Gee... I wonder why that might be? It's not like we have a president who bows down and kisses Muslim Kings!

Obama more popular than U.S. among Arabs: survey Sun May 10, 2009 7:02pm EDT
By Paul Eckert
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President Barack Obama's popularity in leading Arab countries far outstrips that of the United States, suggesting he could be able to boost goodwill in the region toward his country, a survey showed on Sunday.
Obama, set to give a major speech to the Muslim world in Egypt next month, "currently enjoys widespread optimism among citizens of that region that he will have a positive effect on their own country, the Middle East, the United States and indeed the world," the polling outfit Ipsos said.
Ipsos said its poll, conducted in March, involved 7,000 adults in Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Lebanon, Egypt and Jordan.
Of those surveyed, 33 percent had a favorable view of the United States, 43 percent had a negative view, 14 percent were neutral and 10 percent said they did not know, Ipsos said.
In contrast, Obama received favorable ratings averaging 48 percent in the region as a whole. Approval ran as high as 58 percent in Jordan and was lowest among Egyptians, who gave Obama favorable ratings of 35 percent, Ipsos said.
Only 22 percent of Egyptians expressed a favorable view of the United States, the lowest of the six countries surveyed.

No kidding, Sherlock! He’s one of them; best ally Muzzies and OBL have had EVER. Makes me want to puke and makes our patriots in Arlington roll in their graves. He’s the biggest national disgrace in American History!
See tag line
And what a coincidence; we give more aid every year to Egypt than to the rest of the Arab world combined (apart from Iraq.)
I'm thinking of a very simple solution. We keep all our filthy Zionist money, and Egypt will no longer suffer the humiliation of accepting it. Everybody's happy!

How frightening is it when the entire media is GLAD the muslims love obama but still hate the US???
Jordan is the most anti semitic country on the Earth.
That speaks volumes about this President.
I recall not one journo was there and the journalists werre upset that they were not invited
I do how ever think there is a possibility it could have been on the Koran , we have no way of knowing either way, just how bozo likes it.
There are far too many things going on about this muslims crap and his constant talking to them
I would wager with anyone he says he has converted while in office
I know a girl who works for the FBI...She swears it is true that he took the oath with a koran...I kind of blow her off when she brings it up but she just may be right.
Ping! Not sure whether to laugh or cry on this one.
He’s widely loved by a worldwide gaggle of homicidal, dogmatic idiots who have no respect at all for personal freedoms. Why isn’t that surprising?
Mooselimbs showing “respect” for a coward...what does that tell you?
Example: "Eleven hours later, Chief Justice John Roberts was ushered into the White House on Wednesday night to re-administer the oath of office to President Barack Obama because the original oath on Tuesday had a word out of sequence.
White House counsel Greg Craig said the move was made out of “an abundance of caution.” Obama’s second swearing-in, devoid of the initial event’s pomp, took place at 7:35 p.m. in the Map Room before of a few aides and reporters. The chief justice was wearing a court robe. “Are you ready to take the oath?” Roberts said. “I am,” Obama said, “and we’re going to do it very slow

Kenya.
We all have reason to fear, the outcome of next week's meetings with Netanyahu. Even the King of Jordan is now admitting probable wide-scale war in the Middle East within the next year.
If the empty suit thought it would add to his bank account he would throw them under them under the bus as quickly as he has done to America.
thank you for that, i just remember how the media did not like being invited but as you say......
I still would not put it past him tough and I’ll always keep all options open about him
again thanks for that
Maybe we can trade Obuttboy for some nice goats?
Big surprise.
Muslims like other muslims.
So, this means the jihad is over?
Gee... I wonder why that might be? It's not like we have a president who bows down and kisses Muslim Kings!
