Obama May Cut Short Latin America Trip
LA Times via WPMT Fox43 ^ | Tuesday, March 22, 2011 | Peter Nicholas and Michael A. Memoli

Reporting from San Salvador and Washington— President Obama may hasten his return to Washington as the U.S.-led military strike against Libya increasingly distracts from his Latin America trip.

As Air Force One touched down in El Salvador on Tuesday afternoon, the White House announced changes to the president's itinerary. A visit planned for Wednesday to the Metropolitan Cathedral in San Salvador, where slain Archbishop Oscar Romero is buried, was shifted to Tuesday. Obama was also scheduled Wednesday to tour Mayan ruins one hour outside the capital city, but it is now unclear whether he would do so.

Obama is set to hold a bilateral meeting with President Mauricio Funes of El Salvador on Tuesday, followed by a joint news conference. Funes hosts the president and first lady for an official dinner Tuesday night. Obama was scheduled to return to Washington on Wednesday evening.

It was just announced that this self-serving incompetent, nobama (the great leader) will return two hours before scheduled so as to take even better charge of things. SUCH SELF-SACRIFICE!!!! What a anti-leader.

Probably trying to escape his mother-in-law. Perfect excuse. Oops. Gotta run. Wars going on, you know.

Since no one had mentioned the mother-in-law in so long, I changed my tagline a few days ago. Now, she appears to be making a ‘comeback’.

She’s actually been in the background for other trips, like Me!cheele’s controversial Spain vacation. I wish a WH reporter would ask Barry, off the cuff, “So how’s the mother-in-law?”

that is you and I then who are pissed off with the freeloading mother in law and now she brings a friend on these trips on airforce one.

It really sickens me that we know she is sitting there in the white house having people run around after her , bring her neighborhood in getting freebies paid by us while I can’t even afford to eat out or go on any vacation.

I mean she was never living with them before he got cheated in but now there they sit taking what ever they want and imagine what they will take when it is their time to leave.

Many things will disappear I bet.

The only way he’d come back early is if the band or the caterer for his next White House party canceled.

She brought only one pair of shoes? ...

You must have missed these catchy metallic gold numbers worn with the grey brocade evening suit, in the middle of the day. She really knows how to dress to the nines, doesn't she?

Why is she wearing a giant rubber band around her expanding waist? Wait, I just answered my own question.

This getting back early is a done deal with the media.
headlines and talking points are.

what do you want him to do he came back early
or
president cuts trip short to sort this crisis out.

Vacation
mother in law , bring a friend for a free vacation
wages illegal war
cuts oil deal which makes Soros and Petrobas billions which in turn gives more millions for the election next year.
Does a war with no clue what we’re doing there or even a war which has nothing to do with us in any way shape or form.

Sors is happy he makes billions
Petrobas is happy
Mother in law, MO and mother in law friends happy as they get another free vacation.
wine and dined
more money for election
media meets with operatives from organizing for America to get talking points.

This is purely a slap in the face and can you imagine Soros, MO and mother in law plus mother in law friend laughing at us all over this.

Think about this, start a war which we look at and then we don’;t see the deal with Petrobas and Soros over oil.

Not one person with a mic or paper has mentioned this deal

It seems to me that the she is absolutely convinced that with her enormous popularity and all that she will start a world-wide fashion trend with boob belts.

every woman in the world will want to look just like MO.
Hey, Jennifer Aniston pulled it off with her hair doo and she is nowhere near as awesome as MO.

I’m sure many things are already disappearing. I’m sure the White House custodian has to buy new sets of drink glasses, ashtrays, coasters, and silverware on a weekly basis. You know that place winds up $5000 lighter in merchandise whenever somebody from Hollywood comes through.

Just like the Klintons on the USS George Washington in 1994, it always amazes me how these millionaires come through and clean out everything like they’re going camping for the next month at their next destination. I’m not sure why they’d want to come home with 20 bars of soap, 15 mini-bottles of shampoo, and a dozen scratchy towels, I guess you’d have to ask them.

Yep. Barbara Bush and Nancy Reagan caught hell for months for being seen with friends that paid their own airfare, hotel, and meals. The Nancy Reagan borrowed-dress debacle was threatening to bring down all that is civilized and decent in the world, while Hillary, Chelsea, and Michelle are out spending a king’s ransom on designer clothes and Hussein is throwing million dollar parties with Billy Joel and Fleetwood Mac providing the music on taxpayer money.

I don’t think it’s her terrible posture, her linebacker arms or her ass the size of Texas that is the main problem.
It is that 24/7 skowl on her puss that really freaks me out.

What a MISERABLE lookin woman.
ugh

I heard today on FOX or MSNBC that there were increased threats made on the Prez’s life while he was in South America. That’s why they cancelled his open air speech in Brazil and the trip to the Mayan ruins, and probably why they cut the trip short.

Guess they have some real good sharpshooters down that way.

don’t remember Nancy but I do know is that there are dinner parties , concerts etc in the white house nearly every night and then free vacation for the mother in law friends

Remember the fly over of NY city?
What is the betting that MO and her friends were on that being served great food by a waiter?The flight manifesto was never released and the GOP yet again became cowardly and did not go after this .

The obama’;s are treating their positions like they’re king and Queen, in the end who the hell do the think they are anyway.

The amount of vacations this woman has had and took others on airforce one with secret service being there is sick and disgusting.
How many times do they bring in their pals from the neighborhood for their nearly every night dinner parties which are paid for by us?

I am so pissed off with this family and then we hear obama is coming back early, yes a few hours early but the headline and talking point will be obama cuts trip to focus on Libya, what utter crap

The media have been disgusting and while the cover for their messiah the obama’;s will keep having parties, vacations, taking friends and kicking the ass out of all this while laughing at us all including the left and media which are one of the same.
