(BOWLING GREEN, OHIO) Over the course of her two months on the campaign trail, Sarah Palin has accused Barack Obama of “palling around with a terrorist,” wanting to “wave the white flag of surrender to the terrorists” and has suggested that he doesn’t want to win the wars the United States is fighting. At a rally here this afternoon, she upped the ante even further by wondering aloud whether the Democratic nominee really supports Israel in the way he has repeatedly affirmed he does.

Palin’s impetus was a story published in the Los Angeles Times in April about a 2003 banquet, in which the then Illinois state senator spoke about his friendship with Rashid Khalidi, a former PLO spokesman and current Columbia University professor, who has a history of espousing views on Israel that many consider incendiary.

“And the twist here is that there's a videotape of a party for this person, back in 2003, a celebration of him, and Barack was there, and we know some very derogatory things were said there about Israel and America's support for that great nation,” Palin said. “And among other things, Israel was described there as the perpetrator of terrorism instead of the victim.”

Palin then insinuated that Obama might not support Israel in the way he says he does.

“What we don't know is how Barack Obama responded to these slurs on a country that he now professes to support,” Palin said.

“I feel that if Iran Nukes Israel Obama might bring marshmallows. Or the next best thing—go to the UN and make a speech. I think he is for the Muslin Arabs more than any other political leader in history. The people of the Middle East see this clearly. McCain/Palin is the best hope for Israel.”

Without a doubt Forward the Light Brigade. The one thing I can see Obama doing for Israel is to sit down in the “Holy of Hollies” and demand to be worshipped.

I think you will appreciate this comparison at www.BlackJFK.com It’s hillarious - but true. It sounds like a pro-Obama website but it’s not. (That’s the idea I guess).

God bless.
