Obama: Israeli Interference Unprecedented

Barack Obama is fighting to get his half-baked deal with Iran approved by the US Congress. The fix is generally in and it will pass while giving some members cover. Chuck Schumer is opposed (he is up to lead Democrats when Reid retires) but that is OK because other Democrats will rescue the deal. It gets passed, is veto proof and folks like Schumer can tell low information voters he was against it.

[note]It will pass in the sense that the Congress will vote it down and Obama will veto it. Congress will not have enough votes to override the veto which is what Democrats are looking to ensure right now. It gives Schumer cover but gets Obama what he wants.[/note]

Israel is involved in the lobby efforts to nix the entire thing and Obama says this kind of involvement is unprecedented. I am unsure if he means Israeli involvement is unprecedented for Israelis or if he means unprecedented in general. In other words, is he saying it is unprecedented for Israel to do this by standards of what it has done in the past or is it unprecedented in that no country is ever this involved?

In any event, why is Obama so concerned about it? Why is he worried that the Israelis are expressing their concern and trying to get members of Congress to stop a bad deal?

Obama was not concerned when he and his State Department were involved in the Israeli election so much so that they tried to influence the election.

This is the rub. If Obama means it is unprecedented in the history of Israel for it to be so involved then perhaps they finally have an issue to rally around.

But, if he means it is unprecedented for one country to involve itself so heavily in another country’s business then I think he is sadly mistaken.

One only need look at how involved Obama and his State Department were in the last Israeli election. They worked very hard to defeat Netanyahu.

I have to believe that Obama is referring to the latter since he discusses not being able to recall a similar episode of outside intervention.

So, like I wrote earlier, he should look at what he and the State Department did because that was a very good example of outside intervention.

I guess if Obama is working to intervene in another country it is OK but when that country turns around and does it Obama is not happy.

Don’t worry Barry the fix is in and you will get what you want.

I only wish that everyone who supports this would be held personally accountable should Iran develop and use nuclear weapons. It would be nice to see politicians held accountable for a change…

Then There Should Be No Negotiations With Iran

The Obama regime is negotiating on behalf of Iran in a move that will help that nation get nuclear weapons. They can call it what they want but John Kerry and Barack Obama do not like Israel and they want to strike a deal with Iran that helps that nation achieve nuclear weapons. He wants to strengthen Iran and weaken Israel which is why Obama released the information on Israel’s nuclear program.

[note]For those who lack basic comprehension skills, the information is from 1987 but was declassified a month ago.[/note]

I find it strange that barack Obama, a man who is against nuclear weapons and wants to get rid of them, is helping Iran achieve those weapons. Iran is unstable and run by a bunch of nuts who want to dominate the region and put an end to Israel.

That leads me to this.

The commander of the Basij militia of Iran’s Revolutionary Guards said that “erasing Israel off the map” is “nonnegotiable,” according to an Israel Radio report Tuesday. Times of Israel

There should be no doubt as to these people’s intentions. Obama recently said he took Bibi Netanyahu at his word regarding the two state solution but for some reason he will not take these nuts in Iran at their word.

These people have been saying for a long time that they want to wipe Israel off the map. This latest information not only affirms this policy but states it is NONNEGOTIABLE.

SInce this is the case there should be NO negotiations at all. The Obama regime should pull out of talks with Iran, sanction them and tell them if they enrich Uranium we will wipe THEM off the map. We absolutely should not throw our ally Israel under the bus.

Unfortunately, Obama is not a leader and he will do everything he can to help Iran.

Given the above statement and the fact that the regime has not broken off talks there must be a reason.

And that reason is that Obama hates Israel. He is an antisemite and he agrees with Iran as to what Israel’s fate should be.

I am embarrassed for our nation. It is embarrassing that we have a child running things and we have allowed this antisemite to piss all over our ally.

I am disappointed that Congress has failed to step up and stop all of this. I know, I know, they are telling us what they are going to do but they have spines of jello so they will cave.

I am also quite disappointed in American Jews who, by and large, continue to support Democrats when that party is full of antisemites who continually aid Israel’s enemies.

In his book Audacity of Hope Obama writes:

“I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in an ugly direction.”

The ugly direction is coming from the Muslims particularly those in Iran and Obama has been true to his word because he never indicated from which direction the wind had to come. He is standing with them and against Israel (among others).

