Obama may have lost the rest of the world but Colombia is now our friend!

The Saudi's watched Braveheart and saw Robert the Bruce's father make deals with with opposing enemies to guarantee he would be on the winning side.

Why empower an enemy like the UAE which funds world terrorism as an insurance policy while playing the US like a puppet through several administrations.

Obama does not need to be the UAE's friend, just a savy business partner and he has accomplished neither. Can't expect too much from a community organizer turned idealog puppet replete with strings and a behind the scenes handler.

I believe Obama is more in line with the first group.
Because of course the Wahabi sect in Saudi Arabia is the most Kumbaya singing, friendly, loving, accepting sect in the entire world of Islam, eh?

Saudis, and the rest of the conservatives around world, would agree with you.

This is one of those classic examples of when we can see the right wing thinking at work. Even the Saudis are right, Putin is right, Gaddaffi is right... it is the US President that is the problem. I've one word for that ideology: disgusting.

Or Option C:

Obama is a problem, and so are the Saudis, Putin and Gaddaffi. Regime change at home would be some Change you can believe in.

In this case - you are correct.

Why is this disgusting? They only are seeing who he is.

They don't matter to me. Americans who believe them, think like them, want him to be someone they would like, is who I'm concerned about.

"Saudi Arabia upset with Obama"

That means he must be doing something right.

Wait until you can't buy oil, using US currency.

Do you really understand what happens, when that happens?
It is closer than you think.
This could be the icing on the cake.
