Qaddafi Lauds Obama, Then Launches Into Rambling Attack on U.N.
Wednesday, September 23, 2009
www.foxnews.com
Libyan leader Muammar Qaddafi, declaring that "we'd be content and happy if Obama can stay president forever," launched into a rambling assault against the United Nations Security Council on Wednesday, at one point complaining to world leaders gathered to hear him speak that he was tired and jet lagged.
Sometimes speaking in phrases mocking New York City's security efforts during the 64th gathering of the U.N. General Assembly, Qaddafi swung between calling the Security Council a "Terror Council," to demanding that European nations pay $7.7 trillion in compensation and apologize for colonizing Africa, at one point adding, "African nations have the right to go anyplace to get the $7.7 trillion stolen from it."
Qaddafi spoke after President Barack Obama's first speech to the General Assembly.
Referencing Obama as "my son," Qaddafi said: "We are happy that a young African Kenyan was voted for and made president. Obama is a glimpse in the dark for the next four years, but I'm afraid we may go back to squar one.
"Can the U.S. guarantee after Obama that they'll be a government? We're happy and content if he can stay forever."
Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton and U.S. Ambassador Susan Rice left the chamber before Qaddafi took the podium and left a low-level note taker to listen.
Holding a copy of the United Nations Charter, Qaddafi said the U.N. was founded by the super powers and that now "small countries could be crushed by the super powers." At one point, he motioned to rip up the small blue Charter booklet, but instead he paused and seemed to lose his place as world leaders and their representatives sat in stunned silence.
He then continued to rail against the "inequality" of U.N. member states, often repeating himself while quoting from a section of the Charter that calls for equality of nations. He noted that five nations hold veto power on the Security Council and can block actions contrary to their interests: the United States, Russia, China, Britain and France. He later called for an African seat on the Security Council.
Waving his hands and often turning to look at United Nation's Secretary General Ban Ki-moon and the new General Assembly President H.E. Dr. Ali Abdussalam Treki — who also serves as Libya's minister of African affairs — Qaddafi defiantly declared, "Nobody cares about the Security Council."
He added, "this place was founded by terrorists."
As he fumbled through hand-written notes, he mixed his attacks with rambling references to: the Kennedy and King assassinations; the U.S. Civil War; the Korean War; the Suez War; Saddam Hussein's hanging; former dictator Manuel Noriega; jet lag; and, a defense of the Taliban and Somali pirates.

There is a reason dictators who hate America praise Obama. They are of similar mind-set.

Ha ha. 240 is having a bad day.
1. Kadafi calls Obama "his son"
2. Obama trashes the US at the UN
3. CBO again exposes Obama's lies on health care
4. Palin gives a succesful speech in China
5. Castro praises Obama
Bad day huh 240?

Its utterly embarassing to see this fiasco unfold. Pretty soon Obama will be wearing simliar garb to Kadafi. Oh, thats right, he already did that before.

Palin trashed american economic policy on chinese soil for french $.
You can diss obama all you want. Doesn't take away from the fact your girl skipped a speech at the reagan library in August and took this speech instead.

Where exactly does he trash america in his speech? Have you read the transcript or just interpretations of it from fox news?

SHE IS A PRIVATE CITIZEN!!!!MAKING MONEY IS WHAT YOUR SUPPOSED TO DO.Now,you can diss Palin all you want,it doesnt take away from the fact that Obama trashed the United States to entertain his pals in the UN.He opened for Qaddafi and they both hold the same views of this country.

Obama/Kadafi/Rev. Wright/Bill Ayeres/Van jones/Karakhan - are all one in the same.
-
Ur to fucking stupid to interpret what Obama says or does. He bashed the US in Cairo and applogizes for us every opportunity he gets. U can't even debate it, u don't understand the historical events he references, incorrectly as usual, but references in his speeches. He's weakkkkkkkkk.
-

If you hear his speech thats EXACTLY what happened today.Thats what he does.He hates this country and everything it stands for which is why he always says he wants to transform this country.

Too big to fail.
Obama could tell 240 that he was a whiye cracker and was going to put him in a firing squad and 240 would find a way to spin it against Palin.
-
He makes it seem that all our sacrifices, our entire history doesn't matter and that America needs to be transformed...or changed. No, we need plenty of things, but to change what makes this country great...thats what Barry wants. 240 u have a Masters, that course should have taught u how to think, ur not doing that. He's a far leftist and a danger to this country.
-
the original poster (33) tried to make the point some foreign leader's speech had something to do with the birth cert.
I see this not as an evaluation of the whole admin, but as a single guy saying something about obama.
And i'm still looking for the quote where obama bashed america today
i dont claim to be an expert on history, nor do I ever defend carter, cause I was 2 years old.

