This person is NOT serious about being the President of the United States...so why should he be re-elected.
This arrogant child is fire-branded as a community organizer, and that's all he'll ever be.

... the King Charles II medal, which is awarded in “exceptional circumstances” to heads of state who have “made an outstanding contribution to furthering scientific research in their country”. Apparently that award has the credibility of the Nobel Prize nowadays. What in the heck has Obama done to "further scientific research" at any time. Anyone wanting to give him that prize deserves to be stiffed.

Royal Society issues new climate change guide that admits there are 'uncertainties' about the science ... When you don't follow in lock step you deserve "The Snub". By Jove, I believe you've cracked it, old man.
Jolly good.

That’s what I thought. Any group of scientists that would give Barry a medal isn’t worth much.

The US President was offered the chance to receive the King Charles II medal, which is awarded in “exceptional circumstances” to heads of state who have “made an outstanding contribution to furthering scientific research in their country”.
The last person to receive the medal was Angela Merkel, the German Chancellor, in 2010. Is this the reverse side of the medal in question?
About as prestigious as the Nobel Peace Price; socialist politics affects everything...and not for the better.

He is just mad because Her Majesty berated him in public and humiliated him. You can see his tight-lipped anger from that point. Just look at his lips and jawline.

awarded in “exceptional circumstances” to heads of state who have “made an outstanding contribution to furthering scientific research in their country”. What's he done? Is this about his "investment" in a "green economy?"
