Obama WTF?

Big Business & Arms Deals, Not Poverty, Top Obama’s Agenda in India

President Obama rounded off his 3-day visit to India today by addressing a special joint session of both houses of India’s Parliament. Accompanied by some 250 business executives, the President’s visit to India is part of a 10-day tour of Asia to boost U.S. exports.
Meanwhile a number of groups are protesting Obama’s visit to India, including some Left political parties, survivors of the 1984 deadly Bhopal disaster, and the families of cotton farmers who committed suicide, partly as a result of U.S. agricultural subsidies.
