Obama Jokes About Diverting Air Force One to Visit Hugo Chavez; Sean Penn En Route to Caracas Just in Case

The president, on the way back from the NATO summit in Portugal, seems in no particular hurry to return to Slurpeeland.

From CBS News’ Mark Knoller and CNN’s Ed Henry aboard Air Force One (via HAP and Fox Nation):

Maybe Obama just wanted to return Hugo’s book and apologize for making notes in the margin.

Sean Penn is most likely on his way to Venezuela as we speak just in case this is no joke.

    That’s the joke of an idiot. No doubt his intent is to annoy the “right-wingers” of us out there, but it’s a thoughtless, idiotic way to do it.

    After the last election Obummer, for the first time in his life, knelt down and prayed, “God, please make the American people love me, PLEEEEEEZ!”

    Some time later, he received a call from the Reverend Billy Graham, who said “God told me to call you and say that even He can’t do things that are logically impossible like round squares, triangles with less than 180 degrees, or making you popular.”

    IF by comodian you mean a bathroom attendant, then no, as Obowmao is more qualified than most.

    Obama allowed Dannny Ortega to savagely attack the United States in front of Obama and Obama said not one word in defense of the United States. Instead, Obama said only that “I’m glad President Ortega didn’t blame me for things that happened when I was six years old”. Implicit in the Obama statement was his agreement with Ortega about Ortega’s views of the United States. The only thing that Obama wanted to make clear was that he (Obama) was only six years old when the US did all these colonialist misdeeds. Obama gave a warm and hearty greeting to Chavez. Contrast that with Obama’s refusal to be photographed with the Prime Minister of Israel and his stalking out of his meeting with Bibi Netanyahu, saying Netanyahu could meet instead with Obama’s underlings as Bibi was unworthy of sitting in the same room at the Deity known as Obama.

    Says Marc, and he allowed the Mexican President to attack Arizona.

    I would say Obama would be much more comfortable hobnobbing with tyrants and spend a second at a Tea Party. So you can see who his true enemies are.

    Some interesting developments on the eligibility issue over the last few months…

    May 2, 2010 Governor Lingle makes claims about Dr. Fukino’s first news release, and Governor Lingles’s claims are DEMONSTRABLY FALSE. See youtube recording of the Governor’s claims in the comments below. Compare Lingle’s claims to the news release to see that what Lingle said is NOT TRUE. But then, CNN Edited Governor Lingle’s Words to Conceal her Lie and Create their own Lie.

    July 27, 2010 Sharon Rondeau (from the Post & Email), requests the Certificates of Nomination that were produced by the RNC, DNC, and the Democratic Party of Hawaii to the Hawaii Elections Office.

    September 30, 2010 Petition for a writ of certiorari filed at the United States Supreme Court in the case of Charles Kerchner, Jr., et al., Petitioners v. Barack H. Obama, President of the United States, et al. (Response due November 3, 2010)

    November 2, 2010 Barry and the Democrat Party receive a “shellacking” by We the People of the United States of America.

    November 3, 2010 Waiver of right of respondents Barack H. Obama, President of the United States, et al. to respond filed in the case of Kerchner v. Obama.

    November 8, 2010 The petition for a writ of certiorari in the case of Kerchner v. Obama is DISTRIBUTED for Conference of November 23, 2010.

    November 16, 2010 After being stonewalled by the Hawaii Elections Office and Office of Information Practices for nearly four months, Sharon Rondeau notifies them that if the documents are not sent to her within ten more business days, she will file a lawsuit in Circuit Court against them.

    November 17, 2010 After being threatened with said lawsuit, the Hawaii Elections Office releases the requested Nomination Certificates. The released documents reveal that the Democratic Party of Hawaii followed Hawaiian election law in 2000 and 2004, but broke that law in 2008 by changing the legally required eligibility language.

    Yep, Sharon Rondeau at

    is doing a great job. Let us pray that the SCOTUS finally grows a pair and does it’s job on 11-23-2010, which is to finally take an eligibility case on it’s merits and make a decision on natural born citizen. If they don’t, and LTC Terry Lakin is sentenced to prison for trying to uphold his oath to the Constitution, there will never have been a worse travesty of justice.

    That the media, including the so-called “conservative” media, refuses to report on any of this in a “fair and balanced” way, or in any way for that matter , just redefines the death of journalism that occured in 2008 and continues to this day.

    Dear Hugo,
    I am sending you Barack Obama. Please find a good home for him.

    If you like, I also have a slightly used Biden you may be interested in. The body is old, but the brain has very little mileage on it.

    If you are interested, we have a large assortment of actors which we would be willing to trade for some of your petroleum.

    Thanks,

    What a tasteless, classless statement for the President of the United States to make! I don’t care how jet-lagged he was. That is the kind of “joke” a junior high schooler would make, not the man who has his big Communist finger on the red button. I am physicall ill hearing about such stupid, childish kidding! Or was he kidding? One never knows with this POS. How did we end up with such a fool??? I don’t wish harm to come to him, or to Biden. But a thought crossed my mind…if, God forbid, something DID happen to both of them, after January 3rd, we would have President John Boehner, NOT Nan Pelosi. That does give me some comfort!

    I think The One took a clumsy jab at Chavez for the ribbing he took over the book. At last year’s White House Correspondent’s Dinner he likened Chavez’s book gift to a pirate giving him a copy of Peter Pan. Chevez and Russia have been very chummy of late. Now The One is getting military help/deals from Russia through the NATO summit.

    Obama feels most at home in Muslim countries. Consider that his first major foreign trip as president was to Egypt where he essentially apologized to the Muslim world for what what Muslims believe to be centuries of injustice at the hands of the Christian West. Obama accepts the Muslim view of centuries of opression of Muslims by the Europeans and the West in general. Obama’s other favorite trip was his trip to Indonesia. Contrast that with his much publicized gesture of removing a bust of Sir Winston Churchill from the oval office and telling the British to take it back and put it where the sun don’t shine.
    Then consider that he refused to be photographed with the Prime Minister of Israel and walked out of his meeting with Netanyahu and publicly castigated Netanyahu.
    Obama managed, with the media’s help, to tone down his love of Islamic countries when he was campaigning. Once in office Obama showed his true colors and they are not red white and blue. Sadly, closer to green.
