Obama NOT President Yet and Making Problems With Other Countries
Polish President Lech Kaczynski and President-elect Barack Obama had different interpretations of a telephone conversation Friday over U.S.
Obama, Polish president at odds on call
President-elect Barack Obama's private conversation with Poland's president created an international disagreement Saturday, with President Lech Kaczynski saying Mr. Obama promised to continue a missile-defense system and the transition office saying the Democrat made no such commitment.
President Bush's White House declined to weigh in on the Friday phone call between the Polish leader and Mr. Obama, who will take office Jan. 20.
Mr. Obama has spoken with at least 15 world leaders including Mr. Kaczynski and Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk.
Mr. Kaczynski issued a statement in the Polish-language section of his Web site saying the U.S. president-elect "emphasized the importance of the strategic partnership of Poland and the United States and expressed hope in the continuation of political and military cooperation between our countries. He also said that the missile-defense project would continue."
Obama senior foreign policy adviser Denis McDonough released a statement once the news came from Poland.
"President-elect had a good conversation with the Polish president and the Polish prime minister about the important U.S.-Poland alliance," Mr. McDonough said. "President Kaczynski raised missile defense but President-elect Obama made no commitment on it. His position is as it was throughout the campaign — that he supports deploying a missile-defense system when the technology is proved to be workable."
Politico.com reported Saturday night that Obama advisers Susan Rice and Tony Lake e-mailed "Obama foreign policy experts" with details on the transition and a warning they should not "under any circumstances speak to the press, any foreign officials, or embassies on behalf of the transition or President-elect Obama."
"We cannot emphasize enough the importance of this request. It would be highly damaging for foreign governments or media to receive information that they believe falsely to represent the views of the president-elect," they wrote in an e-mail dated Nov. 7.
Wild Thing's comment.........
LOL he has yet to take office and he is ticking off a leader of a foreign country. Then his team sends out a memo about not spilling the beans to the media. The media that has been 95% of the reason Obama got elected President. hahaha Just too funny!!!
World leaders and allies take note. Hussein is a liar!
Obama has no nexecutive and foreign policy experience. Obama’s message to Poland: We’re cozying up to the Bear now. You’re toast.
We are going to be the laughingstock of the world when Obambi takes over. Can’t wait to see what happens when someone kicks sand in pussy boy’s face. Who’s he going to go whine too? The newspapers?
"President Bush's White House declined to weigh in on the Friday phone call between the Polish leader and Mr. Obama, "
George Bush to Obama.......“No 3:00 a.m. phone calls, please, Barack.”
Bush is not stupid, he knows the world that has been doing their worship of Obama the messiah will soon find out he is just s liar, and two faced.
LOL

Welcome to our 44th president elect's administration Mr. Lord Chamberlain 1939 / 2009! Vlad Putin realizes that 007 and Ronald Reagan are dead?

well, the world wanted "change" in America and they got it. Obama is going to be a frustration for our allies and a real sucker to be played by our enemies.

So much for the one President at a time thing. Last July Obama tried to get the Iraqi government to delay US troop withdrawals to make Bush look bad so that he would get all the credit after he became President. Obama also assured the Palestinians that he supported a divided Jerusalem and the Syrians that he supported a full Israeli withdrawal from the Golan Heights but to keep it secret. Now, a diplomatic flap with Poland on missile defense. Obama probably wasn't reading from his tele-prompter when he spoke to Polish President Lech Kaczynski.

Darth, yes Putin can see what Obama is, too bad so many Americans do not.
Posted by: Wild Thing at November 10, 2008 04:45 PM
Tom, yes I think so too. We have learned how hard it is to deal with a liar that is a leader of a country. Now Obama will be the liar like they are.
