“Sorry ‘bout that...”

“She?” is merely showing what her husband is lacking and who really is wearing the pants in the household.

The Wookie is ValJar’s co-president. 0b0z0 is their house “boy.”

Even though she ugly as sin that is still an insult to an American First Lady.

Question: If the reason for the visit of 30-some “bipartisan” policy advisers was to shore up shaky relations, why would MO opt at this time to make such a controversial political statement? Seems like a stunt.

Consider the source here, but the point is valid...

http://www.slate.com/articles/news_and_politics/war_stories/2015/01/barack_obama_s_visit_to_saudi_arabia_the_president_understands_how_important.html

The express reason for the visit was to pay respect to the royal family on the occasion of King Abdullah’s death, but Obama used the opportunity to declare—in a more palpable way than he has with any other ally of late—the primacy of this particular special relationship. This is the reason he brought along not only his own top advisers, but also tokens of bipartisanship (notably Sen. John McCain) and, more significant, key foreign-policy hands of the Bush presidencies (James Baker, Brent Scowcroft, Condoleezza Rice, Stephen Hadley), when Saudi ties were golden.

The longtime coziness between the oil kingdom and the leader of the free world has gone cold for some time and turned frigid in 2013, when Obama refrained from bombing Syria and undertook negotiations with Iran—the Saudis’ two main enemies. Those moves came in the wake of Obama’s abandonment of Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak, their main ally, during the Arab Spring protests of 2011.

At the low point, Saudi Arabia’s intelligence chief and former longtime ambassador to Washington, Prince Bandar Sultan al-Saud, publicly grumbled that the kingdom was losing trust in Obama’s judgment and might reassess the whole web of relations between the two powers.

Because it isn't his wedding ring. He's had it since college days.

Don't know if we can link to the site but the story can be searched by the caption, "Obama has been wearing the ring since attending occidental college" or first sentences, "As a student at Harvard Law School, then-bachelor Barack Obama’s practice of wearing a gold band on his wedding-ring finger puzzled his colleagues. Now, newly published photographs of Obama from the 1980s show that the ring Obama wore on his wedding-ring finger as an unmarried student is the same ring Michelle Robinson put on his finger at the couple’s wedding ceremony in 1992."

“If one of the men would offer to shake her hand, the First Lady would oblige but mostly stood back and smiled while they passed.”

In my culture (USA), correct manners dictate that the woman should offer her hand first. Otherwise the man is out of line with the handshake that he offers first.

Did this sorry bunch ever get any protocol training?

The following information found elsewhere on FR.

>>>> Apparently the writing on the ring states:

“There is no god but allah” in a fanciful type of arabic writing.

لا إله إلا الله”

Does he have to be covered?

Covered with a burka, or by the media?

Either way, it's probably a State secret and don't think we would be informed.

Here they are. An Arabian Golf beach stroll followed by an Arabian night; to make the old story title: "1002 Nights."

And no, he doesn't have to be covered. His GF her shoes off for an impending prayer!

From the article:

“The Saudis, as the region’s leading Sunni power, were also trying to draw America into their war against the Shiites, and Bandar was clearly peeved that Obama wouldn’t play along. The Saudis took his reticence as a personal slight; “

This is an incontrovertible proof that the one who took this decision is none other than the Iranian-born ValJar, the REAL POTUS.

But, FReepers knew this for years.

That reminds me of the time a couple of wogs on Cairo TV, the more devout of whom had a visible bump on his forehead, were prattling excitedly in Arabic about a YouTube video from the US (where YouTube was invented, for those of you in Rio Linda). It was 9 September 2012. It was one lousy movie, but here it is, as presented:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lnM_NuW0r9M&t=1m45s

The relevant female is strictly blurred, as is the custom in woggish countries.

One of the actresses in the blurred out movie claims claims to have been deceived into making the flick. You can see an unblurred excerpt here.

A couple of days later, a US diplomatic outpost in Libya was overrun by wogs, resulting in the death of four Americans, and the Obama regime blamed the video, having no other excuse for its impotence.

After 9/11 my reaction was that we ought to understand why they did what they did and then do more of it.
