Lech Walesa snubs Obama, fellow Nobel winner
AFP/Breitbart ^ | 5/27/11

Posted on 05/27/2011 5:40:58 AM PDT by markomalley

Lech Walesa, Poland's Solidarity-era legend, ex-president and 1983 Nobel Peace Prize winner said Friday he would not accept an invitation to meet with fellow Nobel winner US President Barack Obama.

"It's difficult to tell journalists what you'd like to say to the president of a superpower. This time I won't tell him, I won't meet him, it doesn't suit me," Walesa told Poland's public broadcaster TVP.

Obama is due to arrive in Poland later Friday after the G8 summit in France.

Walesa was originally scheduled to meet Obama Saturday along with other key figures in Poland's post-1989 transition from communism to democracy.

Lech Walesa has met with enough and been sickened by enough communists for one lifetime.

Why would Hussein want to bother him? Walesa has plenty of other American communists, I’m sure.

God bless ya, LW.

Wszystko, co robię, robię dla Polski!

Is that "everything I do, I do for Poland"?

Lech recognizes a Kenyan marxist when he smells BO. Keep in mind, bo was an organizer of community illiterates, not indendent thinkers with more than a high school education.

I just pray that Present Stroker doesn’t try to claim Polish heritage!

I'm waiting for Obama to bust out the fake Polish accent.

Since citizenship (and the Constitution) don’t really matter anymore, I propose a Bibi/Lech co-Presidency.

They love our nation more than any Rat and many RINOs do.

Walesa knows a commie when he sees one. The Marxist Onada represents the very people Solidarity and Walesa kicked out of power in Poland. Why on earth would he want meet the man attempting to fly the red hammer and sicle flag over the American Capitol?

Oh, he did. In a joint press conference with the Polish pres. he said one could not visit Poland and [not become a little bit Polish].

So, our pres. wunderkind’s roots include Kenya, Ireland and Poland. He is not and never was American. The Marxist make believe world never ceases to amaze me with the length and breadth of its preposterousness.

He is a hero showing hero character. Too bad BO won’t get profit from this truth.

A smart GOPer would be on the next flight for a meeting with Lech or inviting him here for high level talks right in Chicago. That would pay off handsomely.

As fun as that might sound, all it would do is lower one to Frobama's level of pettiness.

Dobrze, pana Lech. Maybe if he hadn’t skewered Poland’s entry into NATO.

LMAO

I’ve been able to tell the difference for quite some time.

Walesa stared down the Soviet Bear.

Present Stroker couldn’t stare down a Chihuahua.

Maybe our Republican leadership should follow Lech’s example and grow some.

Lech Walesa sounds like a FReeper. Bet he’d fit right in around here.

Obama has achieved his goal of "transparency." Walesa can see right through him like a pane of glass. Walesa looks at Obama and he sees Jaruzelski. And he says "Thanks but no thanks, I've seen this movie before and it sucks."
