Obama’s Warming To China Seen As Slight In India
The statement, on its surface, seemed like any other bland missive released at the end of a polite visit by a head of state. It was put out by the united States and China after President Obama's visit there, and said that the two countries would "work together to promote peace, stability and development" in South Asia.
But on the eve of the visit to Washington by the Indian prime minister Manmohan Singh, where on Tuesday he will be the guest of honor at President Obama's first state dinner, the words rank as one of several perceived slights that have dampened hopes for a new chapter in the sometimes rocky relationship between the United States and India.
The vague statement has been widely interpreted here as an invitation to China to meddle in India's backyard, and prompted howls of dismay across the political spectrum.
"How can you make China responsible for keeping peace in South Asia?" said Prem Shankar Jha, a columnist and political analyst, channeling the prevailing sentiment among Delhi's chattering class. "China has done nothing in South Asia except to play a destructive role here," he continued, referring to China's close ties to India's archrival, Pakistan.

ROMNEY / DeMINT in 2012!
Have we LOST our common sense !!
We don't have many choices; however our best bets are:
1. Vote every Democrat out of office in 2010
2. Gain control in the House and Senate
3. Vote Obama out in 2012
4. Amend any Obamacare and Cap and Trade legislation if it passes.
5. Find a way to impeach this SOB.
6. Continue to investigage and indict Charles Rangel, Chris Dodd and others and put them in jail.
7. Push for Eric Holder's resignation over Gitmo
End of story for now.

BHO feels at home in COMMUNIST China. This guy is doing the work that Lenin, Stalin, and Mau couldn't. Destroy America.

Maybe the BOwad needs to give a repeated speech on how "our image is improving abroad"! He has now offended just about every seeming ally we have ever had, and starting to make even "rogue nations" look poltitically affluent in their protocols!

Americans are fed up! Having a loud mouth or a popular link for everyone to follow is not a big enough weapon when we are going up against President Obama and his corrupt administration.
Over one hundred thousand people marched in Washington and was ignored!
America voicing are frustrations at voting booths that are corrupt with the manipulation of such organizations like ACORN. Are ignored as well.
This Out of control sitting President, adminastration, and government agenda has left the American people no civil choice!
