Snapshots of Obama in Saudi Arabia
Barack Hussein Obama is among friends in Saudi Arabia. In this photo, Obama receives a modest gift from Saudi King Abdullah bin Abdul Aziz al-Saud during a bilateral meeting at the king’s ranch in al-Janadriya in the outskirts of Riyadh today.
This is the same Saudi King who Obama bowed deeply to during their last meeting in Great Britain back in April.
It is against military protocol for the president of the United States to bow down to another world leader. Unless that world leader’s money and power helped put him in the White House. Then that’s different.
Oops, it appears I spoke too soon… what’s this?

I’ll have to wait. It’s blocked at the gig.
**** prints straight up lies. I doubt Ciara is broke, will be touring with Jay Z and Britney. She probably got more money than Rihanna, who does nothing but walk in and out of stores all day
If her car got repossed the atl based bloggers would get the story first and not fakeout
@15
they loyal to heara they wont post the truth on her broke ass she probabl spent her advance money on the gas to fill it up, poor ciara(literally)
I feel ya Shauny…my plantation overseers blocked it here too…well the pictures anyway, and that’s all I used to go there for. =-(
LMAO at last pic? seriously sandra thats supposed to be obama…further what do you have against saudi and other muslim countries? cant we be civil, or should we bomb first and ask questions later? lets just be like N Korea they are pretty by themselves
My job JUST blocked **** this week what gives?!? oh well
M T O
Bush bowed deeply and received a smaller chain when he visited the King in Saudi Arabia a few years ago.
@KC …a smaller chain…that’s sounds like he was being put on G-Unit or something HAHAHAH
LOL @ She probably got more money than Rihanna, who does nothing but walk in and out of stores all day
melinla LMAO!!!
LOL Have a good night all!
Her car did not get repoed M T O is always lying and rihanna has money as well she did work years b4 the incident jumped off
I just don’t get it Sandra…..nothing takes all THIS its like idolatry or something…definition of this post - redundant.
I would rather you post a story on JESUS, at least he deserves the praise.
If you ain careful u’ll be bowing soon.

We’ll all be bowing soon enough. Watch.
Jews and Christians far outnumber Muslims in this country, yet Obama says it’s a Muslim country. Lol. I can’t stop laughing. Let me go see what Bill O’Reilly has to say about this mess!
@ Krysi J.
Nodding, my head up and dowm.. Um hum. Nodding somemore.
@ Sandra even if that is true, about all of us bowing down soon. Do not act like all of this just got started once he became President. This has been in the works for many years. “If” this is true Obama is just another puppet in the grand scheme of things. People have been talking about a NWO since forever. Rockafella and all his yt boys had that/this in the works for years. “If” this is true why so much anger for Barack. If you want to speak out on this matter. Can we please start getting some post exposing all the YT people with their hand up his arse doing things that’s got you so worked up?
WOW!
OFF TOPIC:
Sandra tonight is the season finale of “Make Me A Supermodel”. Go Sandhurst.

I know. 10 pm tonight. Too bad Sandhurst will lose because Bravo network’s sorry asses won’t let him win.
Al-Hamdu Lillah
I am still MAD at BRAVO over not letting any black folks who were da BOMB I might add win project runway!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh and Part II of this Obama special is just as FAB as part I. Love the 1st lady!
DAISY! Are you watching So You Think You Can Dance. They cut Natalie, Katee’s friend. They didn’t even let her dance for her life. I am pissed! I don’t like anyone they have left but a few of them. Uggghhh
Shauny I am PISSED! They are riding Brandon HARD as well! I am ticked they cut Natalie I could have thrown my shoe at the TV!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 UGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Oh and the Asian guy that went 1st that they love does NOT move me. He does not dance with any emotion to me and lacks pizazz! They always got on Danny for not dancing with emtion. I LOVE LOVE LOVE me some Mia. I would love to dance to one of her pieces!
I have a question and I am not being sarcastic. Is the church that the Obama’s attended for over 20 years a Muslim church/place of worship/come as you are to all? Do Muslims have their own place of worship or are they allowed to blend in with other congregations?
I love Mia’s choreography BUT as the seasons go by I like her less and less. She is a cruel biotch. She seems like a really mean and hurtful crow. I was over on the Fox boards and they are seeing the same thing with her.
I LOVE Tyce, his was TOO funny last week. They better let Brandon be in their top 20. Love the brothers too. There are no girls sticking out to me this year. Natalie was Bianca were the only ones and they both were cut.
TRAVIS and Danny 2 of my fav dancers EVER on the show.
That would be a pic of me in my earlier days, but not the one I cropped. LOL. Maybe mine is not ready yet.
I have a question. Why does 3 different people have the same avatar? I guess I’ll find out tomorrow.

