Obama heads for taping of 'The View,' as UN summit begins

President Obama will be among the world leaders arriving in New York on Monday for the U.N. General Assembly, but unlike other presidents or prime ministers Obama plans to head straight for a daytime TV interview.

The president’s schedule has him and first lady Michelle Obama sitting down for a taping of ABC’s “The View" shortly after arriving in New York.

Though Obama will deliver a major speech Tuesday before the annual assembly, he has largely left the one-on-one meetings to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, sparking criticism that he appears more concerned about his re-election effort than talking directly to other world leaders about such issues as Iran’s quest for nuclear capability and the violent, deadly protests in the Middle East and North Africa.

“People around the world listen to the president because he is commander in chief,” Sen. John Barrasso, R-Wyo., told Fox News on Monday morning.

Clinton will be handling meetings Monday with some of the heavy-hitters who are critical in managing the latest wave of unrest and violence. Clinton is set to meet with Libyan President Mohamed Magariaf, Pakistani President Asif Ali Zardari and Afghan President Hamid Karzai.

White House Press Secretary Jay Carney defended the president, saying he's had "extensive consultations" with those and other leaders in recent weeks. "Those consultations will continue," Carney said, adding that Obama will surely...

The View needs a rename to The Spew.

The Celebrity-in-Chief and the Me-First Lady continue the celebration tour after Muslim Terrorists kill Americans ... they are not letting running over a few (dead American) bumps in the road slow down the 4th year of partying in the WH.

I saw that leftist hack/Family Guy Robert Gibbs on FOX this morning saying it was okay for Barry Obama to on the Morning Yack/The Vie because “we have phones now.” He was dead serious and said it with a straight face.

Obozo knows he needs to spend more time bottom feeding than working on world affairs. His target audience has him hamstrung. He can’t get enough votes without bottom feeding.

Facts don’t matter.

It doesn’t matter that Obama might destroy America.

Obama will take care of me and makes me comfortable as I do as I please.

Liberals only have one perspective of Romney;
He’s Rich,
He’s going to take away our abortions,
He’s Mormon, (which means he has standards that he might attempt to hold me to).

—— sparking criticism that he appears more concerned about his re-election effort than talking directly to other world leaders -——

That’s just the outward appearance. Deep inside, this great man, who won’t give a penny to his slum-dwelling half brother, and who was the sole vote in opposition to an anti-infanticide bill, is all heart.

He is a coward. He knows he can’t run with the big dogs so he stays on the porch and spews with the View gals. I am so ashamed if this coward.

With liberals all they care about is free abortions and taking away wealth from people who have succeeded. I follow this girl on facebook(Who I did not know at first was a liberal) she just posted a facebook comment about the 60 Minutes interview last night, not one mention about Obama’s “Bump in the road” comment, nope, all she talked about is how Romney wants to take away her right to have an abortion(I wanted to tell her SO badly if she loves abortion so much she should have been aborted) and that the role of the Govt is to control everything we do(So basically she’s admitting that she’s an idiot and needs mommy Govt to do everything for her) this is how liberal whackos think

“we have phones now.”

then why didn’t he phone in his interview with the View and meet face to face with the leader of Israel?
Priorities Sir, priorities.

This is a sign of desperation for The Pathological Liar-In Chief that he must sacrifice the UN meeting to appeal to his base, i.e. woman.

This image is disturbing and it should have been used by the media. It is as disturbing as the image of the planes flying through the Twin Towers which the Media will not use.

Obama has got to go-Please vote Romney and Ryan I beg all to do so

Sarah, I hate to give advice, but using ‘think’ and ‘liberal’ in the same sentence is rather contradictory.

“...he has largely left the one-on-one meetings to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.

IMO, having a woman as Secretary Of State, no matter how qualified, to these Arab countries is a joke. Those people do not respect woman for their knowledge and look down on them.
