Doug Ross caught this report from the Copenhagen meetings. It was reported in the Indian news but our state run media was too busy brown-nosing the president and missed it.
The Indian Prime Minister lectured Obama on his obligations.
When Obama entered the room, there was no chair for him. Obama himself was reported as saying that there weren’t any seats…
…At the “accidental” five- nation meeting, Prime Minister Singh told Obama that international review of voluntary mitigation action was unacceptable as he was answerable to Parliament. Any international review of India’s voluntary mitigation actions would go against public opinion, he said.
Wen also had similar views, while Lula voiced concerns over imposition of trade barriers on developing countries under the garb of environment protection.
How sad. The Indians and even the Chinese leaders know that their first responsibility is to their own country. For some odd reason they don’t want to destroy their country’s economies, something that is completely foreign to Barack Obama.

The other night, Bill O’Reilly said something to the effect Obama is (of course) smarter than Bush. Yeah…Right…Sure he is. Bush always knew who his constituency was, and always had our country’s best interests in mind. Obama – not so much. To me, it’s not entirely clear whose interests Obama has at heart.
Anonymous commented:
Maybe we should get one of those “Parliaments” that Obama would be answerable to.

O-Bow-Ma was too busy bowing to every official in Hopenchangen and missed the dress-down as well.

Obama used Singh as decorative cover for his blow-out party for his Chicago and Media syncophants.
Singh went to urge a stay the course in AFghanistan and “Why are you getting all cozy with the Chinese, our enemies?”
But what did Singh get from Obama? Pull-out Afghanistan and kiss up to the Chinese at India’s expense. But the media was all a gush at Obama saying NAMASTE to Singh and the Indian contingent. WHoopeee! “Hi.”
How many people noticed that Singh just signed a nuclear trade agreement with RUSSIA?
Bush had a superb alliance negotiated with the Indians and the Democrats weren’t interested.
The media was all pious in its “sustainable magnolia branches” and “Michelle’s White House organic garden” but not a word,comma or exclamation point to the importance of the “sustainability of U.S. ALLIANCES.”
Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh is not a stupid man, but the Chicago crowd is too full of themselves to “get” it.

A while back Obama said there was “no special relationship” with England, that they where just 1 out of the 150 countries the US has relations with.
Now the Chinese and the even the Indians (both second world countries with 1st world money) don’t even have a chair ready for Obama. The US has definitely lost respect in the world, now we are just like England.
Even though everyone hated President Bush, everyone always had a chair ready for him in the center of the table.

jonyjoe101,
With all the bowing little barry has been doing, maybe they expected him to be part of the wait staff.

O’Reilly has been saying a lot in support of Obummer lately. I think he is playing too far to the left for me. Or maybe… just another Narcissist.
Blacque Jacques Shellacque commented:
Damn, that’s pretty bad when one media outlet says a fellow media organization is brown-nosing. The only thing that makes it worse is because it’s the truth.
Ginger commented:
O’Reilly is two faced! I refuse to watch him any more.

Good to see someone who understands the constitution of his country.
Too bad it’s the Prime Minister of India.
