Disasters are above Barry's pay grade and are affecting his golf scores, so he's leaving until things cool down a bit..

leaving the country now makes absolutely no sense, especially on a personal trip.

it’s almost like he wants to get outta dodge before something happens.

Civil War in Libya is about over. Obama’s guys lost.

I can just picture him and Moochelle doing the Samba. Ugghh!

[Twinkie]

Poor dear. He needed a vacation - on our dime no doubt; but, never fear, he’s on top of it ‘cause he’s SMART and can do more than one thing at a time. /s

But White House press secretary Jay Carney said Mr Obama felt the visit was important to help boost U.S. jobs.

*laughter, applause, curtain*

Imagine in 2012 the ads being run of the beaches of Japan and Obama laying on the beach in Rio...

Oh no wait, Obamamedia won’t publish his ‘glistening pectorals’ while in Rio...

Remake starring a Barrack Bologna.

I really don’t mind Obama going to Rio or traveling anywhere else in the world, its him coming back that I don’t like!!

So, is he going to stay down there? We don’t have an extradition treaty with Brazil do we?

[Bitsy]

Hey, he’s got everything under control - that’s why he has his blackberry for goodness sake /s

lol

Obama never ever said more than Present in his very short time as Senator.....who thought this hyphenated American would ever be able to lead? The money spent to fly him and his entourage to SA will be staggering - yet the Democrats are preparing to CUT some or our combat troops etc.

I can't help but believe that those who voted for this anti-American wimp want to see America fall into a Third World status for whatever reason. Obama is becoming the Blackest Mark on America in history!

Maybe he is just planning ahead. Argentina was one of the favored destinations for Germany’s National Socialist Democrats after they lost WWII.

Drop them off and leave them there. Argentina is welcome to do anything they like with der Fuehrer but they can’t send him back here.

Great pic!! I printed out to be put on the wall of shame. I work at a university so it should raise a few eyebrows!!

“The Obamas will be heading to the beach “

Japanese are freezing but the important thing is that the first family is safe and warm.

Memo to Barack Obama: Just continue to play golf, fill out your NCAA brackets, and let the REAL leaders of the world respond. You would just get in their way.
