The world is far more dangerous, unstable place under the weakness of Obama. The left, seeking to "befriend" every evil, dubious nation as though they were a fake friend in "Face Book" has now realized that the world is not that naive and does not work that way.

Let us hope that Obama does not bring us to the brink of WWIII before he leaves office.
WOW! what a "drama "Queen" post! Obama is far from "weak" unless having "Bin Laden" flushed to a "watery" grave is considered "Weak" by you!

President Obama apparently doesn't like "perpetual" "WARS" but I assume being part of the Military Industrial complex that is the norm for you?

They've "unfriended" us for awhile now. Their people have anyway. An overwhelming number of the 9/11 attackers were Saudis.

Bolded for emphasis. Which is why we are hated.
BTW our military is in more places now than ever before. We aren't weak, we're just too arrogant to learn from our own mistakes.
Trade with all nations, entangling alliances with none.

The Saudis are some of the most duplicitous people on Earth.

They're not a friend.

This topic is foolish.
I agree entirely.

It's time for the US to "unfriend" Saudi Arabia and their corrupt despotic king and regime.

Just like everybody on earth when it comes to politics,we're not expecting anyone not to be duplicitous.

Just like a bunch of other countries SA thinks that the U S is their military since we proudly hold the title of worlds policemen and stick our noses in every situation. Lets see, SA wants action in Syria and Iran, Israel wants us to take out Iran, the EU and Ukraine want us to do something about the Russians. Japan wants the U S to have their backs in a squabble over islands with China. What we have is a bunch of countries that know we work for free and the cost passed on to tax payers or adds to our deficit.

I noticed that the Saudi's had unfriended the U.S on Facebook. Always sad when that happens.

Good. We have our own oil and we can get more from Canada. Plus, we are making more natural gas now. There is no reason to be "friends" with that backward nation so they can send us more terrorist plane hijackers.
