“Killing two birds with one stone”

*The United Nations General Assembly will hold a meeting next week in New York City and it is my opinion foes of our President will play it to the hilt doing outright childish things to embarrass him.

In my opinion, efforts to embarrass Pres. Obama by being rude to his guest, Pres. Mahmoud Ahmadinejad of Iran and Muammar al-Gaddafi of Libya is a case in point. Foes of the President would hope to have him fall out of favor with the two leaders so were he, Pres. Obama, to visit Iran or Libya, their subjects would treat him the same way.

As a citizen, I note with embarrassment how Pres. Al-Gadaffi has been shun in New Jersey where he wanted to stay during his visit to the U.N. and how hotel reservations for Pres. Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and his party were suddenly cancelled and no one, save foes of the President, will utter a mumblin’ word!
An added bonus would be for the foes to fan “fires of ill will” amongst the Presidents so when Pres. Obama finally gets around to addressing the Palestinian/Israeli conflict, they will have fuel to drive news cycles. I believe there is a method to this mean-spirited and childish behavior. I do not understand where friends and foes are to go, save the U.N. to talk and iron out differences. If not at the U.N., where, pray tell? Are they simply not to talk to each other at all, having some outside entity frame and manipulate the discussions?

I am mindful slave owners would not let us slaves gather for justifiable fears of their own.

-Now hear me good, boy, don’t you ever let BB and that woman Hester who he calls his wife talk to none of the other slaves without you being there. You hear me, boy?
-Oh, Yes suh, I hears you mighty good!

*Clinton outlines sweeping agenda for U.N. conference
Excerpt:
"Our agenda is ambitious," she told an audience at the Brookings Institution about the highly anticipated U.N. session, saying it stems from President Obama's belief the United Nations is "a critical, central institution."
And
Obama will be the first U.S. president to head a meeting of the council. His high-profile U.N. engagement marks a sharp shift in emphasis from the Bush administration, which generally placed a lower priority on the need to act through international institutions.
And
Regarding the quest for a comprehensive Middle East peace, Clinton said it is fitting that next week's U.N. gathering is happening at the end of the Muslim holy month of Ramadan and amid the Jewish high holidays of Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur.
The administration is "very patient and very determined" to bring Palestinians and Israelis to the bargaining table, she said. But ultimately, she noted, the decision to reach an agreement is not in U.S. hands.

P.S. I amuse myself identifying the birds and the stone in my post and ponder how the above article would infuriate foes of the President. (Smile)
