How does he do it? How does Barack Obama continue to put himself on the wrong side of history time and time again?

Barack Obama snubbed America’s greatest ally Great Britain to side with Argentina’s left leaning President Cristina Fernandez on the Falkland Islands. Heritage released this excellent video on the situation.

Falkland Islanders voted overwhelmingly to keep British rule on Monday. Reuters reported:

Residents of the Falkland Islands voted almost unanimously to stay under British rule in a referendum aimed at winning global sympathy as Argentina intensifies its sovereignty claim.

The official count on Monday showed 99.8 percent of islanders voted in favor of remaining a British Overseas Territory in the two-day poll, which was rejected by Argentina as a meaningless publicity stunt. There only three “no” votes out of about 1,500 cast.

Obama is a bumbling buffoon who exceeds at only one thing - taking apart the greatest governmental system known to man brick by brick.

Just another example of racial hatred towards the black man in the White House. Only 3 of them could see the wisdom in supporting the position of The Won. The Ku Klux Klan is alive and well in Les Islas Malvinas!

“Residents of the Falkland Islands voted almost unanimously to stay under British rule in a referendum aimed at winning global sympathy as Argentina intensifies its sovereignty claim.”

It’s not part of Argentina. 99.9% of the people there are British, and That POS S. American pit was soundly defeated trying to take it by force.

It’s sad that they even needed to have a vote to make it crystal clear to anyone.

Muslim communists tend to BE on the “wrong” side of history.

Of course, THEY don’t seem to see it that way.

Thasssit,

In approximately ten years....there will be major oil production off the coast of the Falklands, and this is mostly what this entire argument is about. The Brit’s will control a major part of the oil production in 2030.

“How does Barack Obama continue to put himself on the wrong side of history time and time again?”

Oh, come on, that’s too easy.

It’s because he’s an *SSHOLE!

And he was elected by an ignorant mob of other *SSHOLES!
