interview are you upset? President Barack Obama chose an Arabic satellite TV network for his first formal television interview as president, part of a concerted effort to repair relations with the Muslim world that were damaged under the previous administration.
It sent a clear and important message to the Muslim world. That was absolutely the right thing to do, and represents I hope a first step in repairing the wreckage of the Bush legacy.
I think it was a great thing to do. The President is our representative to the world. Do we want other countries to think we are the hateful, money hungry vampires that Bush has portrayed us to be? I don't... we don't have to be "friends" with them but we need to find a middle ground that everyone can agree and prosper from. Remember about getting more flies with honey........
I imagine that he believes catering to the Muslim world is more important than taking care of business at home. Everything he is doing (including this ridiculous 'stimulus package') will damage America beyond repair, while he kisses foreigners' butts.

Most Americans do not hate Muslims or Arabs.
Most Americans just want to live their own lives, as do most Muslims and Arabs.
This is what he wanted to convey.
And I think he did a good job of it.
So what if foxnoise didn't get the first interview?
They've had plenty before, and they will have plenty in the future.

No. Bush had several presidential interviews with Al-Arabiya. Is it the timing that you're questioning or the choice of station? Either way it was a good move on President Obama's part.
