  1. Paid a courtesy call? Why is it so easy for these caucasians to meet our heads of state?

    These reptilians think they are boss?

    And why is it in the news anyway?

    GB cannot go the US and pay a courtesy call on their President, it could never happen even though he is a head of state.

    Stop the ignorance slavery is no more mentally or otherwise.
