CHICAGO (Reuters) - President-elect Barack Obama on Wednesday named a bipartisan duo of Washington veterans to meet foreign delegations at this weekend's global financial summit, opening communication between the next U.S. administration and its global counterparts.
Former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright, a Democrat, and former Republican Rep. Jim Leach will be available for unofficial meetings on Obama's behalf at the Washington summit, which Obama himself will not attend, a statement from his office said.

Sounds like Obama just doesn’t like to actually work and he will just send people in and report back to him.
That is because he is just a puppet, but who is pulling the strings ???
Who is “pulling the strings” you ask. Rush has been wondering this aloud for months. Is it the Chicago Machine? Is it George Soros? It remains to be seen.
Yeah, Leach makes it REAL bipartisan.
Oh, GREAT! The "cleaning lady" is our hope for the future?
ROFLMAO !
"Feb. 2000:
"When a bunch of Albanians mistook Madeleine Albright for a hotel cleaning lady, the secretary of state spewed a most-undiplomatic, and untranslatable, stream of invective, a newspaper reports. A State Department spokesman wouldn't comment on the New York Daily News report that Albright was mistaken for a maid during last year's peace negotiations for Kosovo in Rambouillet, France. Albright at first wasn't recognized by the Albanian delegation when she walked into their room, it said. "'One member of the delegation, who didn't realize who she was, and probably thinking she was some cleaning lady because it was after midnight, simply said to her, 'Give us five minutes and please go away,' recalled Albanian diplomat Dugagjin Gorani in War on Europe, a British TV program. Instead, Albright exploded in rage, swearing at the group, according to the reports. 'Mrs. Albright started using explicit language which the translators never could translate into Albanian,' says Veton Surroi, another member of the delegation."
Bipartisan? I guess Leach might be considered a “Republican” if we really stretch the definitions.
Dennis Miller said on O’Reilly that he supports both President Bush and President-Elect Obama.
Do you think Dennis Miller is joking ?

I am not seriously promoting him only saying he could be used as a weapon to prove some points that running a foreigner is not the right thing to do.
Now, if we had a serious contender, we wouldn’t be able to get away with using a phony pres. seal like the O did. The media would be howling if a Rep. did that.
Then there's that pesky little Constitution thingy...

I am amazed that Obama will not attend. He is not even going to vote "present" on this one!
Of course, if he goes, he would be asked questions and then spill the beans about his plan, or show that he has no knowledge about how to fix the economy.
There is nothing wrong with supporting the president. However, supporting socialist policies proposed by a president is another thing (a little liberal nuance here). Many in the center or center/right of the main stream media will "support" Obama. If they know what is good for them, that is.
Oh yeah, that little thingy.......has not bothered the Obots so far. The playing field was pretty lopsided during this election, in my opinion.
Wondering if anyone can force him to prove he is a citizen of the country he plans to “rule” (his staffer’s word). That should tell you what we are dealing with here. When the staff thinks their boss is a ruler..........
