President Obama pledged $7 billion in aid to Africa and Then Warned Africans to be Wary of Exploitation by Other Countries, Including the United States

 

What the hell is wrong with this president, Why does he hate the United States so much?

During President Barack Obama $100 million trip to Africa, Barack Obama pledged $7 billion in aid Sunday to provide electricity to sub-Saharan Africa. Then Obama warned Africans to be wary of exploitation by other countries, including the United States. Of course he did. Obama is the president of the United States, right? His job is to do things in the best interest of the United States, right? Just checking. Take a good look at all of the exploitation of the continent of Africa over the years,

The United States will extend a hand of friendship but don’t trust us

President Obama pledged $7 billion in aid Sunday to provide electricity to sub-Saharan Africa, as he warned Africans to be wary of exploitation by other countries, including the United States.

“I’m calling for America to up our game when it comes to Africa,” Mr. Obama said in a speech at the University of Cape Town in South Africa, midway through his week long tour of the continent. “We want to unleash the power of entrepreneurship and markets to create opportunity here in Africa.”

Funds from the electricity initiative, dubbed Power Africa, will be distributed over the next five years to six countries — Ethiopia, Ghana, Kenya, Liberia, Nigeria and Tanzania. Mr. Obama said the U.S. wants to help Africa without interfering, as colonial powers did in the past.

“You will always find the extended hand of a friend in the United States of America,” he said.

But on his three-nation tour, the president also has been warning Africans not to automatically trust foreign powers offering help, including the U.S.

Maybe Barack Obama should have warned Americans to be wary of the Obama administration and don’t trust them? And what even might be even more comical is that Obama was giving Africa advice on jobs. REALLY? This president has some set. You mean when Obama gave away tax payer $’s to “green” energy boondoggles he cared whether the jobs would be in the United States and would benefit America? You mean like the jobs that went to China?

“When we look at what other countries are doing in Africa, I think our only advice is make sure it’s a good deal for Africa,” Mr. Obama told reporters in Johannesburg. “If somebody says they want to come build something here, are they hiring African workers? If somebody says that they want to help you develop your natural resources, how much of the money is staying in Africa? … Don’t just assume that folks come here and they’re automatically benefiting Africans. And that includes the United States. Ask questions in terms of what we do.”

      Barry is a communist through and through. He hates America as he has from the time he was a child.

      His mother (maybe) and her family were communists too. With that background, he will give away every dime of our money he gets in his grubby hands.

      He considers those that don’t agree with him as enemies and will punish them when he has an opportunity. His administration has become the most ugly that ever existed in the history of the USA.

      By the time this man is done, there won’t BE enough money for food stamps and subsidized housing, let alone Unaffordable Health Care.

      No more free condoms and no more free abortions.

      I wonder if the idiotic liberal sycophants have considered this?

      Organizing for a worldwide dependent community via
      buying dependency with the wealth of those who
      are soon to become dependent themselves. Money is great for
      buying votes, buying allegiance, buying subservience,
      insuring political invincibility, and a host of other nefarious
      crimes unbecoming to the real Government of the
      United States of America.

      What a great President you go to South Africa and you turn this whole trip around and make it all about yourself while the people in South Africa are grieving over Nelson Mandela. How thick can one be does this MAN have any integrity at all. The reason South Africa does not have sufficient power in their country is because they have the same leadership that we have , they abuse their privileges. I just have one thing to say…….
      ONE BIG ASS MISTAKE AMERICA!!!!!!!!!

      I will repost

      I don’t agree with everything Allen West proposes but his quote was awesome

      “Obama said he would fundamentally transform America. The time draws near to teach this usurper and charlatan the lesson our forefathers taught King George III. We will not be ruled by arrogance and edict.”

      Barry Soetoro was not born in America….he’s a fraud….!!!!! Ask his grandmother, she said he was born in Kenya and she was at the hospital when he arrived ….the woman had no reason to lie, she told the truth!!!!!

      At the time nitwit was born you did have to be born in a hospital in Hawaii, all you had to do was write in saying there was a birth. His mother and her mother both send letters, that’s why there were two different hospitals saying they had a certificate of birth, which doesn’t mean a thing proof wise.

      Stanley Durham Obama’s mother married Soetoro in Indonesia and Barack Hussein Obama became Barry Soetoro because he was adopted by his stepfather, Soetoro, you cannot have dual citizenship, so his citizenship was longer in the US. So, he just illegally changed his name back again to Obama.. Many, many articles out there stating this to be true. He spent several $100,000 dollars to seal these records and documents…..We Know Why!!!

      A wretched, evil monster!!!!!Destroying our country!!!!! Impeachment, treason!!!!! Not worthy of stepping one foot on our soil!!!!!

      Pledging $5 billion dollars to Africa for electricity. We have people here in America that no longer can afford electricity, air-conditioning, heat, water, healthcare, prescriptions, food and much more. His allegiance is certainly not here with us.

      Exploited? Seems to me the only people being exploited are the American taxpayers who are footing the bill.

      Who the hell is he to force the American people to have to work off $7 billion of taxes to Africa. Obama needs to stop and think every penny of money he so freely hands out to other countries including terrorist groups that are our enemies we have to slave those hand out in our hard work that the government takes the taxes from. Well we no longer want to be pimped out by Obama’s generously. It is time we start protecting our children the future slaves of a corrupt U.S. government. Congress needs to reign him in, we are broke, our dollar is becoming worthless because of the debt Obama continues to spend , doesn’t this guy get it, when the U.S. is broke, you don’t go to Africa on vacation and spend 7 billion dollars to make yourself look good. And then to top it off tell the people of Africa that the U.S may take advantage of you. What country is Obama from because he certainly takes no pride in ours.
