Obama should speak up now in support of Israel

“Pathetic Hussein. His Jew COS is Rahm Emmanuel who supposedly served with the IDF, yet they simply couldn’t make a statement?”

Please stop spreading this myth. Rahm Emmanuel DID NOT serve in the IDF. He went to Israel as a volunteer mechanic and performed as such as a civilian in a civilian capacity.

Such a statement would bolster Bush's final efforts to secure a durable cease-fire in the region.

THIS is why Obama won't speak out. He does not want to give Bush credit for anything.

It is ALWAYS politics over principles for liberals.

Think he has an opinion; just not willing to share it openly; fully; until the that final 'i' is dotted and 't' crossed per the One's official Inauguration (versus his current and confirmed annointing. . .)

“Say bro. Uh, dis here presidentin is - uh - mo harder dan - uh - I taughts it wuz!”

Amazing. He’s had PLENTY to say about the economy and all sort of other topics, but shuts his pie hole on this? Interesting, to say the least.

[Mac from Cleveland]

Excellent. Your post sums it up perfectly.

“Obama should speak up now in support of Israel”

When Obama “speaks”, it _won’t be_ to “support” Israel.

It will be to support _Islam_.

I would assume Hussein does not want to upset the SEVENTY PERCENT (70%) of Democrats who support Hamas.

[Munz]

the one knows what he wants, he doesn’t know how to go about it politically without cutting off his ...... support. Ahem.

If he was in support of Israel he could just agree with this administrations stance at this point in time. He has not been so camera shy about it before when he has agreed with something they are doing during transition.
But he has not gone against Bush on anything publicly that I can remember during transition.

That is telling I think.

Every time 0 stands behind that silly “Office of the president Elect” shield he shows he is just another political clown. When he gets to stand behind the real thing we will see him for the empty suit he is.
