Obama made some great points here. Wonder what happened?
Typical liberal spin. They NEVER admit when they are wrong
unless it's
in a deposition and that's debatable.
Even Anderson on 360 tonight sounded a little annoyed at Obama
really
taking a lot of time to saying nothing at all today.
What he said was he is selling out Israel.

He is reacting to the new reality what is coming out of all the Arab
"freedom". We are running out of friends there. the Saudis and
Pakistanis are negotiating with China now, looking for a better
partner.
The Palestinians are saying that they are going to start non-violent
protests like the Egyptians and Libyans used and make the Israelis
shoot them to make them stop. They are seeing that may actually be
more effective than rocks or even rockets.
The real question is if they can hold Hamas back.

Aipac has put a target on Obama's back tho and that may actually be
the best chance of a GOP victory.


A GOP victory in 2012? Well, I guess anything is possible. I would
enjoy
seeing Michele Bachmann on the ticket.


I expect that in the end we will see the typical GOP white guy with a
solid neocon pedigree who will promise to keep the wars going on in
the middle east, all the while, complaining about runaway government
spending and the soaring price of oil.

I still would not be surprised if Obama got a primary challenge.

In politics, 18 months is an eternity and a lot can happen.


Sound like Obama, even though you say GOP.

Money will decide the ponies you get to choose from. Sad part about
party politics is that it allows few people to pick who you can vote
for, a ruse. Quasi democracy at best.

In Obama's case, he leaned on the uninformed for his votes. When the
free cars and mortgage payments didn't happen he lost them.


We will see, I always wondered how Hank Johnson ever got elected.
