Once Hussein has imposed State Socialism on the United States, no nation on Earth will envy us anymore.

They’re already laughing at us; soon they’ll pity us.

If the U.S. can be outmaneuvered by Russia when it comes to Syria

In all fairness, Hussein would do a better job supporting Soviet interests than he does supporting US interests. As a committed Marxist, he wants the US to lose. He could support the interests of a Marxist country.

Plus, Zero was a no show at the recent Asian summit, claiming he had to stay in Washington to negotiate over the government shutdown that he publicly said he would not negotiate over. Serious snub. Asians don’t forget that stuff.

Which face is he talkig about? Hussein has at least two. We’re now getting a glimpse of what I believe to be the real one-the petty, vindictive, America-hating, vengeful, spiteful, small little man face. The face of evil.

Why not.

The US Constitution says quite explicitly that Americans can be taxed to bail out every failed nation on Earth.

Er... wait a minute.

It doesn’t, does it?

Rather, as King Nebuchadnezzar had to learn.... that the GOD of Israel is on his throne and is still in control... a lesson in humility.

The act of saving face is of a Asian social cultural heritage... he is just showing his colors that he is not one of us.

As long as the Democrats are handing out freebies to every Mexican here illegally in exchange for votes, they’ll keep right on coming and no one will even go through the motions of stopping them.

Basically what the Far East is noting is that obama will follow the person who most recently pulled on his leash.

And they would be correct.

How is the concept of “losing face” different from the ghetto term “being dissed?”

You have a good point- what reason did he give for staying home? Did he tell them I am staying home to do nothing??

If Obama had any ACTUAL balls he would have gone- and said “I told everyone I am not negotiation- bye”

Then if they finally passed something HE COULD SIGN IT WITH AUTOPEN - AGAIN
