I am sure that I am not the only one to see this:

TOTUS is ignoring Europe for the same reason he and the Wookie were so rude to Queen Elizbeth and why he insulted Gordon Brown; he is firmly rejecting the values of the West. Bowing to the Saudi king and to the Japanese emperor tells the world that it is their warped worldview that he values.

Obama is just expanding his dislike from European white dead men (the nation’s founders) to the current European white people (especially if they are considered America’s allies - why should it only happen to Israel?).

If the Europeans want some love from Obama, they need to let him raise their taxes.

ROTFLMAO!

There is saying that the Euros ought to know: you make your bed, you sleep in it. The Euros did everything they could to trash Bush (their friend) and basically kiss Obama’s feet.

Well now you got Obama - don’t come crying to us when we told you so.

LOL! Quite true.

Truthfully, he is totally divorced from the West. As someone up thread said, his first priority is the destruction of the United States. He will get on with destroying Europe when he’s done with us...unless their imported Muslim workers and layabouts get it done first.

This is a man who sees himself as an avenging angel for the Third World. Myself, I say vote GOP in 2010, support Palin, and stock up on canned goods and ammo.

I live in Europe and I don´t know of anyone who cares - it must be just the NYT that needs something to write about.

Whatever the exact answer — and it could be that a fatigued Barack Obama didn’t want the physical strain of a trans-Atlantic trip days before a weeklong tour of Asia

In eight full years of Bush the NYTs never gave Bush, any Conservative or Republican this kind of slobbering sweet treatment.

FYI: According to Wiki, "John Vinocur is a journalist for the Paris-based newspaper The International Herald Tribune."

This is an opinion piece, not a news story. Still, considering the source it's pretty strong for the NYT.

Two reasons:

1. Most Europeans are caucasion, which he hates;

2. Muslims have already taken over much of Europe, so there's nothing for him to do.

I never have heard so many comments about BO being tired. Reporters always saying how tired he must be. Give me a break, he’s only 48 years old. There were never any comments about Bush being tired that I remember.
