playground diplomacy doesn’t seem to be working. Maybe after we start sending billions in aid to these dictators, one will smile and pat him on the head.

Obama is a disgrace – his behavior is shameful, and his disregard for the people of this nation is obvious. I hope everyone who voted for this excuse wakes up in a cold sweat with regret for what they have done.

Buddies up with Chavez, and profiles U S Veterans? This has got to stop!

cowboy diplomacy

Real cowboy diplomacy involves a rope & a fast horse.
Bush never quite pulled it off IMHO.
Too bad for the lost opportunities.

“Can you imagine the world outrage if a US President gave a book in English to a non-English speaking leader?”

Yes, I can. There would be absolutely none.

I’m sure he could be helpful to the O in explaining how to control public uprisings. Maybe Chavez could be the new Czar of Energy or something.

Oh my gawd, did you people see that? Our marxist president actually accepted a book from the other evil marxists.I will run into my bunker now, because the book accepting is the first sign of the End Times. Shaking the evil marxist’s hand was bad enough, accepting the book is surely the end of the United States as we know it. Congress should immediately begin impeachment hearings on the evil Kenyan marxist, commie,pinko,faggot known as the One.We can’t let this Obama guy run around the world talking to other world leaders,especially that Chavez devil guy. But we can buy oil from the evil marxist’s country. Business is one thing, our evil president shaking hands with their evil president is another. Woe to our country with the evil accepting of a book, which I am sure is also evil. When will the evil end? Actually the woman in the Glenn Beck 9/12 town hall meeting had it right, we should burn all the liberal books. I bet the book Chavez gave Obama is one of dem evil, liberal books.When will this national nightmare end? Obama reaching out to our enemies. Didn’t Obama see how well Bush cowboy diplomacy worked? Obama needs to be more bellicose and shrill. Only 3 1/2 more years and then we can coronate Caribou Barbie as our queen.

What I posted on the other thread:

Dayum…I go to a nice football game, come back and I still shake my head as to the direction this country is going to…Forget about black holes, unknown dimensions, Bermuda Triangle; this is some scary stuff! I am gonna end up rocking in a corner, holding my legs.

Once again, fellow conservatives, be aware that you are vindicated in your pre-election analysis of our clown President, and his rather obvious associations with lots and lots of people who hate America.

Imagine for a moment President Bush playing buddy-pal with someone who called our sitting President “the devil”.

If we were wrong about Obama in any way, it was that he is an even more pathetic clown than we suggested.

I don’t usually use this word but BO is just a p*ssy and the whole world knows it. He proves it wherever he goes, over & over. He is going to make Jimmy Carter look like the Marlboro man by the time it’s all said & done. Man this is depressing.

“It’s unlikely that as a consequence of me shaking hands or having a polite conversation with Mr. Chavez that we are endangering the strategic interest of the United States,” Obama told reporters at the close of a Summit of the Americas.

It’s very likely that as a consequence of him shaking hands with Mr. Chavez he has demoralized any would-be opposition to Chavez in Venezuela.

That picture will be shown far and wide in Venezuela and it will be accompanied by reports of how friendly Obama and Chavez are. Anyone who would be willing to stick their necks out to oppose Chavez will figure “why bother, we don’t stand a chance.”

You, Mr. President, were just used as a tool for Chavez’s propaganda. You either realize it and are OK with being used, or are too naive to realize what you’ve done.

Either way, you damaged opposition to Chavez in Venezuela and you damaged the credibility of the U.S. as a champion of freedom and democracy. Great job.
