The Danger Of B.Hussein Obama’s Amateur Diplomacy



The danger of Obama’s amateur diplomacy

American Thinker

Thomas Lifson

After suggesting that he would invade our ally Pakistan and talk to our enemy Iran, Barack Obama has moved on to potentially damage our relations with Canada, our friendly neighbor and number one foreign oil supplier.


Under the terms of NAFTA, Canada is prohibited from cutting off oil exports to the US if there is a worldwide shortage or supply disruption unless supplies are also rationed to Canadian consumers by the same amount.

After the Hillary/Obama debate, Canada's trade minister pointed out that if NAFTA is re-opened, Canada might want to opt out of this clause, which would then leave Canada free to sell its oil to any other country for whatever price it could get.

Both Clinton and Obama have made a big issue out President Bush's alleged insensitivies to other countries. And now these two geniuses are blithely talking about canceling a trade agreement with our two neighbors on which both their economies now depend.

The Financial Times reports:

"Beijing has signalled its interest in Canada's growing oil sector. Two of China's biggest energy groups, China National Offshore Oil Co and Sinopec, have invested in small Calgary-based companies with ambitions to extract heavy crude oil from oilsands in Canada."

So the Obama campaign has been caught in a lie and is potentially opening a door for China (among others) to become involved in our most secure source for foreign oil, where the oil sands contain deposits equal to those of Saudi Arabia, while alienating our best friends in foreign countries.


Wild Thing's comment........

He isn't even President yet and he is going to make all these problems before he even gets elected.

President Barack Hussein Obama will get by with "MY BAD" replies during his White House press conferences?

It might just be coincidence, with NAFTA and the effort to install the NAU by Bush and China's interest in offshore development of oil in the waters off Cuba, that the United States is forbidden to drill for, that a very little known man who has had enormous influence in Canada's oil and gas industry as well as having Chinese and UN contacts may have surfaced again, Maurice Strong:
http://www.afn.org/~govern/strong.html

http://www.sovereignty.net/p/sd/strong.html

http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m1282/is_n16_v49/ai_19722906

Among his network of contacts:
Former Vice President Al Gore.
Kofi Annan
World Bank President James Wolfensohn, formerly on the Rockefeller Foundation Board and currently on the Population Council Board; he was Al Gore's favored candidate for the World Bank position.
James Gustave Speth, head of the Carter Administration's Council on Environmental Quality, crafter of the doomladen Global 2000 report, member of the Clinton - Gore transition team; he now heads the UN Development Program.
Shridath Ramphal, formerly Secretary General of the (British) Commonwealth, now Co-Chairman of the Commission on Global Governance.
Jonathan Lash, President of the World Resources Institute -- which works closely with the World Bank, the UN Environment Program, and the UN Development Program -- and Co-Chairman of the President's Council on Sustainable Development.
Ingvar Carlsson, former Swedish prime minister and Co-Chairman of the Commission on Global Governance.

It seems he was involved in the Saddam Hussein scam too and has since been on the lam in China.

With Strong always behind the scenes and the two Communists, Clinton and Obama, vying to destroy this nation it doesn't surprise me that they would try to broker a deal with Canada to further strip the United States of it's ability to maintain it's place as a world leader and it's ability to protect itself by stripping away the energy resources the nation needs. Strong will be there to advance the Chinese and destroy the West.

God he is such a moron!
He is a psychopath and believes he is already
KING of America and what he says goes.
Bull! He is a danger to himself and others and his bitchy whiny wife is enabling him because she just HAS to be First Lady.

Barack Obama and his foreign policy advisors couldn't be more wrong in their approach to the world. There is no question that Obama would be a disaster as President causing great harm to the country, the Constitution, and western values.

However, the same is true for Hillary Clinton and John McCain. Does anyone really sleep better and feel more secure in knowing that Hillary Clinton says that on Day 1 she is prepared to answer that 3 AM phone call to the White House?

John McCain may be a supporter of the war on terror in Iraq but just what does that mean? How does he define success and how would he be more effective than George Bush in dealing with an anti-war and anti-American Democrat controlled Congress? A RINO is as a RINO does.

May G-d have mercy on our country. We have lost our way.

Les I bet there are more prayers being said now then ever before when it comes to our country.

I do not fear the terrorists like I do the enemy within. Or at least it is a different kind of fear would probably be a better way for me to say it.
