What, has he gone to Prague only to snub the EU president?
And what do you bet they’ve already updated the Clintons’ plans: eight years for Barack, and then a turn at some point for Michelle?
Please tell me why the U.S. president should kowtow to a country that has recently been incredibly abusive about the U.S. AND is currently head of the European Union, which is totally NOT the way we want America to be? If this had been W or Reagan, you’d be praising him for snubbing these folks.
I’m so glad he and the missus were able to take this wonderful (and free!) vacation together.
I caught that, too...good find.
That statement can be applied to virtually every European country in recent memory. I'm surprised he didn't take Michelle for a personal visit to the Tower of London.
As for myself, the "Cabinet War Rooms" was my favorite stop during my last visit to London (five years ago).
They have soul food in the Czech Republic????
Are you being intentionally dense? Do you know who Vaclav Klaus, Czech head of state, is, and what he outspokenly believes?
Hint: It's not what Obama, or the Euro elite, believe, and that's why he's being snubbed -- intentionally.
"The EU's ruling elite view President Klaus, a distinguished academic economist, with a mixture of bewilderment, hatred and contempt. As his country's prime minister, he applied to join the EU in the days after the fall of Communism in the 1990s. But now Klaus is alone among European leaders in expressing openly Eurosceptic views, not least about the Lisbon Treaty, which the Czech parliament has yet to ratify.
Klaus was an outspoken dissident under the Communist regime, and he has come to regard the EU as dangerously anti-democratic. But he compounds this sin with highly sceptical views on global warming, on which he recently published a book, Blue Planet in Green Shackles. He likens the extreme environmentalism favoured by the EU to Communism, as a serious threat to democracy, freedom and prosperity.
No I would not. Reagan was never rude to any leader.
Obama and his silly wife are disgraceful posers.
“to a country that has recently been incredibly abusive about the U.S”
How ?
“AND is currently head of the European Union, which is totally NOT the way we want America to be?”
LOL ! So what in your opinion the President of the US should do visiting China or Saudi Arabia ?
And now.... for the important news of the day
you didn’t have any “RAKI”(turkish stuff) did ya’?start sipping that in early afternoon and then you’d be ready.......’nuff said
IOW a bootie call. (at least it’s with his wife)
Has he spent an entire day in the White House?
