When Obama makes these stupid remarks, He's not talking to Americans....he's talking to his foundation donors. M/M Obama have BIG plans to get-rich-quick ala the Clintons.

It was abundantly clear....in his WH speech to Americans..... Obama was priming his get-rich-quick pump......he was talking to all of his potential Mideast-Islamic pals ready w/ their checkbooks.

M/M Obama have BIG plans to get-rich quick ala the Clintons: millions and million in foundations donations, multi-million honoraria, consultancies, lucrative insider business deals.

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

ACTION NOW Contact your Representative and Senators
Capitol Switchboard 1-866-220-0044

NOW THIS WILL SERVE NOTICE: Americans demand to see all wire-transfers in and out of the WH---to and from the offices of Valerie Jarrett, Susan Rice, Congressional Democrats, UN Amb Samantha Power, SoS John Kerry, the Clinton Foundation, CAIR...and other accessories tangentially or directly involved in this scheme.

Mideast/Islamic countries and/or Islamic individuals and other suspects, may now or may have been contributing (1) to Obama's two tax-free foundations (two that we know of), (2) to his Chicago-based library fund, and, (3) to other networks he might be using.

IF OBAMA RECEIVED MONIES FROM TERRORIST COUNTRIES, AMERICANS DEMAND OBAMA'S FOUNDATIONS, THE LIBRARY FUND, AND HIS NETWORKS BE CLOSED DOWN.

When ISIS splintered from Al Nusra last summer under the auspices of Turkey, the US did not act and perpetuated its long-standing policy of providing Turkey cover for its murderous policies.

How Turkey Went Bad / | 10/3/2014 | Daniel Pipes / FR Posted by markomalley

Only twelve years ago, the Republic of Turkey was correctly seen as a stalwart NATO ally, the model of a pro-Western Muslim state, and a bridge between Europe and the Middle East. A strong military bond with the Pentagon undergirded broader economic and cultural ties with Americans. For those of us who work on the Middle East, time in Istanbul, Ankara, and other Turkish cities was a refreshing oasis from the turmoil of the region.

And then, starting with the still-astonishing election of 2002, the country dramatically changed course. Slowly at first and then with increasing velocity since mid-2011, the government began breaking its own laws, turned autocratic, and allied with the enemies of the United States. Even those most reluctant to recognize this shift have been forced to do so. If Barack Obama listed Turkey’s dominant political leader, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, as one of his five best foreign friends in 2012, he showed a quite different attitude by having a mere chargé d’affaires represent him at Erdogan’s presidential inauguration a few weeks ago – a public slap in the face.

What caused this shift? Why did Turkey go rotten?

-—SNIP-—

With its youthful population of 75 million, a central location, control of a key waterway, and eight mostly problematic neighbors, Turkey is a highly desirable ally.

In addition, it enjoys a position of prominence in the Middle East, among Turkic-speakers from Bosnia to Xinjiang, and among Muslims worldwide. The U.S.-Turkish alliance that began with the Korean War has been highly advantageous to Washington, which is understandably loath to lose it.

That said, one side alone cannot sustain an alliance. Ankara’s record of friendly relations with Tehran, support for Hamas and the Islamic State, undermining the authority of Baghdad, virulence toward Israel, and threats against Cyprus make its membership in NATO questionable at best and duplicitous at worst.

Washington must signal that the bully tactics winning votes within Turkey fail in the rest of the world. The Wall Street Journal has helpfully proposed moving a U.S. military base in Turkey to Iraqi Kurdistan. Erdogan’s increasingly dictatorial rule must be repudiated as should Ankara’s continued occupation of Cyprus, its support for terrorists, and its anti-semitic effusions.

Beyond these steps, the time has come for the U.S. government to make clear that unless major changes occur quickly, it will push for Turkey’s suspension and eventual expulsion from NATO.

If Erdogan insists on acting the rogue, then that’s how its former ally should treat him.
