Another Jew who gets under Obama's skin
In May, we saw how Prime Minister Netanyahu got under President Obama's skin. In the budget negotiations, we saw another Jew do the same: Republican House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (Va).I won't go into this too deeply, because it's off topic for this blog, but I'm sure Prime Minister Netanyahu would agree with this assessment (Hat Tip: Manhattan Dan):
Like Mr. Cantor, President Obama is also a man of deep and strong convictions, and perhaps that's why they seem to dislike each other so much. Call it, to adapt Freud, the narcissism of big differences. Mr. Cantor cautions that he isn't a "psychoanalyst"—before politics, he was a real-estate lawyer and small businessman—but he says, "It's almost as if someone cannot have another opinion that is different from his. He becomes visibly agitated. . . . He does not like to be challenged on policy grounds."Obama sounds like someone I know (a certain individual) in a position of authority here. The 2012 campaign debates should be fun.
