Title: Obama Hates the British???
Post by: Howey on February 28, 2010, 09:45:43 am
Or, does lilMike hate Obama?

I find this totally inexplicable.  I just don't understand what Obama is doing with our foreign policy.  Is it really as simple as personal hatred of the UK?

Washington refused to endorse British claims to sovereignty over the Falkland Islands yesterday as the diplomatic row over oil drilling in the South Atlantic intensified in London, Buenos Aires and at the UN.

Despite Britain’s close alliance with the US, the Obama Administration is determined not to be drawn into the issue. It has also declined to back Britain’s claim that oil exploration near the islands is sanctioned by international law, saying that the dispute is strictly a bilateral issue.

From the link:

Quote
British officials in Washington said that they were comfortable with the US response to the dispute

I seem to recall in 1982, when the Argentinians invaded the Falklands, even Mike's worshiped God Reagan didn't want to get involved, other than to try to negotiate a peace treaty. Yet, even that minimal involvement was at the request of the British.

Today, the Brits don't want our help. But lilMike wants what? For us to invade Argentina?

WTF?

Nope.


At least for me.  I can't speak for the Times.