DEAR LEADER is a complete joke. He needs to resign immediately and just take a job with the U.N. since he obviously feels more comfortable with tin pot dictators and anti-american freaks than he does real deal Americans.

It was a joke that you obviously did not find funny.
Like I sad, bad day for 240 as Dear Leader is flopping all over the place, whether it be the CBO again smacking down Obamacare, Kadafi, Palin's successful speech, Castro praising Obama, etc.
-
When Kadafi and Castro are praising you, you are doing something wrong.

Yes sir, unreal.....un fucking real.

It's official, I'm not sure I can fucking read this board anymore ::)

Any time their words can be used to smear Obama, they matter.
When they rambled about Dubya for 8 years, they were inconsequential.

LOLOLOL
Who cares what Qaddafi says!?!?!
He's only the leader of an Islamofacist dictatorship that just gave a hero's welcome to the cockroach that blew up PAN AM flight 103, murdering about 200 innocent men, women and children.
I'm sure if he had called GW Bush his son, you and the rest of the liberal ass licker's on this website would have had an organized internet protest complete with you and 240 imming eachother revolutionary slogans with smiley faces and kisses.

Um.. NO.. Im not Prez of the US and leader of the free world. I'm not fighting two wars against Islamic terrorists and I'm not speaking at the UN.

Deal with it, the communist Chinese have a better grasp on capitilism and reality than Dear Leader does.
Just listen to the clips of "The One" I posted in the other thread about Hitler. "The One" is in an interview on full display with his marxist garbage.

Let me know when Obama starts publicly executing political dissident
God you get dumber every day
I'm really starting to wonder if you're mental patient with computer privileges

What I don't get is why morons like this dipshit and Ahmadinejad are given a forum to speak. You're telling me they can't fill their time slots with more relevant people? The fact that Iran isn't being completely isolated after their election fiasco is a travesty and really speaks wonders to just how "great" the UN is. An organization that preaches peace and rewards dictators with the opportunity to ramble for hours on end. ::)
-
My country, right or wrong.

I didnt say that. I said that as far as understanding basic economics, the Chinese are far more in tune with reality than Dear Leader.
I'm sorry you cant deal with this, but its the truth. One promotes savings, production, and manufacturing, the other promotes debt, windmills, and marxism.
I am not happy about it, but its the truth 240.

yeah - there should be some exit music or maybe a big hook or something when these guys start rambling on
I would rather have these guys talk and make asses of themselves and be publicly rejected like Ahamdinejad was then to not let them speak at all.

Serious, having Qaddafi telling the world that he is Obama's father and that he wants him to be president for life cant be too good.
Additionally, where was the gaffee hook for Obama after he threw Israel under the bus?

Why is it that there are over 100 countries in the UN and yet the same dictators are always speaking? How many times do we have to listen to Ahmadinejad? He regurgitates the same bullshit every time he opens his mouth. You're telling me that no one else wants to talk? It's ok for the UN to reward him for stealing an election by giving him a podium to open his mouth? Get the fuck out of here with that shit.
When did the UN become a forum for dictators and wannabe martyrs to ramble on for hours spewing their conspiracy theory bullshit and hate? The UN was a joke before. Now it's a laughing stock.

It helps when you have a work force with no rights. Kind of like the illegals in america. In fact by employing illegals i guess american's are following china's way wouldn't you agree?
-

Hey dipshit, Im not outraged about anything-- But your concious attempt to pass this off as nothing is laughable. If Hitler, Stalin, Pol Pot, Castro and Saddam Hussein issued press releases calling the President of the United States their "son" and calling for him to reign forever, would that be enough of a story for you to take seriously? Or, would that depend on whether the president was a democrat or a republican?
You, more than anyone on this board shits their panties when some off the wall right wing nut says or does something and you try to attribute it to the entire republican party. Now when an actual world leader, who by the way just held a parade for the mass murderer behind Pan Am 103 praises Obama, you act like its a non-story. You also ignore the fact that Qadafi has claimed that the terrorists release was in exchange for oil. Gee golly willikers! No story here!
Please, post more ad nauseum dickless left wing drivel about Glenn Beck and Sarah Palin starting their own "scare the straight into the youth" homophobic crime fighting duo and other imaginary horseshit.

