The healthiest response to the “no better friend” platitudinous obamaesque drivel is to=run away!
It’s better to be an enemy of the US under Obummer than an ally.
If President Obama treats all of his allies with the same distain He showerd apon Israeli president Benjamien Netanyah.Then all of his flowery speeches mean nothing..Obama’s actions count more than his words. After all he and Sarkozy took great delight in demeaning the Isreali President.!!!
The Israeli President is an arsehole – & Obama does not treat anyone with disdain !! You’re an ignorant bigot Mary Singh who cannot even get her facts straight !!
In what way did Obama treat BN with disdain??
