President Obama shook hands with Venezuela's Hugo Chavez on Friday at the opening of the Summit of the Americas being held this weekend in Trinidad and Tobago.
It wasn't immediately clear Friday evening what words were exchanged between the two leaders, but photos released by the Venezuelan government show Obama clasping Chavez's hand and smiling broadly.

Upset our allies? LOL that is an understatement...
he is flat out dissing Israel... “Mr Netanyahu had hoped to capitalize on his attendance at the annual American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) conference in Washington to visit the White House.”

But Obama is skipping town on those days... has not invited the New Israeli PM to the WH and did not meet with him at all since becoming President however, Obama has had time to shmooze with Castro, bow to dictators, suck up to Chavez, write love notes to Amadmanjihadi, ignore missle launches out of PRNK
Obama is such a freaking JOKE!
How many of us tried to tell others that OBAMA is no different from CHAVEZ! If he keeps it up he may make Chavez look like a conservative!
Just take a look at the friends he kept before he was elected!
The Three Amigos.
Excerpts:
“Our welling has been set back by a historic economic crisis.”
“Our safety is endangered by a broad range of threats.”
“...we have at times been disengaged, and at times we sought to dictate our terms. But I pledge to you that we seek an equal partnership.”
“There is no senior partner and junior partner in our relations; there is simply engagement based on mutual respect and common interests and shared values.”
“We joined with our G20 partners to set aside over a trillion dollars for countries going through difficult times, recognizing that we have to provide assistance to those countries that are most vulnerable.”
“We're also committed to combating inequality and creating prosperity from the bottom up.”
“I've asked Congress for $448 million in immediate assistance for those who have been hit hardest by the crisis beyond our borders.”
“The dangers of climate change are part of a broad range of threats to our citizens...”
“...the United States is a friend of every nation...”
“The United States seeks a new beginning with Cuba.”
“The United States will be willing to acknowledge past errors where those errors have been made.”
“the American people have to get some positive reinforcement if they are to be engaged in the efforts to lift other countries out of the poverty that they're experiencing.” (my comment - WTF!!!!!!!!!!!)
“...I pledge to you that the United States will be there as a friend...”

We have to look at the USA as a foreign country and analyze it objectively and from a distance, almost as we would analyze developments in a foreign country as intelligence analysts, for example, a coup d etat developing in the Ivory Coast, or socialist victory at elections in Nicaragua and El Salvador and what the new policies will mean.
I have the luxury of doing that I guess, being so distant and looking at USA from afar. Lining this analysis up with history and past lessons, one can only say there is no logical reason to imply, assert or insist that, just because it is the United States, "it cannot happen there."
In the span of less than 100 days, we are losing our government, we are losing our freedom, we are losing our allies, and we are the laughing stock of our most vicious and dangerous global enemies...er, no long "enemies" under Obama and this new crowd. BUT WE ALSO SAW THE LARGEST ANTI-PRESIDENT RALLY IN THE HISTORY OF THE UNITED STATES TO OCCUR SO SOON IN A NEW PRESIDENTIAL ADMINISTRATION, IN HUNDREDS OF CITIES AND TOWNS.
Things are really happening.
Excellent post!
2010 could be the last chance.
Except for OUR Commie, Socialist media.
They buried the bow, they’ll bury this too.
Oh, I don’t disagree at all.
If you have ever read the book in my tagline, you know.
Hayek’s premise is that there was nothing peculiar to the German people that brought National Socialism to the government. Many people somehow feel superior saying to each other “That would never happen to us, we are different..”
But we aren’t. Like playing with fire and always eventually getting burned, playing with socialism will always bring tyranny. We are no longer dallying with it. Obama and his administration are the greased slide.
Wow...BFF
Is anyone really surprised??? What I am wondering is if bo is stupid, naive or outright trying to take down this country.
Absolutely incredible.
Not that I am surprised, but...
Oh.
My.
God.
This OBAMA and his speech today to Cuba, Nicaragua, Venezuela and all other enemies of the United States around the world.
Dont worry, the Japanese are hep. They are even running a story tonight in major Yomiuri news, the upshot is "Obama is a weakling President closely resembling and as bad as Jimmy Carter"

quite agreed, friend
Don’t we all? Remember the pride we had in America when he was in the WH?
Michael Reagan spoke at the Sacramento Tea Party on Wednesday. People love him nearly as much as his father and every time he spoke of his father, the crowd erupted with applause and cheers.
“At the same time he is dissing Israel... You can’t make this stuff up...
Our nation is going to come against Israel to our own detriment.”
Within months, possibly weeks. As soon as the Israelis strike the nuke facilities in Iran, things will get very ugly, very quickly, and then we will see how horrific and radical Hussein is. He is going to abandon Israel and we are all going to suffer for it.
indeed they will this is why the GOP should state all of this on live camera and on the Sunday talk shows
course I will not hold my breath seeing as McCain daughter and staff are pushing to accept homosexuals
My.
God.
My thoughts exactly. Sorry, I was typing fast and “welling” was actually “well-being”. Here is a corrected version of Obama’s supplication to Hugo Chavez and the rest of the attendees...

We're here alright. To top it off, I just saw a recruiting commercial for a year commitment to serving the one. At the end, the black youth said "we are fierce". I'm not kidding -- it was on during Greta.
