To some people, pointing out the flaws of THE CHOSEN ONE is hatred. Or racism.

I'm absolutely amazed that so many folks hate Obama so much.
Bush made me sick, but this makes me even sicker. (Rant over).

I don't see it as hate, more as confirmation of the lack of respect I have had for him since I first knew of him, when he was merely another buffoon of a Chicago Politician who supposedly had no presidential aspirations.

Is this a Mountain or a Mole hill? I cant tell

If you add up all the mole hills , you have a mountain .

I don't like Obama. I didn't like Bush either. I mean come on..."oh, let's give a back-rub to the German chick". We all make silly mistakes.

We are involved in two wars and the worst recession since the 30s. Who cares?

Obama makes the United States worst president, Jimmy Carter, seem adequate.

Apparently, most do.

Just this board.

So many thoughts, so little time. I just can't do it.

I'll have to go with boob, though, since snake oil salesman wasn't a choice.

Don't politicians have advisors that tell them the protocols when making overseas visits

Obama has those. And they are failing him like his other advisors. Being as Obama doesn't know anything himself, a disaster is now in the making.

Did he throw up on the Man? No. Did he give an unwelcome backrub? No

Also if the King/Queen/Pope/Emperor offers you their hand you arent supposed to bow, you are supposed to shake hands back. So yeah Obama was wrong, there, no big deal
But
Someone should have told this guy




also its never okay for heads of state to give backrubs to other heads of state



Its also rude to wipe your glasses on other peoples clothes

Look, if you want to find a reason to dislike Obama, then you WILL find a reason.
Heck, I didnt vote for him, but I gotta admit this stuff makes us all look childish

One of my friends has written a long note on facebook, showing that the State Department official in charge of protocol is a long-time staff member and ally of both Bill Clinton and SecState Hillary Clinton. He theorizes that these international gaffes might not be entirely accidental.

I like the photos of Bush walking hand in hand with Saudis. When the two walked side by side in Crawford I don't remember any discussion of Bush's sexual orientation.

When Bush did his own version of an African dance in Liberia I don't think anyone believed he thought he was trying out as a Solid Gold dancer.

He took part in a sword dance in Saudi Arabia. I imagine he saw himself as being a respectful guest.