Well I stand with Israel against those enemies, foreign and domestic, who would seek to destroy her.

Cave canem!

Another News Round Up

Looks like Obama is not so keen on following his rules about lobbyists:

Despite the job title, McLaughlin wasn’t a registered lobbyist. Still, ethics rules created by an Obama executive order prohibit McLaughlin from “participat[ing] in any particular matter involving specific parties that is directly and substantially related to” Google. But the e-mails show McLaughlin has been involved with formulating policy that directly affects Google, regularly trading e-mails with Google’s “evangelist,” and lobbyist.

~snip~

And only when I followed up with a question about the e-mails with lobbyist Davidson did Weiss admit “they did violate the President’s Ethics Pledge,” and note that McLaughlin had been reprimanded. [emphasis mine] Washington Examiner

Well so much for the no lobbyists lobbying for their special interests. How’s that transparency thing working out for ya?

Iran blinks after much bluster:

Iran will not be sending a blockade-busting ship to Gaza in defiance of Israeli warnings, an Iranian lawmaker said Saturday, citing Israeli “restrictions.” Yahoo News

Iran was going to send the blockade buster to help get “humanitarian” aid ships through. Perhaps the idea of being sunk by the Israeli Navy did not appeal to Iran. Imagine the humiliation if that happened.

Maybe the Islamic radicals don’t care who is leading our country:

As for the revolutionary Islamists–be they al-Qaida, Hamas, Hizballah, the Taliban, and the Muslim Brotherhoods–or the radical regimes–be they Iran, Syria, the de facto Islamic Republic of Gaza, or others–all the U.S. governments are definitely the same. Indeed, they make this point explicitly in their declarations and media every day.

To them, the American people are “all the same” and the American governments are “all the same.” The argument between liberals and conservatives on this point is irrelevant. They hate the United States because of its values and they also hate the United States because of its policies. Gloria Center

While liberals love to exclaim that George Bush made the world, particularly the world of Islam, hate us, the reality is they hated us long before Bush was president. They bombed the WTC the first time under Clinton, attacked the Cole and other targets under Clinton and planned 9/11 under him. They do not like us no matter who is elected to lead us and they will continue to attack us until they are defeated.

How is that citizen of the world plan working out?

Another broken Obama promise? Gitmo remains open.

Stymied by political opposition and focused on competing priorities, the Obama administration has sidelined efforts to close the Guantánamo prison, making it unlikely that President Obama will fulfill his promise to close it before his term ends in 2013.

~snip~
“The president can’t just wave a magic wand to say that Gitmo will be closed,” said a senior administration official, speaking on condition of anonymity to discuss internal thinking on a sensitive issue. The New York Times

Obama can’t wave a magic wand and make things happen but he sure acted like it when, with much fanfare, he signed the Executive Order to close it within one year of him taking office. That pen was his magic wand and he waved as if his deeming it so would make it happen.

This is what you get when you put someone with no leadership experience in charge.

Joe Biden Admits they can’t recover the jobs.

Vice President Joe Biden gave a stark assessment of the economy today, telling an audience of supporters, “there’s no possibility to restore 8 million jobs lost in the Great Recession.” CBS News

Biden goes on to do what has become the main theme of this regime, blame it all on Bush. That excuse is getting old. Hey Joe, the mess belongs to you and you and Obama got it because you convinced America you could fix things.

Now you admit that you can’t.

Is ACORN running the Census?

Two Census Bureau managers from a Brooklyn field office were fired after their bosses found they faked household surveys to meet deadlines, the Daily News learned.

Instead of pounding the pavement and knocking on doors, the corner-cutting people-counters mined the phone book and Internet to make up answers to questionnaires, regional director Tony Farthing said. NY Daily News

This census has been poorly run and has cost billions more than any previous census. Perhaps that is because the Obama regime is using numbers of census employees to artificially lower the unemployment rate. These people are counted as new jobs but will be gone in a few months.

The folks who did this should be prosecuted for falsifying a government record. This is what happens when a corrupt regime runs things.

Biden calls store manager a Smart ass. Custard’s last stand:

Joe Biden, VP of the Obama regime, was out getting a frozen custard (he thought he was getting ice cream) and when he asked how much he owed the manager said not to worry about it, “It’s on us.” Then the manager told Biden to lower our taxes and we will call it even. Biden told the man to say something nice instead of being a smart ass. I thought the request for lower taxes was saying something nice.

