President Obama says the loss of Polish President Kaczynski is ‘devastating’
April 10th, 2010 - 8:15 pm
WASHINGTON, D.C. (BNO NEWS) — President Obama on Saturday released the following statement after Polish President Lech Kaczynski, his wife, and other senior government figures were killed in a plane crash in western Russia.
“Today, I called Polish Prime Minister Tusk to express Michelle’s and my deepest condolences to the people of Poland on the tragic deaths this morning of President Lech Kaczynski, First Lady Maria Kaczynski, and all who were traveling with them to commemorate the 70th anniversary of the Katyn massacre. Our thoughts and prayers are with the Kaczynski family, the loved ones of those killed in this tragic plane crash, and the Polish nation.
Today’s loss is devastating to Poland, to the United States, and to the world. President Kaczynski was a distinguished statesman who played a key role in the Solidarity movement, and he was widely admired in the United States as a leader dedicated to advancing freedom and human dignity. With him were many of Poland’s most distinguished civilian and military leaders who have helped to shape Poland’s inspiring democratic transformation. We join all the people of Poland in mourning their passing.
Today, there are heavy hearts across America. The United States cherishes its deep and abiding bonds with the people of Poland. Those bonds are represented in the strength of our alliance, the friendships among our people, and the extraordinary contributions of Polish-Americans who have helped to shape our nation.

“..mini EMP..”
Agree. I’m no aviation expert, but don’t planes land at night? Not to worry, though. Ex-KGB boss V. Putin will fill us in on all the details.
Sounds like a KGB (putin) hit.
putin: “Nothing to see here, move along.”
the kenyan must be laughing about this. One of the few foreign leaders he didn’t bow down to.
My gut feeling is that this is a tragic accident. Even my Polish wife thinks it's unlikely the Russians were involved, though she's usually deeply suspicious of them.
Today, I called Polish Prime Minister Tusk to express Michelle’s and my deepest condolences to the people of Poland
Yes: Most Presidents would call and offer the Condolences of the country, not themselves.
The narcissist in Chief actually believes someone in Poland actually cares what he and the wookie feel.
Obama is as inauthentic as one can get; when it comes the truth behind his words.
I hope he at least had the decency to wait until AFTER the crash to call.
Hey Zer0, why do you care?
He wasn’t a fellow muzzie!
Hmmmmm. My tinfoil hat began tingling immediately upon hearing the news of the crash but this has little reminder has pegged my meter.
Which makes me wonder; are there digital tinfoil hats available yet?
I’m just wondering..
Exactly what were the new conditions of this “reset”
Obama made all these backroom deals for Healthcare.
What kind of backroom deals is he making with international relations?
I'm guessing we'll find out AFTER they've been implemented.
Just like "health care".
Oh, and by the way, I also believe that most, if not all, the money collected in taxes by our President/Citizen Of The World in the name of health care will end up in the slimy palms of our international "relatives".
