Obama Treated Like King In Saudi Arabia
Associated Press ^ | June 3, 2009

RIYADH, Saudi Arabia -- From the moment Barack Obama stepped off Air Force One, his first visit to Saudi Arabia as president was filled with, well, pomp and pageantry fit for a king.

His host was, after all, the monarch who presides over the oil-rich nation.

King Abdullah staged an elaborate welcome ceremony, showered Obama with compliments, put up the president at his lavish desert horse farm and gave him a gift -- a bulky gold necklace that the king says carries special meaning.

Seems like he was treated more like one of that King's Prince's...but only after he personally paid homage to the King at their last meeting.




Notice today how today he respectfully walks a step or two behind the Saudi King

Christan women are infidels and not allowed into the kingdom of Allah.

The Wayword prince has arrived home to Islam.

Our Manchurian President is welcomed to Islam.

That ‘necklace’ has ‘special meaning’ alright. It’s Obama’s acceptance of subservience. Chains of gold...

“He must be a king.”

“Why?”

“He hasn’t got s—t all over him.”

Firs picture of Obama kneeling to the King.

I see his butt is up in the air this time rather than his nose. I don’t know which is worse; but it describes this President to a tee.

Wow, I think I just fainted...

Am sure Obama is loving the 'king thing'; and plans on implementing 'back home'; as much of this MO as possible. . .

He just needs a little more time. And the way things are going; he will get it.

Have been wondering if. . .since we are a Muslim Country. .if that means we 'thank a Muslim' for it being such a great one.

Will Obama be allowed to keep that ‘bling’ he received? If that was ‘real gold’ better, l8kt; it’s worth would be significant.

What utter BS. He is being treated no differently than other US Presidents have been treated. Maybe with a little less respect. AP reporters are so in the tank it is pathetic.

May God give us strength to endure the next few years.
