Five Republican senators sent the president a letter Friday labeling Vietnam “one of the most repressive regimes in the world”

Where's Hanoi Jane and her liberal activist friends now??? This is the same regime they promoted as liberators bent on unifying the country. Mission Accomplished. I suppose it's more fashionable and politically correct to be posing for selfies with the Kardashians rather than posing with a North Vietnamese anti-aircraft gun. The hypocrisy of limousine liberals knows no bounds.

He’s already made a historic trip to Cuba and visited Saudi Arabia, Germany and Britain.

Yeah, where they snubbed him by sending low ranking officials to greet him upon his reception. Nice gesture huh.

Wonder how he mullahs would dis him if went to Tehran.Perhaps some one should throw a shoe at him too.

Every clauses written on paper will be rubbish once if Donald Trump taken power next year. So dont take his trip seriously. By the way , an 'Unapologetic' attitude is a very resentful approach to some Asian countries people.

And here we go again for another round of apologies. I'm still waiting for him to issue an apology for even being an American.

And when was the first one? I mean a real one, not in your fantasy world.

"Obama will make a big push for the 12-nation trans-Pacific trade agreement"

I hear this trade agreement really sucks, which might have somethiing to do with the fact that it's stalled in Congress.

So it looks like the non-partisan independents have condemned Obama before his plane has even landed.

urging Obama to press Vietnamese leaders to do more to respect freedom of religion and expression and other human rights.

Then they continued their crusade to ban basic good and services to homosexuals, defunded more voter registration drives, and nominated a guy who wants US soldiers to kill terrorist family members.

@kabukideath, that is some dated wartime resentment, but here in the 21st century Vietnam is sending an envoy to the G7 summit in Japan. Vietnamese people seem to like the USA these days, surveys say.

Bush seemed to pop in on Iraq regularly, and Iraq seems as least as oppressive as Vietnam. Oh, but some Republican senators wrote a letter? Is McCain one of the 5?

Oh, please, the left do it as well. It's just we kind of know where Obama's thought process is at and we can kind of surmise as to how he's going to handle this.

Another fictitious liberal exaggerated lie.

So you dismiss real events and focus your own comments on "I know what he's thinking." What would you like me to do with that?
