I wonder if he got the Badr one in secret so he could hold up the Goodr one to show Americans he was merely collared by his king.
During his stay in Cairo, Egypt, where he gave his longest and arguably most anticipated speech yet, President Obama indulged in some tourism, visiting the Great Pyramids of Giza, which he labeled "awe-inspiring". Obama described the tour as the best off the record (OTR) experience of his presidency so far -- The president's brief stay in Cairo included a visit to the Sultan Hassan mosque, a 600-year-old center of Islamic worship and study. He also toured the Great Pyramids of Giza, and joked with reporters that if they were not present, "I'd get on a camel." Some of his aides did just that. At one point during the tour, Obama is reported to have spotted a hieroglyphic of a large-eared man, spurring the remark, ""That looks like me!" Look at those ears!" <embed src="http://c.brightcove.com/services/viewer/federated_f8/1155201977" bgcolor="#FFFFFF" flashVars="videoId=25292090001&playerId=1155201977&viewerSecureGatewayURL=https://console.brightcove.com/services/amfgateway&servicesURL=http://services.brightcove.com/services&cdnURL=http://admin.brightcove.com&domain=embed&autoStart=false&" base="http://admin.brightcove.com" name="flashObj" width="486" height="412" seamlesstabbing="false" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" swLiveConnect="true" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/index.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash"></embed>
Apologies, I did not. I assumed the video link was enough. But if it makes you feel better, yes, it's from HuffPo. here ya go http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/06/04/obama-tours-pyramids-five_n_211371.html
I don't think he is selling out Israel at all. The reality is that Israel has to give up on building the settlements, that's part of the peace process that has predated Obama. I agree with that it was a mistake for Obama to bow down to any king. Obama must remember he represents the leader of the United States and he is equal to any head of state. I disagree with you on the holding hands things. Who the heck cares? But I do sense that you are finding reasons to mock Obama and such....I mean, give the guy a chance man.
Why the hell is Obama over there apologizing when most of the 9/11 terrorists were from countries in that region? Why the hell aren't they the ones crawling back to us begging for forgiveness?
This is the problem - it's this kind of attitude. You expect them to see America as good when America lumps a billion people in with the 9/11 terrorists. What you are writing reflects an almost xenophobic attitude. Their gov'ts were not involved in 9/11. Not a single one of their gov'ts. It was the Taliban and Al Qaeda which does not represent the Muslim or Arabic world....or a single Muslim or Arabic country! Yet you ask them to apologize for 9/11. Our gov't has done wrong there. Not vice versa. If you don't comprehend this, I just think you'll never understand.
I did. I thought his speechwriters did a mediocre job I think Barack's head tilting was ridiculous, as always
Oh I guess you just didn't understand it then. You seemed to be under the impression that it was about apologizing.
what a cowering p***y that obama is. i can totally imagine him saying that while on his knees in from of ahmadinejad.
I'm missing the whole apology part and have read the "Iran part" several times. Please point out the apology. TIA
the challenge has been issued and the words are right there. It is very clear. bigtexxx can either back up his words or slink away in shame. There are only two options.
