On one hand, the guy gave a big speech in Cairo that was supposed to make the Muslim world love us, but it doesn’t. On the other hand, he didn’t say a word in Latin America and they do love us.
The conclusion seems obvious: Shut the hell up, President Obama.
The Associated Press has details of Latin America’s supposed Obama obsession:
The White House is touting a changing attitude toward the United States in Latin America as it seeks to minimize anti-American sentiments in advance of President Barack Obama’s visit there later this week.
Deputy national security adviser Ben Rhodes said Wednesday that Obama is “hugely popular” in Latin America, and overall, the opinion of U.S. leadership there is on the rise. He said leaders in the region, like Venezuela’s Hugo Chavez, can no longer stoke anti-American sentiment to promote their agendas.
Eager to cast the U.S. and Latin American countries as strong partners, Rhodes said, “There’s no region in the world that we’re more deeply engaged in than the Americas.”Obama will promote that theme personally during a five-day trip to Brazil, Chile and El Salvador.
Wonder what Obama’s approval rating is in Caracas these days.

O.K., Seriously, Ed, what can you tell me about that SHIRT???
"Wonder what Obama’s approval rating is in Caracas these days."
Correct. And he should be aiming to be president of Venezuela (or Cuba) instead of the United States, since he seems so eager to please every Tomás, Ricardo and Haroldo but not Americans.
Gotero de nombres, LOL!
He's going to need their willing support when he and his marxist statist buddies decide to carve a huge piece of Central and South America away from South America to make a new national conglomerate called The North American Union...kinda rolls off the tongue like Soviet Union, doesn't it?
Maybe he can bring back a bunch of voters. Then, he can get them Driver's Licenses, Certificates of Live Birth, apoint them as Czars...free college, free food
You know....just everything our society has busted their ASS for. Welcome to what used to be America
Don't forget social security numbers from Connecticut!
Was it Connecticut? I thought it was from Jersey.
That shirt is wonderful. Mr. Editor, here is your chance to retire early. Start silk screening those babies and you'll make a fortune!
Retirement is overrated. I'm going to work 'til they pry the keyboard from my cold, dead hands.
That's a good thing. What would we do without you?
What a steaming pile of bullsh*t AyPee has published!
Brazil recently installed a socialist president this past November, and that is where Obama is going next. Of course they love Obama. He's one of the elites.
But I submit to you, as much as the AyPee claims Latin American loves Obama, the fact is they don't care. They have their own problems: rising fuel costs stemming from the US government imposed insanity known as ethanol, as well as rising food costs. Tortillas, a food staple is Latin America, are made from corn. They're rising as well.
You'd think Mexico, which is right next door to the US, would love Obama as well, but the fact is that when an online debate in Mexican press websites comes up that involves the US, Obama's name never comes up. It's as if they have better things to do than to stroke the ego of the American Grifter.
I. NEED. THAT. SHIRT!
My current favorite is my "Mickey Che" from Beaurocrash--Che with Mickey Mouse ears.
