U.S. Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama amended his support for Israel's stance on Jerusalem on Thursday, saying Palestinians and Israelis had to negotiate the future of the holy city.
Palestinian leaders reacted with anger and dismay on Wednesday to Obama saying Jerusalem should be Israel's undivided capital.
"Well, obviously, it's going to be up to the parties to negotiate a range of these issues. And Jerusalem will be part of those negotiations," Obama told CNN when asked whether Palestinians had no future claim to the city.

Clearly, Obama is already outperforming John Kerry in the all-important flip-flopping competition.

“Facing criticism”? — but, don’t people understand that’s racist?

Look how quickly he caved to the Muslims. Right. But he’ll be tough with Iran over its nuclear weapons.

I love how liberals can ‘modify’ or ‘amend’ while those mean spirited conservatives backtrack or correct.

The American public needs to wake up to the fact Obama is a classic Chicago Democrat. He’s nothing special. In fact, he is probably worse than most politicians due to the corrupt political environment he calls home.
