Obama Doesn't Just Pisses Off Americans

With Obama polling favorably with less than 47% with Amercians, Obama has decided to piss off another nation- Norway.
Barack Obama's trip to Oslo to pick up his Nobel peace award is in danger of being overshadowed by a row over the cancellation of a series of events normally attended by the prizewinner.
Norwegians are incensed over what they view as his shabby response to the prize by cutting short his visit.
The White House has cancelled many of the events peace prize laureates traditionally submit to, including a dinner with the Norwegian Nobel committee, a press conference, a television interview, appearances at a children's event promoting peace and a music concert, as well as a visit to an exhibition in his honour at the Nobel peace centre.
He has also turned down a lunch invitation from the King of
Norway.
According to a poll published by the daily tabloid VG, 44% of Norwegians believe it was rude of Obama to cancel his scheduled lunch with King Harald, with only 34% saying they believe it was acceptable.

This again shows the inexperience or the stupidity of the Obama administration. And they said George Bush was stupid. Nope, Obama is showing that he is really mentally deficient in the ways of governing, leading and just about everything else. Pathetic.

  1. So, now you're saying that you think the President is not being deferential enough to the feelings of foreigners and is not making a big enough deal out of his Nobel. Weren't you, just a few short months ago, bullyragging him for getting an award that he should have refused and of kowtowing to the world at the expense of the US?

    What might the President do in this situation that would please you? What could he do to gain your praise?

  2. There is a protocol winners follow. Obama didn't. Just follow the protocols. Why piss of the people of Norway? I mean, they may have some to offer the U.S. besides Lutefisk.
    And yes, he didn't deserving the award. Actually, I don't think I really say much about Obama bowing before the Arabs and Emporer, but again, he did not follow protocol when he did do that.