Under our current system Dr's and hospitals do take advantage of people with full insurance. I'm not sure it's a wide spread issue but his point is there is no financial benefit to a Dr's in keeping patients healthy, they make more with costly tests and procedures. I don't believe there are a majority of Dr's who act this way in fact i'd be surprised if it was above 10% but it's taking away that temptation, that incentive that hey sick = money, healthy = no money. I don't see a problem with changing this to have Dr's be paid for keeping patients healthy rather than keeping patients sick. Right now as it stands people don't go to the Dr enough because of the cost. A lot of issue can be caught and treated early but if you can't afford it or your policy only covers so many visits then you are not going to go.
I often wonder the quality of life and how that could be changed for a majority of american's and i honestly believe it's not in the best interests of a country to be dictated to by for profit entities when it comes to life and death situations.

If i was them i would have to. Because as i said a majority of surgeons do not operate that way, however there are those who i'm sure do. They are a minority so Obama should have said as much.

Look, KC - I know you have a certain imagige of me and thats fine.
However, in all sincerity, the thing that gets me about Obama more than anything, almost every time, he correctly idenitifes the problem and the issue, yet always seemingly comes up with the opposite solution of what is called for.
He has me all the way, the identifing of the problem, the identifing of the issues, and then he screws it up by going in the opposite direction for what the solution should be.

Wouldn't it be more prudent, and certainly cost effective, to put in some regulations to root out those who abuse the system instead of blowing up the entire current system?

Gaddafi: Obama is a Friend
Pundit Press ^ | 2/24/11 | Aurelius
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/2679301/posts
________________________ ________________________ ___-
Yesterday we guessed at reasons why President Obama has had trepidation with dealing with Libya. We considered the fact that Rev. Jeremiah Wright was tied to Gaddafi and we even considered the fact that the White House could not spell "Libya." Another possibility: Obama was afraid that Gaddafi would tell the world that they were pals.
Now, obviously, there is no way to confirm that Gaddafi and Obama are actually friends unless the President comes out and says it, but we can sure report what Gaddafi said last year.
To quote Gaddafi:
"Now, ruling America is a black man from our continent, an African from Arab descent, from Muslim descent, and this is something we never imagined – that from Reagan we would get to Barakeh Obama."
Great. One of our President's biggest followers is a soon-to-be-deposed, iron-fisted ruler who kills protesters in his streets.
The article continues:
Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi considers the US president a blessing to the Muslim world. In a speech published in London-based al-Hayat newspaper on Saturday, Gaddafi praised Barack Obama, called him a "friend" and said there is no longer any dispute between his country and the US.
Speaking in the Libyan city of Sirt at an event marking the 24th anniversary of an American attack on Libya, he said, "At the time, we were the target of the American cannon, the American navy challenged us in the gulf of Sirt and attacked us all along Libya's shores. America tested Libya, and the Libyan people resisted the large country, but today, thank God, the difference is great..."
Gaddafi stressed that Obama's presidency is "a major historical gain" and said, "He is someone I consider a friend. He knows he is a son of Africa. Regardless of his African belonging, he is of Arab Sudanese descent, or of Muslim descent. He is a man whose policy should be supported, and he should be assisted in implementing it in any way possible, since he is now leaning towards peace."
He continued, "I urge all peoples to give him this chance and to support this policy, because America is a country that, when its policy is bad – harms the world, and when it is good – it helps the world."

