(IsraelNN.com) Democratic presidential hopeful Barack Obama's campaign seems to have purposely leaked the contents of the note that he placed in the Kotel, web magazine Israel Insider wrote Tuesday. While Israel's Hebrew newspaper Maariv came under fire for publishing the note, "it now appears that Maariv had collaborated with the Obama campaign in getting the 'private' prayer, with its 'modest' supplication to the Lord, out to the public, buffing his Christian credentials and showing his "humility," the web magazine said.

I don’t understand what the big deal is. Wasn’t his “prayer” just “Kill Whitey” written over and over on the back of an empty pack of Kools?

We here and listeners to talk radio are the only informed citizens who will be educated regarding this farce of a note.

Tell your liberal friends!

“Beware of practicing your piety before men in order to be seen by them; for then you will have no reward from your Father who is in heaven....And when you pray, you must not be like the hypocrites; for they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and at the street corners, that they may be seen by men.”

The media is so lame... They never ask any questions and just lap up anything that Obama and his minions offer.

Will this hit the mainstream press? LOL

I only need to observe a lie once. Thank you, though, for the thought.

..”Isn’t there a Biblical injunction by Jesus against people who make a big show of their religion in the Temple?”

A better question may be...do you think liberals care what Jesus thinks? Or for that matter Muslims, or enemies within the US?

Nonbelievers could care less. Observe the high level of support that Hussein receives.

I had this pegged as a PR stunt when a color photo of the actual note was reprinted in our LOCAL morning paper, front page, within hours of the story hitting the wire.

Inquiring minds realized this was a stunt from the beginning. Obama will not stop at using anyone or anything- even to pretending to be a spiritual person, and then trying to use God to advance his goals for the WH. Hey, Obama...God knows too. He knows what is in your heart and soul and what you really are. No matter how much of a communicator you might think you are, you can’t talk God out of recognizing the real you! Especially when you play the game of pretending to pray to Him only so you can get publicity! Like “Mother Nature,” you can’t fool God.

This is a huge scandal. If only the sheeple would see it as such. Using the Western “Wailing” Wall for a photo op is just simply beyond the pale.

There was a reply scrawled on the bottom of the hotel stationery:

Dear Barry: I have no idea where you are coming from. Do you worship Me in spirit and in truth or are you still dabbling with Islam? If you believe, you know all prayers and all redemption comes to me by passing through the narrow gate known as my Son. Now, go forth and stop acting like a Messiah, and get thy feces together.

Yours truly, GOD (Order of Saint Benedict)

Edited Basketball Shot...The Ruse About the Note in Jerusalem...Ignored the Troops in the Hospital and Went to the Gym...Sounds like a heck of a trip to Europe...who says pictures endure...maybe the Germans but the sour taste in our mouths is what seems to be lingering amongst the American people.

Agreed. That word “audacity” comes to mind...and his behavior even fringes on blasphemy IMHO. This man makes me very ill. On one hand he places a note in the Wailing Wall asking for God’s blessings in his life. To use the most spiritual and sacred place of the Jewish people to gain some PR is unforgiveable. Then only a few days later he “slams” the Jewish people with this new pronouncement, hoping that will turn more hatred toward Israel. He is a fork-tongued snake and people better wake up before he is in control. There will be an ominous outcome for the US and the world if BHO steps one foot in the Oval Office. Obama has sinister plans - plans that are rooted in something other than just politics, and guided by a force opposite of God, I do believe.

Due to his mixed heritage, Barack has developed a coping mechanism to get through each day of his life. He has mastered the art of ZELIG. Even Barack's own words he said he was an angered and troubled youth, due to his blackness in a white environment. He deloped his ZELIG skills to cope...and so far........the media is JUST beginning to see some of these traits. Some are talking about his "thinking he is President" (ZELIG) hides out in black churches to "become a black christian" (ZELIG).....I am sure others can come up with more examples....his flip flops are examples of "playing whatever" environmental/social change that is thrown at him. HE is lost in "who he is" and we are to be assured that he is a LEADER. He can't lead when he doesn't have a sense of WHO he is...lead by what? WHIM, feeling???? Barack is a ZELIG!

zelig
(n.) A human chameleon; someone who has no personality of their own. Word originates in the mockumentary ‘Zelig’.
That guy can never make up his mind; he always agrees with whoever he is talking to. He is such a Zelig.

REAL life diagnosis at this LINK....
http://bps-research-digest.blogspot.com/2007/03/brain-damage-turns-man-into-human.html

His “Zelig” disorder is directly related to his anger and unhappiness of being an abandoned bi-racial & conflicted religious child.

His inability to define a static identity is becoming more and more obvious... He has a dynamic identity so that he has become nothing more than a Human Chameleon, he uses this skill until it backfires.

When it backfires he either becomes one of the following to FIGHT off the demons:

Black Muslim
Black Christian
Black Atheist
White Christian
White Atheist
Biracial Muslim
Biracial Christian
Biracial Atheist Lawyer Senator President Candidate

HE IS NEVER BARACK! So at the WALL, he pretended to be the “what”? WHO was he?

We know when the outrage over the comments from Jeremiah Wright were only met with a HO_HUM from Barack because he was the "child like black youth seeking guidance" wasn't outraged by the Black head of church....BUT WOOOOOOOOO as soon as a WHITE CHRISTIAN made similar crappy statements....Barack was an OUTRAGED Black Christian man.

p>

HENCE his disturbing “Both Sides Barack Personality Conflict”

I call them Barackly Moments...pronounced like broccoli
