PORT-OF-SPAIN, Trinidad – Defending his brand of world politics, President Barack Obama said Sunday that he "strengthens our hand" by reaching out to enemies of the United States and making sure that the nation is a leader, not a lecturer, of democracy.
Obama's foreign doctrine emerged across his four-day trip to Latin America, his first extended venture to a region of the world where resentment of U.S. power still lingers. He got a smile, handshakes and even a gift from incendiary leftist leader Hugo Chavez of Venezuela, and embraced overtures of new relations from isolated Cuban President Raul Castro.

Oh boy. Our enemies must be licking their chops. We’d all better run for cover, cause this ain’t gonna turn out pretty.
To: Extremely Extreme Extremist
The leaders of countries who have been our allies for years don’t think much of the Obamination. The dictators around the world embrace him and he embraces them.
Pretty d*mn telling.

I don’t know about enemy of the state but he is certainly an enemy of America, Americans and our Republic.

They have zero problem lecturing the people that pay the freight for this country, however.

He probably sat down with chavez and offered him thick turkish coffee and told him how great he was (old arab negotiating ploy.) Undoubtably, they were best friends for life shortly after.

Yeah, sure, whatever. Iran just told you they would cut off any outstretched hand and called you weak. The world’s countries are lining up to call you and us weak.

Yep, I think the pictures are great but the caption is off target. Barry O is the greatest friend “The State” ever had.