That’s the default pic replacing the big ‘S’.
Ahhh, Thanks Sandra,
So you letting stay on with the default baby.
Why it gotta be a white baby though….I kid, I kid
Shauny babe you left out Will and I hate the hip hop couple they are wack. Mia is a beast but I still love her.I like the asian latin dancer this season.
Ohhh, I see Melo now for my pic. I wonder why my picture changed after 10pm. HEEYYYY MELO!
Daisy, you still here too…lol I can’t sleep. Yeah, I forgot about Will…wow him and Katee’s Peau De whatever made me cry last year. Yes, love my Will too.
Sandra I was trying to find a link to send you. Did you see the video of the Oklahoma Trooper pulling over the ambulance then choking the EMT while they had someone in the back? Crazy!
Sandra were you trying to keep some of us in the room who don’t know what the heck a gravitar is and whined and complained and you created one for us? I did pick a pic of my babies. I don’t see it yet. I guess it’s ok. I am still able to comment for now.
Asalam Malakim!!!
Testing
Morning Fam! I still see the BIG S I dont see the new logo Sandra picked/created.
Shuany- I was up working on homework I have a presentation this evening. I will finish tweaking it today at work on my lunch break. I LOVE me some Will that body was on point I dont care if he was on the other team or not..lol I loved Katee as well. They did her friend DIRTY last night! I loved Danny as well and felt his pain from his childhood.
I will always say this…
If bowing to a Saudi King means that we don’t have planes and bombs being planted on American soil…BOW ON!!!
I’m so proud of the folks in here pointing out the fact that other American Presidents have also bowed…and I’m proud of the speech Obama made also…
BTW…I DO have issues with Obama…
We need a SINGLE payer healthcare system (see todays story saying that medical bills are the underlying reason for 60% of bankruptcies this year)…
We need to get out of the wars in the middle east!!! America needs to understand that those planes went into those buildings hijacked by men who had box cutters not bombs and missles…we don’t need the thousands of troops in the middle east to handle this problem…we need Special Ops forces from various countries to handle that business…we need to build our middle-eastern intelligence bureau back up to infiltrate (just like in the movies) to handle our business…the only thing we’re doing now is feeding the military complex and killing innocent people…I’d rather use that money to build schools, hospitals, sewage systems and roads over there….THAT’S HOW WE STOP THE MAYHEM IN THE MIDDLE EAST!!! If we had done that BACK in the 80s when the Afghans did our dirty work against Russia…9/11 wouldn’t have happened…
And we need to stop mucking around with the banks and deal with the people DIRECTLY!!!
HOWEVER!!! I do understand the Rome wasn’t built in a day…and progress takes time (and a Congress that can fight a filibuster and dosen’t contain Democrats in name only)…

That’s because the big ‘S’ is still in your cache. Everyone else can see the default pic. You can go into your Internet settings and set your computer to clear the cache every time you turn your computer off at night.
NOTHING NEW FOR A NEW DAY?
Sandra I did that and I still see the big S after clearing my cache. It did work though because I now see Krysi/Shauny new pics and I see my baby IDRIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
