The Obama administration has warned British officials that if the UK leaves Europe it will exclude itself from a US-EU trade and investment partnership potentially worth hundreds of billions of pounds a year, and that it was very unlikely that Washington would make a separate deal with Britain.

Using Chicago thug politics against the UK? Does Cameron still want to be Obama’s butt buddy?
How is this in the interest of the United States?
It isn’t right?
Why are we forcing them to stay in the EU, why would we not seek a trade deal with them if the current one is void, that’s crazy
The Kenyan MauMau hates the mother country.
These crony-capitalist trade deals are horse manure, fascism behind a facade of modern respectability. Any trade “deal” worth having is still available, and the ones that only come under the EU master agreement will require the UK to do something harmful to their own interests in return for receiving something harmful to another country’s interests. Better to hold out for free and fair trade and move into business areas that are self-sustaining without the sleaze and the web of payoffs.
Gosh, with friends like us. What ever happened to making an agreement with a sovereign nation? Why does everything have be “comprehensive” these days?

The EU is an attempt to recreate a new Soviet Union. It is run by unelected bureaucrats. Obama is backing the EU because it’s communist. It’s all about wealth redistribution. I’m sure that George Soros and other cockroaches will make lots of money off the crony capitalism that takes place. Obama’s message to Britain is simply, “Gee, that’s a nice economy you’ve got there. Shame is something should happen to it.”
The big-government/big-corporate criminal complex wants global totalitarian government with them in charge. No more complicated than that.
Only under Obama.
Under BHO’s “transformed” foreign policy,
anything that hurts Great Britain (or any of our other allies) is what our govt is pushing...
because it further weakens America
(and in the case of the UK, because BHO has a special animus)
The Bilderberg/World Government agenda at work.
Remember Brits - America may be your friend, BUT - Obama has an abiding dislike for you much like his Kenyan father did - not too different from the hate the Kenyan who killed the soldier has - they all have Kenyan roots. If the truth be known, hate festers within his heart and payback is on his mind.
This pres HATES the Brits.
The EU is highly undemocratic, like Obummer himself.
With the rise of UKIP in the UK, there is hope that the UK may free itself from the unelected leftist bureaucrats in Brussels...
A weakened EU undermines Obama’s hope to rule the world through his future leadership of the UN after his imperial presidency ends in the USA.
So! What will the Kenyan do when Nigel Farage is Prime Minister of the UK?
Trust Osama Obama to side with the filthy Maoists who currently run the EU.Don’t believe me when I say Maoist?...google “Jose Manuel Barosso”!
I want to hear what Nigel Farage has to say about this, I wish we could trade Obama for him.
“...and that it was very unlikely that Washington would make a separate deal with Britain.”
Until, at least, the first 10 minutes in office of the next Republican president.
It would be a great start to an extended apology from the US to Britain, for Obama’s crude, rude, impolite, insulting and repeated bad behavior towards them.
Probably the best thing would to immediately provide the UK with large amounts of inexpensive petroleum products, so that the price of energy in the UK was slashed, as they return to a real energy economy, away from the stupid they have embraced for two decades now.
This would be a huge stimulus to a British economy with hopefully a UKIP-Tory government.
Britain ... the new runaway slave from the EU?
