Obama's Mideast trip seen as an investment
Washington Times ^ | 6/7/09 | Christina Bellantoni

PARIS | After a whirlwind trip abroad that he capped by taking his family on a private sightseeing tour here, President Obama returned to Washington believing his administration made a down payment on his core goal of helping forge peace in the Middle East.

"He feels very, very good about the last four days, and I think he feels it's going to pay dividends in terms of our initiatives in the future," Mr. Obama's senior political adviser, David Axelrod, told reporters at the conclusion of the president's final event at the 65th anniversary of D-Day.

The close of Mr. Obama's trip abroad -- which included a major address to the Muslim world in Egypt, a stop in Saudi Arabia and a tribute to World War II veterans -- was punctuated by French fans who followed his family's every move.

With a few exceptions, the ME and Europe loved Obie-the-one. (Note mention in article of Paris streets lined with worshippers, unlike Bush's protestors.)

All this means Americans will see it just as Axelrod and the MSM want them to - as an overwhelming success. That leads to further anesthetization of the people, thinking they are in "good hands."

In reality, the whole world is under a strong delusion...rendering them unable to see, much less respond to, their destruction.

I sort of thought he was just repaying the investment that the Muslims had made when they purchased the presidency for him.

That’s assuming that Americans care about what the French think.

Every thing the many does is described as an “investment”.

But it looks like “capital destruction to me”.

Margaret Thatcher stated that socialism was a fine form of government until you ran out of other people’s money.

I hate that man-Hussein-with a purple passion. I cannot believe that enough Americans voted for this treacherous America-hating covert muslim and marxist to be leader of this once-free nation. Every speech he makes, I hate him more. Every speech is another time he spits on the flag and our history. The only satisfaction would be in seeing all the stupid people American-Idol voters as their eyes are opened, the hard way. If they're not TOO stupid to ever see the light. What would this traitor have to do, more than he has, for the stupid people to realise he does NOT have American interests at heart? That he would allow this country to be attacked and subjected to dhimmitude as soon as he would bow to the Saudi king?

"President Obama returned to Washington believing his administration made a down payment on his core goal of helping forge peace in the Middle East the destruction of Israel and America at the hands of nuclear armed jihadists.

There, fixed it...

I know that Axelrod is Jewish, but Wow, this photo bears an uncanny resemblence to a certain Nazi dictator about 70 yrs ago or so. I think Axelrod is fully part of the Unholy Left-wing / Islamic alliance that David Horowitz has written a book about. Left wing ideology ALWAYS trumps religion, family ties, ethnic background, economic strata, cultural background, etc.

I would think that Yes, indeed, David Axelrod feels very good about the "investment" that 0boooooombashiite made in pandering appeasing, capitulating, apologetic remarks to his Uzzlim brothers and the partitioning & destruction of Israel. Fortunately the end of that script has already been written and God himself will intervene on Istrael's behalf.

Every president since Truman has tried, and failed, to bring “peace” to the Middle East. Only Our Lord’s return or the complete and total destruction of Israel will bring an end to fighting in that area. Guess which one the White House is aiming at...

Oh yeah. Well I don't just hate him, I loathe him. I revile him. I despise him. I think he is a Kenyan pig-dog! I hope he goes and boils his bottom, the son of a silly person. I blow my nose at him, so-called Obama President, him and all his silly socialish czarets. Thpppppt! Thppt! Thppt! He is an empty headed animal food trough wiper! I fart in his general direction! His mother was a hamster and his father smelt of elderberries!

He has the brain of a duck, you know. I unclog my nose in his direction, the son of a window-dresser! I wave my private parts at his aunties, the cheesy second hand electric donkey-bottom biter. He is a socialist bed-wetting type. I burst my pimples at him, the illegitimate-faced bugger! Thpppt!

Will all apologies to Monty Python and the French who apparently are showing better sense than American voters by turning away from the socialists.

I know we are marching toward a “peace agreement” - signaling the beginning of the end.

“I know that Axelrod is Jewish, but Wow, this photo bears an uncanny resemblence to a certain Nazi dictator about 70 yrs ago or so.”

It was his “radical chic” pose for some Cjicago mag...I photoshopped the ‘stache into the narrow one in this pic, but that was ALL I did...the hair is his, and those cold, dead eyes...

And I fear the payoff will be a bunch of dead Americans.
