CNN was ‘thrilled’ with his interview last night on Al Arabiya(ms?). It was sickening to watch them slobbering all over Obama while Obama was slobbering all over the arab world.

Unbelievable!

Disturbing to say the least. He speaks of ‘the Americans’ as if he is not one of us.

God Save Our Republic!

Oh, this is a HUGE slap in the face to the drive-by’s. He seems to be going out of his WAY to p them off. As insulted as *I* feel about it, it’s ameliorated somewhat by the schadenfreude.

I don’t believe he is either. In fact, I am increasingly alarmed that he may be some kind of Manchurian candidate of America’s enemies!

Will we soon see the Islamic flag flying over the White House, as we have so long dreamed of and predicted?

“...Is that true? Is the meeting without precedent?

I’ve never heard of such a thing....”

I’ve believe its been done before. What makes this different is that THE ONE is the subject of several cases that was before the SCOTUS. This is a meeting that should never have taken place. Within a few days after this meeting, virtually ALL cases concerning his birth certificate and natural born status were wiped off the SCOTUS website. Very interesting timing there, don’t you think?

He don't look too "Manchurian" to me. But he sure as heck ain't from around here!

Seriously. Obama is Trouble.

yes I don’t think he has even talked to our best most reliable ally great Britain.

Funny how the media are not reporting this story either.

I really do not think I can take much more of this idiot.
Homo agenda at full speed, Sucking up to Muslims and the Arabs while ignoring those countries who have given their men and women along with many of them dying.

I never thought I would say this but Hillary would have been better than this dumb arse buffoon

watching 24 with Bauer last night and my wife asked me if there could be a chance that phony was groomed for this over 10 years ago.

Could he be an enemy of this country and he has been planning this for years along with Ayers

I said I actually think he was working for years to get into power and then collapse us form within, so far the signs have all indicated this.

He has no interest in America what so ever and I just hope the CIA,FBI,NSA etc are not telling him everything they know and do other wise our enemies will get to know as well.

lets not forget his infatuation with homosexuals.

Look at the white house agenda page, nearly half is for homo’s

he goes off to an Arab TV media to do his interview and ignores the American media. Well one would think they’d be well pissed off with that.

He calls Abbas for his first call and yet ignores our best allies who have sacrificed their men and women helping us.

This buff on has even said there is a war on terrorism he says we are at war with global warming