This is the disdain the regime has for the average guy on the street. If you think you are paying too much in taxes and express that thought you are being a smart ass. This is because the regime, with people like Biden who have NO business experience, think they know better than you. Shut up you serfs and quit being smart asses. We know what is best for you.

Extending an open hand to Iran:

CIA Director Leon Panetta says Iran probably has enough low-enriched uranium for two nuclear weapons, but that it likely would take two years to build the bombs.

Panetta also says he is doubtful that recent U.N. penalties will put an end to Iran’s nuclear ambitions. Yahoo News

It would seem as if the Obama doctrine of bowing to all the world leaders and extending an open hand to the bad people of the world has not paid off.

The Iranian leadership knows Obama is weak and they are pushing the limits. They have enough nuclear material for two bombs and will have those bombs in the near future (and probably sooner than the estimated two years).

How is that world experience working out for ya?

The Other Nuclear Talks

Barack Obama is in DC with the heads of other countries to discuss the need to reduce the nuclear arsenals that countries have and to make it harder for terrorist groups to obtain nuclear material. It has been reported that great progress has been made.

The progress in Iran, that is.

In what seems to be a recurring theme, Russia made an announcement that looks like it was timed to embarrass Obama. The nuclear reactor that Russia is building in Iran will be up and running by August. Not to worry though, we have been assured that the reactor is for peaceful purposes and we have no doubt that is the truth because the peaceful, sane, leader of Iran has told us so. If he were some kind of Holocaust denier who wanted Israel wiped off the map then we might have something to worry about.

Interestingly, there seems to be a great deal of concern that Iran might have other ideas on how to use the reactor and could — Wait for it–use it to produce nuclear weapons.

And to top it off, Syria has delivered long range missiles to Hezbollah. Hmm, long range missiles and nuclear material, I wonder what could happen if some nut put those two together…

Good thing the rational leader of Iran and the anti terrorist group Hezbollah are the ones in possession or things might get bad for places like Israel.

It is also fortunate that Obama had all these leaders here to tell them America would be reducing its number of nukes and got these folks to sign on that they would make it harder for terrorists to get their hands on nuclear material. Otherwise a country like Russia might build a nuclear reactor in a country that sponsors terrorism.

Thank God Obama is on the case.

Kind of makes me wonder though, why there was discussion about what Americans should expect in the event a nuke detonated here. As an aside, the 72 hours discussed here is standard for a federal response (like it was in Katrina, which was met). However, I am willing to bet (and I hope I never have to find out) that it will be much longer than 24-72 hours if a nuke detonates here.

But we have nothing to worry about. The Russians have told us that they will work hard to keep terrorists from getting nuclear material and I am sure they will get right on that right after they get paid for building terrorists a reactor to make their own nuclear material.

Looks like Israel will be making a surprise visit to Iran sometime around September.

Never surrender, never submit.

Extend An Open Hand, Get Your Wrist Slapped

Barack Obama said he would extend an open hand to Iranian President Ahmadinejad and would meet him without precondition. Looks like this is not working so well as Ahmadinejad slapped Obama on the wrist.

Obama is proposing eliminating our nuclear weapons and has changed our policy toward their use. Those weapons were used in anger on two occasions and they ended World War II. Since that time they have kept us safe.

Obama’s naive approach to the world has earned him little respect among those to whom he panders:

“Obama made these latest remarks because he is inexperienced and an amateur politician,” Ahmadinejad said on Iranian television. “American politicians are like cowboys. Whenever they have legal shortcomings, their hands go to their guns.” al Reuters

“Mr. Obama, you are a newcomer (to politics). Wait until your sweat dries and get some experience. Be careful not to read just any paper put in front of you or repeat any statement recommended,” Ahmadinejad said in the speech, aired live on state TV. Yahoo News

Obama is being taken to task by a tyrant who is not amenable to having an open hand extended to him. Perhaps now Obama will see the evil that Bush saw.

I doubt it.

Obama is only willing to fight for his political career and his radical agenda. The man who said if they bring a knife, we bring a gun is not willing to bring nukes if the others bring lesser weapons…

Ahmadinejad is against Obama and has insulted him.

Will the left now call him a racist? The left might have ignored Ahmadinejad’s rants against the Jews but they certainly cannot stand by and let him slap little Barry around.
