In a speech given by Prime Minister B. Netanyahu, outlining the dangers of an nuclear Iran, he also honored a Nobel prize winner, a man who survived the Holocaust and gave rise to the words, "Never again!" Obama was conspicuously absent.

Why should he let such inconsequential issues keep him from playing golf? </sarc>

Bibi made the president look like the petulant child he is.

And the democrat party look like a gang of dogmatic college leftists.

It was good to watch the democrats wilt in the face of unfiltered truth FOR A CHANGE. Its been a long time.

What makes you think he was invited? The president cannot go on the floor of the House or the Senate without an invitation.

He was probably a Jewish survivor. Had he been gay, Bammy would have been there in a NY minuet (similar to a NY minute, but must wear a pink tutu).

A Ravens fan wouldn’t bother with a ceremony honoring the Redskins. Why would Obama bother with a ceremony honoring a Jewish survivor of the Holocaust?

Obama’s Iranian pals say the Holocaust never happened.

Obama made it clear from the beginning that he had no interest in hearing Netanyahu speak. Besides, it's not a common practice to invite enemies to the table with friends!

Netanyahu giving a very sound speech and getting standing o’s from both sides of the aisle. The boycotters look like complete idiots

Indeed. He was probably thinking, “With such an efficient regime how could they have missed this one? darn it.”

This will all boil down to, “who do you find more truthful” , Obama or Bibi?

Any dodge from that simple premise destroys any argument for a nuclear armed Iran, be it next month, next decade, or next century.

..he wasn’t there because his puppet master Putin and 300 or 400 hundred Imams told him not to be there.

I heard a good one a couple of years back from a Gaza official. “There was a holocaust in World War II but it was not a Jewish holocaust. It was a holocaust of Palestinian babies being shoved in ovens by the Jews. That was the real holocaust!”

And Obama loves them....

Obama’s roots are certainly a lot closer to muslim than Jewish.

How did a woman in the USA in the late 50’s and 60’s end up married to not one but two muslim men? The probability of that is unbelieveably low.

Although I don’t believe she was ever married to Barack Hussein Obama, Sr. Sr. was married to a woman in Africa at the time so her marriage to him would have been voided.
