WHEN President Barack Obama declared himself the first Pacific president, some thought he was merely waxing lyrical about his birth in Hawaii and school days in Indonesia.
A year into office it is clear that this is a president focused not so much on old alliances across the Atlantic as on the emerging Pacific powers. Next week he will return to Indonesia, where he spent four years as a child...
A journey to his old primary school in Jakarta will no doubt come as a welcome break...
When the Washington Post columnist Jackson Diehl asked White House officials to name a foreign leader with whom Obama had forged a personal relationship, there was a lot of hemming and hawing, he said. To his astonishment, no one mentioned Gordon Brown.
The British feel particularly miffed. Within days of becoming president, Obama removed the bust of Winston Churchill from the Oval Office. This, followed by Obamas odd choice of gift to Brown a box of DVDs including Psycho and Toy Story prompted speculation of something deeper. In his memoir, Obama writes of how his grandfather was beaten by British troops in colonial Kenya.
A senior official from No 10, who was in Washington in December for Obamas big speech on Afghanistan, was horrified that the president did not once mention Britain in the 45-minute address despite the presence there of 10,000 British troops.
British diplomats recently complained to the State Department over the handling of the Falklands dispute with Argentina.

“Does Barack Obama give a damn about us?”
No.

Maybe he can catch some remedial classes, whilst there...
Ditto
No..he does not. Simple.
Nope.
UH, no. He farts in our general direction.
He only cares about himself.
Even the slow among us are starting to figure out that Obamao hates America, and he will destroy all of us to get even for everyone else who hates America. It wasn’t exactly hidden before he became the worst president in our history.
About as much as I give a damn about him.
Actually he hates your guts as he does capitalists and non-racialist Americans .
And a chance to make sure they don't have any old incriminating documents, like birth certificates, laying around in some old file cabinet.
his inner moose-limb (muslim) will never allow him to give a tinker’s cuss about anything but sharia-! If we don’t get a huge cleansing of the filth in DC this November, The rifles will be coming out-!! Make no mistake-!
No, and I don’t give a damn about him. May his presidency be cursed and may he rot in hell.
And .. HE NEVER DID!
We are just scum to be destroyed; humiliated; taught a lesson .. until we are accustomed to being the slaves of the Obama administration.
BOY .. ARE THEY IN FOR A SURPRISE!

BOY .. ARE THEY IN FOR A SURPRISE!
That’s right! They are going to wish that they have never been born or heard the name Karl Marx.
No, he and the Democrats are doing what they feel we all need because they think we are too stupid to know what is good for us.
They consider themselves god IMO.
