There's another story making the rounds this morning about Obama's having in it personally for Israel.
John Podhoretz captures it in his conclusion:
"This is meaningful. It suggests not merely that Obama differs with Israel on matters of policy but also that he takes these differences personally. And that, in turn, demonstrates there is an animus at work here, a predisposition to think badly of Israel—to view the Jewish state at best as an impediment to the good working order of a fairer world and at worst as a sower of discord. This is a bitter truth, but it is a truth, no matter how many Jews Obama knows or likes or employs, no matter how many Potemkin Passover seders he stages in the people’s house in which he is a temporary resident and in which he chose to treat a friend he ought to cherish instead like an enemy he cannot abide."

I am an Orthodox Jew - some would even call me 'ultra-Orthodox.' Born in Boston, I was a corporate and securities attorney in New York City for seven years before making aliya to Israel in 1991 (I don't look it but I really am that old :-). I have been happily married to the same woman for thirty-five years, and we have eight children (bli ayin hara) ranging in age from 13 to 33 years and nine grandchildren. Four of our children are married! Before I started blogging I was a heavy contributor on a number of email lists and ran an email list called the Matzav from 2000-2004.

You got be kidding me! And this guy's Secretary Of State has the chutzpah to say Netanyahu is still not being sincere enough about peace!
Go figure.
when i a kid there was a kid's tape by Shmuel Kunder called "the magical yermulka of yomtov lipa"
I'm sure your kids will remember it
in it there was a caracter just like Obamba who sang one song about how wonderful he was
"I am Simcha Shtark
the best kid in the park.
I make all the rules
for the kids in school
they know I am the boss
'cos I am so smart
I know all the things we learnt by heart
...
and did I ever tell you that I'm also humble
...
'cos of my modesty its hard for me to say this
but what can I do about it if I am the greatest"
Looks like Obamba is chanelling Simcha
Ashan,
Well, you're definitely younger than I am because I believe Shmuel Kunder is my age....
But my kids have a book called Arrogant Ari that Obama could also be emulating.
/Still waiting for him to emulate the part where Arrogant Ari learns not to be a big shot
tried to watch video, seriously cannot look at that face for more than 2 seconds without feeling nauseous.
The obamanation is a shell, a puppet, a lie, like one of those pods from the original "Aliens" film.
I was going to mention "Arrogant Ari" but I see that Carl beat me to it.
I wonder if Ehud Olmert in childhood looked like the kid in "Eli and the Little White Lie." P-O-O-F-!
