Obama bow to Saudi king led to Times Square plot: Michael Scheuer

[RamboLiberal]

The Times Square bomb "100% worked," the NYPD was "dead beat" by the bomber, and President Barack Obama's bow to the Saudi King led to the plot, in the first place. That's all true if you believe Fox News guest Michael Scheuer.

-----

Kilmeade then gave Scheuer the chance to connect the failed bombing to Obama's foreign policy. "The speech in Cairo, it was supposed to begin the healing process that George Bush caused so much damage. We're supposed to be on a new era and a new page. Have we turned a page? Has anyone acknowledged? Has anything gotten any better?" asked Kilmeade.

"No, Mr. Obama has made things much, much worse because he promised the Muslim world things that he will never do. He recognized that our relationship with the Israelis was a problem. He's never going to change that," answered Scheuer.

"He accepted the courtesy and even hugged Hosni Mubarak who is one of the most brutal dictators in the Muslim world," Scheuer continued.

"He bowed to the Saudi King when he was out there in Saudi Arabia -- showing his subservience," he concluded.

5. The hand holding photo is legit. Not so sure about the kissing one.

It looks photoshopped to me.

Is it?

[jenmito]

10. Yes, that's photoshopped. n/t

14. Thanks Jen, that's what I thought. It's been posted at DU so many times I think people

have forgotten it's fake.

[RamboLiberal]

15. Thanks - sorry about screwing that up

I never knew that one was a photoshop or just forgot. Found it on DU. Tough sometimes trying to post & work.

But there are plenty of pics of Bush holding hands and kissing the Saudis.

6. Free speech allows for people to say moronic things

The desire to see a wreck in progress makes that person's words be heard by many.

:shrug:

Unless it was for political gain.

8. That is a photoshop. Let's stick to facts people! nt

16. My mistake - tough when doing an image search on the internet

to separate the real from the photoshopped.

But there are plenty of other images and videos that are real of Bush holding hands & kissing the Saudis.

i.e. this from Rachel Maddow show. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x99nt-LbNFM

9. The repuke RWINGNUT reality is totally based on Looney Tune Cartoons, it would seem.

[Cant trust em]

11. It would be great if we could get some kind of Fox News disclaimer on OPs

That way I could just see that it was going to be a steaming pile and wouldn't have to bother clicking on the thread.

:puke:

12. I think it's from when Bush had his tongue down the Saudi King's throat.

13. That's it! The King was pissed that he only got a bow but no kiss.
