Barack Obama is noted for carrying a lot of grudes. Among the first thing BO did as president was to return a bust of Winston Churchill to the Brits. The Obama adminstration has made it a point to deny any special relationship with Britian. Now the Obmatards have proved it, from the BBC:
A senior US official has told the BBC Washington decided not to tell London ahead of time about a deal to resettle four Guantanamo detainees in Bermuda.
A diplomatic row blew up over Bermuda’s decision to accept the four Chinese Muslim Uighurs on a US request.
Bermuda is a British overseas territory but the US official said Washington had acted secretly to ensure success.

Team Obama Kept Gitmo Uighur Deal From Great Britain
Unreal! The Obama Administration kept the Gitmo Uighur deal from Great Britain– Even as they were negotiating with the British overseas territory of Bermuda to dump a few of the Gitmo detainees.
So much for the end of cowboy diplomacy. So much for the Obama’s administration so-called smart diplomacy. So much for having allies.

You know, I’m hearing here and there about the “smart diplomacy” that this new adminstration is using and I sense an underlying theme that many think that our leaders are being stupid.The fact is, this is simply one more straw added to our allies back since Obama has been running the show , therefor we should logically conclude that we are doing this on purpose….hence….From Obama’s point of view, it is smart.The unanswered question is simply, why we are doing it in the first place….To what end?
