Obama was greeted w/ protests at his recent stop in Brazil. I guess they were protesting Moochelle's ugly outfit which looks like she's wearing a gilded potato sack. (/snix).

REFERENCE One of the world’s largest deep-sea oil discoveries was made by Brazilian oil company Petrobras in the so-called Tupi oil field in the Santos Basin off the coast of Rio back in Nov 2007.

The Brazilian protest centered on a complaint that Obama wanted Brazil’s newfound oil supply to be sold to the US. The US is interested in importing oil from Petrobras, and Obama has said as much. But the US has no powers over Petrobras, which is majority owned by the Brazilian government and intent on servicing local oil needs first.

=======================================

GAME CHANGER? But the US Dept of the Interior "coincidentally" just gave Approval to let Petrobas drill at its Gulf of Mexico Deep Water Facility.

Looks like anybody can drill in US waters as long as it isn't US companies.

I'm really glad that Moosechelle is leading the war against fatties in America. Her thighs and butt are bigger than most pro linebackers in the NFL.

Obama, Soros, Petrobras, Brazil & offshore drilling double standards
Michelle Malkin • August 19, 2009

*snip*

Is it a coincidence that Obama backer George Soros repositioned himself in Petrobras to get dividends just a few days before Obama committed $2 billion in loans and guarantees for Petrobras’ offshore operations? Hmmmmmmmmmm.
