Here is my advice to Pres Calderon of Mexico, PM Harper of Canada or Pres Uribe of Colombia:
Become an enemy of the US, support terrorism, kill US soldiers in Iraq, threaten Israel and develop a nuclear program.
Perhaps, Canada should say that they are withdrawing their troops from Afghanistan! Or say that they will sell their oil to China!
Kidding?
This is how you get on Pres BO's "talk show" or get attention from this White House.
As Pres BO continues down the path of assuming that he can change bad guys with his personality, he is failing one huge presidential test:
We don't elect presidents to do talk shows. That's what Oprah and Cristina do!
We don't elect presidents to be popular for the sake of being popular. That's what entertainers do!
We elect our presidents to promote US interests and support our allies, such as Mexico, Canada and Colombia.
Bill Katz has noticed that even the liberal Washington Post has picked up on BO's anti-ally style:
"Message to Mr. Chávez and the Castro brothers: We can work with you.
Message to Cuba's democratic opposition: We don't have time for you."
Look around the world and you will see that BO's foreign policy puts our enemies first!
Wonder who put all of that in his head?
Down in Mexico, Pres Calderon, perhaps one of the most serious leaders in that country's history, has just seen our Pres BO violate NAFTA.
Over in Congress, the Dems are lining up one excuse after another to delay funding The Merida Plan.
Apparently, some Dems are concerned about "human rights" violations in Mexico! Are the same Black Congressional Caucus Dems who went down to Cuba to hold talks with Raul Castro?
We are not going to defend everything that happens in Mexico. However, I don't think that Mexico should be very high on our list of countries with human rights violations!
It's hard to think of Mexican human rights violations in the context of Iran killing its people and throwing out foreign reporters!
Down in Colombia, Pres Uribe is being told that "they are" killing labor leaders.
In other words, Nancy Pelosi has directed Pres BO to discontinue any discussions about the Colombia Free Trade Agreement until "they" stop killing labor leaders!
Of course, Mexican trucks are safe and Colombia is not intentionally killing labor leaders.
Nevertheless, facts don't matter because BO and Pelosi have to pay back the unions that spent millions to get them elected!
US labor unions do not like free trade agreements. Nancy Pelosi has ordered BO to follow whatever the unions are saying.
As the WSJ wrote today:
"Democrats nonetheless continue to prevent a vote on the FTA.
Big Labor has simply drawn a line in the sand against any new trade agreements, and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is complying.
Colombia gets whacked." (WSJ)
Nancy is the conductor and she has ordered BO to whack Mexico and Colombia!
She forced him to sing the "stimulus" that has not stimulated the US economy one bit!
It did add US$ 800 billion to our current federal budget deficit.
We have gone from a deficit relative to GDP of 4% under Bush to 10% under BO!
Are these the same people who used to talk about Bush's deficits?
We are yearning for the day when BO takes as much interest in working with Mexico and Colombia as he does in writing pre-election letters to to the Iranian thugs shooting their citizens.
Wonder what all of those marchers in Iran think about Pres BO sending a pre-election letter to the people shooting them?
Hope and change?
Maybe Pres BO should fly to Mexico and apologize for violating NAFTA? That's one apology that makes sense!
