Is Obama snubbing another foreign leader?

FOREIGN POLICY

After the Gordon Brown debacle, you would think the White House would put a little more thought into planning for visits by visiting heads of state. But Brazil is already grumbling about the treatment of President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, who will sit down with Obama this weekend and is the first Latin American leader to visit the White House under the new administration.

Silva aides said the trip was pushed forward from Tuesday because of the St. Patrick's Day holiday - making Latin America once again look like an afterthought. Then, the White House announcement misspelled his name as "Luis Ignacio" and put "Lula" - a nickname that decades ago became a legal part of the Brazilian leader's name - in quotes.

I'm sure he'll feel better when he gets his DVDs.

They're too busy planning how to destroy our wealth to take care of any protocol matters right. Hell, it's a full time job for the assholes.

Oh the irony!!!
Guess it had to happen sooner or later. Will all the blacks want reparations for the shame this black president has brought upon the world?

He's snubbing all the Western countries and embracing all the Islamic countries... hmmmmmm.

A duck that can't even quack properly without a teleprompter.
