President Barack Obama, who had warned against Britain quitting the European Union, said Friday that Washington would respect the British voters’ decision to do just that.
The US leader said Britain and the European Union would both remain “indispensable partners” of the United States and that the “special relationship” with London would endure.
“The people of the United Kingdom have spoken, and we respect their decision,” Obama said, in a statement from his White House office.
But, in a nod to Washington’s frustration that its ally has been unwilling to back a European project seen as a cornerstone of Western power, Obama also paid tribute to the EU.

The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
Obama the Globalist can barely hide his deep-seated anger and contempt.
How dare those insolent rubes defy me! He likes centralized despotism more than liberty.
That’s the problem right there.
Yea, after threatening Britain that they would be put at the back of the queue for trade with U.S. if they vote to leave.
“President Barack Obama, who had warned against Britain quitting the European Union, said Friday that Washington would respect the British voters’ decision to do just that.”
How benevolent of him.
Guy is a loser, dumb.
Jug Ears once again trying to make himself appear relevant.
The British voters made it perfectly clear last night that they don't care a bit what leftist, globalist politicians might or might not say or do.
As far as they are concerned Jug Ears Obama can go pound salt with David Cameron.
let's hope that American voters have the wisdom and guts to follow their example in November.
Soetero wants to be queen of the world. If anyone doesn’t march lock step with him he gets all pissy. UK and the arrogant Brit warning and his speech today to “global entrepreneurs” was about the same,”...we have the tools for you..” Yeah as if entrepreneurs want government YOU DINT BUILD DAT YO” bs.
(Trump needs to go here => bilateral trade deal with Britian!)
Barack Obama’s White House Hate The United Kingdom?

Ever since President Obama’s first day when he removed the bust of Winston Churchill from the Oval Office I have wondered: Just how anti-British is Obama?
The oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico illustrated his contempt for our country with his repeated references and heavy emphasis to British Petroleum. But he’s gone one better this week. His Trade Envoy Michael Froman said, and was endlessly quoted by the BBC, that the USA would not seek a bilateral trade deal with the UK if we left the European Union (EU).
This is all bizarre. The USA has a trade deal with Oman, so why on Earth would it not want one with its greatest friend in the world?
It is clear that Obama supports supranational government and the new global order. And I must congratulate Breitbart London for exposing the fact that both Froman and his wife had previously worked for the European Commission.
Jeb Bush has provided the first counter-punch by making it clear that of course America would favour such a trade deal if the UK were to leave the EU.

Like it. Thanks.
