That Smart Diplomacy™ practiced by President Obama and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is paying off again. For our enemies.
NBC’s Tom Brokaw reports that the Saudi Arabian King Abdullah, our staunchest Arab ally, is not happy with the manchild President of the United States.
“I was told on the way in here that the Saudis are so unhappy with the Obama administration for the way it pushed out President Mubarak of Egypt that it sent high level emissaries to China and Russia to tell those two countries that Saudi Arabia now is prepared to do more business with them.”
More evidence that President Obama’s vaunted Cairo speech was meaningless twaddle peddled by the press and manipulated by the media.
Only the suckers bought the snake oil.

Looks like it's time to go back and kiss his ring again (and his ass).
Funny thing about the king he is, he likes getting his ass kissed, but he just hates getting screwed. (Either that or he just hates wusses.)
The Saudis know a loser when they see one, so they're hedging their bets by reaching out to Russia and China. The Saudi leaders may be nasty, undemocratic people but they ain't dumb.
Obama has a diplomatic reverse Midas Touch, everything he touches turns to s**t. Eventually Obama's and Hillary's "diplomacy" will leave this country a laughing stock and totally isolated.
Guess the decision in 2012 will be whether BO or the Repubs do the best job of their usual snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.
Mainly we just cannot let the old media nominate our candidate, and they're already starting with Daniels.
No, we won't be totally isolated, we will still have Guam! We'll be just fine........
Not if it tips over.
Oooh beat me to it. (Except you gotta use "capsize." The whole point was to show he knew what a big word like that meant.)
Just another fine example of the great diplomacy in the middle east. Both clinton and barry graduated with honors from the Jimmy Carter school of Middle East Diplomacy.
Fools to the left, idiots to the right. Yes I took some liberties with the lyrics.
Maybe he should have held the Saudi's Kings hand for a little while.
That sounds like a bad idea to me.
The problem with inviting the Big Friendly Bear into your house for "protection" is getting rid of it later, you know. Not to even mention the scat...
As if we weren't f***ed already.......
Hey! Wait a minute. Didn't Bama Boy Kowtow to the Saudi King?
Wasn't that all that was needed?
Don't they love us for the apology tour?
I just don't know what to say.
They only respond to strength! Kowtowing, bowing and apologies does not give the appearance of strength! OMG, every day makes me more afraid...
Great . . . piss off SA so that they start push OPEC to start trading in Rubles or Euros. Is Obama trying to destroy this country?
YES!
DRILL BABY, DRILL!
That's a stupid question...OF COURSE I AM!!!
I HATE THIS F***ING PLACE! You're all a bunch of racist, colonialist, capitalist, individuals who stand in the way of my Marxist/Collectivist Utopia.
