JAKARTA, Indonesia – Authorities removed a statue of Barack Obama from a park in the Indonesian capital due to a public backlash and moved it Monday to a nearby elementary school that the U.S. president attended as a child.

Amazing, President Obama has a statue dedicated in his honor of him when he was a kid.

Even Indonesians get it. Amazing how many foreign nations are far wiser, and less ignorant, than half of the American electorate.....

Good. The kiddies can wipe their nose pickings on it.

Yeah, but did they drag it through town, and throw rotten fruit at it? Thats what I was hoping for..

The school where he was called Barry Soetero?

Is this the school where he registered as Muslim?

Is this where he studied the Koran?

Is this where he memorized the Muslim Arabic call to prayer?

Veeery Nice!

I wonder how many Indonesian kids think it’s a statue of a space alien?

Or maybe of Tiger Woods?
