On the eve of the allied air assault against Libya Moammar Khadafy had this to say in a personal letter to Obama: "I have said to you before that even if Libya and the United States enter into war, God forbid, you will always remain my son and I have all the love for you as a son." This echoes what he had previously said some time back in a long and rambling and incoherent speech to the UN body in a kind of sonnet: "we are content and happy if Obama can stay forever as a President of United States of America." Venezuelan dictator Hugo Chavez had warm greetings for Obama at the Summit of the Americas back in the day, they hugged or high-fived or fist-bumped or something and Chavez gave him a book. Raul Castro, brother of Fidel once said "Obama seems like a good man" and wished him luck. They say they can tell.
I must be giving off the wrong vibe or something:)
Look, You Liberals who Voted for him, got him. Now we are all living with him.
ReplyDeleteDictators' love for Obama, it's like when you were in school and say the school weirdo took a shine to you, wanted to be your friend or Hinckley says "how's it goin'?" when you're visiting your homey in the other room. I don't recall dictators lovin' Reagan ya know?
ReplyDeletePretty embarrassing, who would want a letter from a
ReplyDeletepsycho with a duffus wardrobe and a bevy of
Amazon bodyguards...probably had postage due...
& that's the whole point of my thread. BB gets the thread (again) and the only other extension of my point is why do so many dictatorial types seem to have a soft spot for Obama? Not saying Obama aspires to be some type of desert despot himself or wants to tyrannize the country but clearly there's something going on here and if I were Obama I'd be going over my style. Less apologizing, talk tougher, that sort of thing. In other words grow a pair or borrow Hillary's:)
