Sorry Mr. Obama, but China asked for it first. Otherwise we would have been happy to return it.

If they don’t return it within the next election cycle they can be sure to receive an almost seriously harsh letter.

Aw, Iran isn’t going to produce an atomic bomb. That was all Bush’s fault. Barry has asked them real nice not to do that. “Diplomacy” and pixie dust will get them to stop, doncha know.

Iran might do it to boost King Obama’s election try. They know that keeping our communists black Muslim in power will eventually convert American law to Islam.

It might take a strongly worded letter.

Any ARMED drone has one.
In this case, it was an intended transfer.
What a total Peas of Sh!t fraud president.
