Israel??? Obama is betraying America!

He’s using his personal popularity to quickly ram through his massive socialist agenda before the majority of Americans wake up and realize that he reconstructed their country into a look-alike of Belgium. Cap & Trade, bailouts benefiting the UAW, useless stimulus, multi-trillion-dollar deficits, fighting the weather (global warming), nationalized health-care (Canadians will have nowhere to go when they need top-quality care quickly), pandering to intolerant Muslims (including HAMAS) and abandoning Israel.

If the Iran riots show any lesson to Americans, it’s that our President doesn’t know anything about how the world works. The Mullahs are laughing at Obama and how he was afraid to “meddle” and show support for FREE elections because he wants to be able to talk to the Iranian government. Obama is way out of his league and everyone (especially Iran) but American liberals and Jews knows it.

The guy is insane, no, not insane but mendacious. And let’s discuss the cynicism of Obama’s sycophantic supporters in Congress. Barack Obama is aided and abetted by all the little Dem mice who are dancing to his tune because they fear him. They fear him because he’s popular and they don’t want to risk missing a ride on Obama’s coattails to reelection in 2010. The truth is that the majority of Dems who will be reelected will likely be the ones (some Blue-Dogs) who will have voted against Obama’s Grand Project.

All polls show Obama with personal approval down 10 points to the high 50’s. But the same polls show approval for his policies below 50 and falling, with his personal approval trending likewise. Bush’s approval was in the low 30’s at the end and he was paralyzed. I am certainly gleeful to see Obama’s approval tanking. He can’t fail fast enough because his failure will be benificial to America – and to Israel who Obama sees as an obstacle to his reconcilliation with the Muslim world.

The sooner Obama fails, the sooner America – and the world – recovers.
