VIENTIANE, Laos (AP) — President Barack Obama called off a planned meeting Tuesday with new Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte, seeking distance from a U.S. ally's leader during a diplomatic tour that's put Obama in close quarters with a cast of contentious world figures.

It's unusual for one president to tell another what to say or not say, and much rarer to call the other a "son of a bitch." Duterte managed to do both just before flying to Laos for a regional summit, warning Obama not to challenge him over extrajudicial killings in the Philippines.

How thin-skinned can he be? Just because Duterte called him “the son of a whore”?

...and the son-of-a-Whore.

Hahahaha - so funny. Stand up to the big phony and he runs away like a girl.

Can’t tough it out, Big Boy?

Well, Duterte told the truth.

Doesn't Duarte know he is Putin's bitch?

And, el Presidente, it's mudshark whore...

I prefer SOAW, out of respect to the Philippines.

He didn’t get mad at the terrorists for calling him the ‘house n***ger of the White House.”

Does anyone still love us?

Well, you can find photos of Obama’s mother whoring it up on the internet.

Can you imagine the collective shocked gasps, as well as paper-fan waving and fainting from Obama's media sycophants and others in liberal faculty lounges everywhere after hearing what Duterte said?

"Well I'll be...the nerve...such divisive and uncouth rhetoric...my word...how will this affect our Obama?"

[MichaelCorleone]

Nobody respects a leader who is bent on turning his first world country into a third world cesspool.

“Duterte, you bad man—you bruised my petals.” Barack Obama

Note he only cares when it affects him personally. He is OK with leaders of countries that kidnap and humiliate and murder our people.