Qaddafi Lauds Obama, Then Launches Into Rambling Attack on U.N.
Wednesday, September 23, 2009
www.foxnews.com
Libyan leader Muammar Qaddafi, declaring that "we'd be content and happy if Obama can stay president forever," launched into a rambling assault against the United Nations Security Council on Wednesday, at one point complaining to world leaders gathered to hear him speak that he was tired and jet lagged.
Sometimes speaking in phrases mocking New York City's security efforts during the 64th gathering of the U.N. General Assembly, Qaddafi swung between calling the Security Council a "Terror Council," to demanding that European nations pay $7.7 trillion in compensation and apologize for colonizing Africa, at one point adding, "African nations have the right to go anyplace to get the $7.7 trillion stolen from it."
Qaddafi spoke after President Barack Obama's first speech to the General Assembly.
Referencing Obama as "my son," Qaddafi said: "We are happy that a young African Kenyan was voted for and made president. Obama is a glimpse in the dark for the next four years, but I'm afraid we may go back to squar one.
"Can the U.S. guarantee after Obama that they'll be a government? We're happy and content if he can stay forever."
Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton and U.S. Ambassador Susan Rice left the chamber before Qaddafi took the podium and left a low-level note taker to listen.
Holding a copy of the United Nations Charter, Qaddafi said the U.N. was founded by the super powers and that now "small countries could be crushed by the super powers." At one point, he motioned to rip up the small blue Charter booklet, but instead he paused and seemed to lose his place as world leaders and their representatives sat in stunned silence.
He then continued to rail against the "inequality" of U.N. member states, often repeating himself while quoting from a section of the Charter that calls for equality of nations. He noted that five nations hold veto power on the Security Council and can block actions contrary to their interests: the United States, Russia, China, Britain and France. He later called for an African seat on the Security Council.
Waving his hands and often turning to look at United Nation's Secretary General Ban Ki-moon and the new General Assembly President H.E. Dr. Ali Abdussalam Treki — who also serves as Libya's minister of African affairs — Qaddafi defiantly declared, "Nobody cares about the Security Council."
He added, "this place was founded by terrorists."
As he fumbled through hand-written notes, he mixed his attacks with rambling references to: the Kennedy and King assassinations; the U.S. Civil War; the Korean War; the Suez War; Saddam Hussein's hanging; former dictator Manuel Noriega; jet lag; and, a defense of the Taliban and Somali pirates.

Quadaffi has never praised Palin, he has praised Obama - for obvious reasons.

LOLOLOL
Who cares what Qaddafi says!?!?!
He's only the leader of an Islamofacist dictatorship that just gave a hero's welcome to the cockroach that blew up PAN AM flight 103, murdering about 200 innocent men, women and children.
I'm sure if he had called GW Bush his son, you and the rest of the liberal ass licker's on this website would have had an organized internet protest complete with you and 240 imming eachother revolutionary slogans with smiley faces and kisses.

O what a web

Remember as a kid drawing connect-the-dots pictures? Simply follow the dots and a clear picture emerges. As an adult, connecting the dots of Obama's actions leads to an oxymoronic picture. A clear picture of a murky web. Obama's actions continually link him to people and causes that the majority of Americans do not support. The recent event of another aid ship sailing to Gaza is an example of to whom and what the strands of Obama's web link him, and unfortunately America.
Last year, right around the time Libyan dictator Muammar Gaddafi called Obama "our son," Obama earmarked $400,000 for two Libyan charities. The money was divided between two foundations run by Gaddafi's children; Gaddafi International Charity and Development Foundation, run by his son Saif, and Wa Attassimou, run by his daughter Aicha. What noble causes did our tax dollars potentially help support thanks to Obama's generosity?
Funding of the ship Amalthea: The Amalthea sailed to Israel with the intent of breaking the Israeli blockade on Hamas. It carried aid for a pseudo humanitarian crisis and supporters who were said to be "keen on expressing solidarity with the Palestinian people in the plight amidst the siege imposed on Gaza." The ship was funded by Saif Gaddafi's charity, Gaddafi International Charity and Development Association. Obama's friend, Bill Ayers, joined attempt #1 against Israel's blockade on Hamas. Saif joined attempt #2. One has to wonder which of Obama's friends will step up to the plate at attempt #3.
The release of Lockerbie bomber Abdel Baset al-Megrahi: Saif Gaddafi was involved in negotiating the convicted bomber's release, and accompanied him back to Libya, where al-Megrahi was praised and welcomed. For those who have forgotten the extent of the carnage of the Lockerbie bombing, 270 people, including 189 Americans, were killed.
Honoring Iraqi journalist, Muntazer al-Zaidi: Al-Zaidi is the journalist who threw his shoe at President George W. Bush. He was given a bravery award by Aicha Gaddafi's charity, Wa Attassimou. The charity stated that al-Zaidi's actions "represented a victory for human rights across the world."
As long as we are connecting the dots between Obama and Libya, now seems a good time to remember that the state department issued an official apology to Libya after spokesman P.J. Crowley made disparaging comments about Gaddafi's call for jihad against Switzerland. Apparently Crowley spoke on instinct instead of running his reaction by Libya's "son" first. As an Obamian spinmeister, Crowley learned that one doesn't speak ill of "family."
What a web Obama continues to spin. One can only hope he falls into it soon, before all of American is smothered by it.
