Obama Welcomes Thieving African Dictator to White House…

Birds of a feather. Disgraceful.

(ABC News) — The family that has ruled the African nation of Gabon for decades has been accused of taking bribes, stealing hundreds of millions of dollars, and presiding over a system rife with corruption, but that hasn’t stopped President Obama from inviting President Ali Bongo of Gabon to the White House Thursday.

White House press secretary Jay Carney conceded to ABC News Wednesday that President Bongo has a “less than sterling” record, but said that it was “very important” for President Obama to grant Bongo the coveted Oval Office meeting anyway.

“First of all, the president of Gabon is making reform efforts, which we support,” said Carney. “Secondly . . . Gabon has been an important partner in some of the issues that are very important to American national security.”

Jack Blum, a United Nations consultant and expert on offshore banking, said that the invitation sends a disturbing message. Blum estimates that in years past the Bongo family and its cronies have “siphon[ed] off 25 percent of the gross domestic product of the country. And it’s made them incredibly rich.”

“There’s absolutely no shame,” said Blum. “I would say that the people who are running the country are guilty of grand theft nation.”

    To be fair, that’s pretty much standard operating procedure for most African leaders.

    Someone in a former post mentioned that Obama was up to something in Central Africa…………..and I agreed. Well, here’s another piece of the puzzle.

    What the hell is the Illustrious One up to………..?

    Barack and Bongo.

    Old Bongo teaching the young dog some new tricks. I wonder if they have broken ground on the Family Planning center in Bongo land.

    Could the name “Ali” be a clue to Obysmal’s cosying?? Bongo’s been in since 1968 but not to worry, Gabon is mineral rich!

    Now here’s what I was talking about the other day. Someone else said this before – you don’t see the heads of state you used to see in and out of the White House all the time. First of all, there aren’t many heads of state in and out of the White House and second of all, the ones that come are all dictators, thugs, and enemies.

    In other words, whatever happens, DONT LIE. (I’m talking to Barack Obama here)

    Ali was a Mau-Mau who played the tom-toms before he learned to play the bongos. Obama is serving up kosher Weiner(s) for the main course.

    More chimps in the White House, soiling the carpets. Michelle has decided to hang up an old car tire to be used as a swing by her husbands’ primate guests.

    Note to the new First Couple in January 2013- burn all the linen, bedsheets, pillow cases and towels. Who knows who used them last.

    “At a special presentation ceremony in the Rose Garden, President Ali Bongo of Gabon was presented by Hitlery Clintoon with an old Ford tire and a rope to be used as a swing when he returns to his African nation on board the return voyage of the next slave ship leaving New York harbor and returning to the Ivory Coast.

    Bon Voyage!”

    The only difference between him and Obama is that is he is all black. Obama is stealing this country every minute he is in office.

    The Obamas and the Gabons had a lunch of bananas and coconuts while posing naked for photograpghers on Monkey Island in the Bronx Zoo prior to the Gabons departure.

    Guys, you need to chill. You know that Reagan often had African dictators such as Mobutu Sese Seko visit the White House? Did it ever occur to you that our Presidents had to meet with unsavoury thugs and dictators on a daily basis? How many dictators, sheikhs, and despots do you think W. invited? It is inevitable that we have to deal with these people in the line of diplomacy and foreign affairs. Ever heard of that country that we owe trillions in debt to, you know, the one with the largest population and a government which kills its own people? Weaselzippers, your knee jerk reaction reminds me a lot of the huffington post.

    We know it happens. We just don’t happen to like it.
