We know President Barack Obama is a tenacious fighter. He came into office like a souped-up Mike Tyson and felled all in his path with his relentless assault. Congress pushed through ObamaCare, TKO'd the auto industry and got the white towel from the banking system. With its mouth agape, the country watched silently as the powers of the president seemed to know no bounds.
But Obama has taken an embarrassing uppercut from Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that has jolted him, and he is not one to forget. He is out not only for revenge but for victory. And that includes the demise of Israel.

Is this guy trying to rewrite history? I was there. Urkel HAD TO get health care passed because he failed at EVERYTHING and needed at least ONE WIN. And that one was bittersweet and took his party down in the next election cycle.
I had to check the source to make sure this is not a satire site.
” With its mouth agape, the country watched silently as the powers of the president seemed to know no bounds. <<
There was no rewrite of history in my humble opinion. The above remark captures exactly how I thought, believe still, and certainly felt. Pelosi and Reid were unleashed on us by Obama, to serve as lead thugs/foils, and “mouth agape” was my exact response.
The main “success” of Obama was the audacious bypass of Congress, conversion of the Constitution and senate rules and the cram down that was astounding. His programs were actually secondary to the audacity of his successful, marxist performance. America was rolled.
Not really a tko he sucker punched and ran for his corner to let the rest of the tag team fight.
The whole reason he pulled out all the stops was because until Obamacare, every single thing he put his “weight” behind failed. Every single thing. And even obamacare crippled him in the end.
That is not someone who’s “power knows no bounds”. That is someone who pulled out ALL of his political markers to get a false success after being shut out on everything else.
Yes, our mouths were agape, but only because the whole congress was so impotent and people were taking Pelosi and Reid seriously. For me it was high comedy, because I had already gone on record that this country and the world will enter a period as bad or worse than the Great Depression. Obamacare was a sideshow. It still is. There is no way it can help, and the only damage it can do is akin to an old WWII dogfight where a plane is shooting into a plane already going down in flames.
>>Not really a tko he sucker punched and ran for his corner to let the rest of the tag team fight.<<
That a much more apt analogy. More like a Mexican wrestling tag team where one hapless member (the American People) stands in the middle of the ring while the other guy tags out and all his teammates (congress) gang up and smack the poor sucker down from the front and back.
The rules don’t apply to those wrestlers just like the Constitution doesn’t seem apply to the zerobama nor congress.
Bibi putting a suplex on the coward who tagged out while the coward was on the apron was satisfaction for all of us.
This might also answer the question: “how far can you stretch an analogy?” ;)
” That is not someone who’s “power knows no bounds”.” <<
I get what you are saying. I am saying that the audacity left us agape. Marxism is now somewhat institutionalized and even in the case of a win for us in 17 months, it will take years to undo and we have to take the senate to maximize any progress for our side. That’s power inarguably. (In my humble opinion.)
Well, we certainly agree on the audacity part.
Urkel is like a 2 year old that is pushing the limits to see what he can get away with. He’s finding out that there is not a lot of push back when he just goes around the law.
Expect a lot more of it as things get worse and worse between now and November.
My advice to FReepers, coming from one who was raised in the Florida Jewish community, is forget them. The non-commie Jews will be right there in the TEA party, the 912 groups, etc. and they will not need any “outreach”.
As for the rest, they are unlikely to respond in any numbers even remotely worth the effort. They are, essentially, commies then, now and for as long as those better than they remain willing defend them from those wanting to destroy them.
From Debbie Wasserman-whatever, the list of collectivist impaired Jews is far too long to address on FR.
Given that Jews are disproportionatley represented in the population of government employees and public school teachers, I can see no reason they will change.
Rather than waste dime one on such, I suggest spending the money on a careful and well documented program to educate the average voter on the failure of the public school system, the huge waste in the public sector union populations, and hope they will vote for their own pocket and the Constitution.
Government must be put back in the carefully crafted restraints defined by the Founders.
Failure in the above will mean serfdom, if not Sharia Law.
PS Any Jew who supports Obama after Obama said he would stand with the Muslims deserves what Obama and his Moslim Brotherhood hoodies are plotting for them.
If Ya’ all don’t dump Obama, I do hope Ya’ all “Got Burqua”.
You’re right. Any Jew who votes for Obama and the Democrats is like a Jew voting for Hitler and the Nazi Party in 1933. Liberalism = vicious anti-semitism in 2011. Hussein Obama and his arab loving friends want the end of Israel, and that means the end of the Jewish people.
Actually, he came into office as a persistent liar and phony, and has pretty much acted up to expectations - of anyone with an eye to see and an ear to hear,
Unfortunately, as P.T. Barnum observed, “There’s a sucker born every minute.”
No one ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the American people.
