1. No.

He's the President. He's very busy.

[mikelgb]

2. correct answer: Noway.

[timeforpeace]

21. We don't care what the rest of the world thinks about us.

[Unvanguard]

3. Do we care? Seriously? n/t

[ShortnFiery]

5. We should care. You know the "goodwill thing?"

It seems as if "the HOPE leader" is morphing into "the DESPAIR leader" in record time and throughout the World Community. :(

6. Being impolite (sorta-kinda) to Norway affects in no substantive way our foreign policy.

It's a silly complaint.

[ShortnFiery]

7. Sure, you betcha. It's not like he's escalating a WAR or anything CONTRARY to his visit ....

:crazy:

[Unvanguard]

8. Then complain about the war, not about this non-event. n/t

9. If you turn on the news right now, you'd see the tens of thousands standing

outside the Obamas' hotel cheering them after a parade in their honor.

10. Thank you!

:bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

[ShortnFiery]

12. Enjoy it today because President Obama's POSITIVE influence while on the World's Stage is ...

taking major hits.

Not even Rahm can control the CONFLICTING messages.

[NYCGirl]

16. Yes, Rahm the big boogeyman runs everything!

:eyes:

Geez, get a grip.

[AspenRose]

17. That is a bit of a stretch.

You're capable of better commentary than that

[amandabeech]

15. Oil and gas? A staunch NATO ally that shows up for missions? n/t

[Unvanguard]

18. Neither of those things are likely to be impacted by this.

It's a brief, stupid scandal, that will probably have the Norwegian and US media talking about it for a little while. It won't actually change much of anything.

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

4. No, but apparently he's pissed off the Swedes and they're acting belligerent.

[SIMPLYB1980]

11. LoL!

:spank:

[amandabeech]

14. What did they do? Force the President and Michelle to eat lutefisk?

Enquiring Swedish-American minds want to know.

[jberryhill]

13. Okay, to whom did he bow this time?

Tiger Woods' wife?

[cherokeeprogressive]

19. Snore. I HATE Subway.

Oh wait... nevermind.

[BluDemocratGirl]

20. Snub Norway?

Helloooooooo?!!!!! Wasn't he there today?
