Is Ehud's Poodle Acting Up?
As Israel entered the third week of its Gaza blitz, Prime Minister Ehud Olmert regaled a crowd in Ashkelon with an astonishing tale.
He had, said Olmert, whistled up George Bush, interrupted him in the middle of a speech and told him to instruct Condi Rice not to vote for a U.N. resolution Condi herself had written. Bush did as told, said Olmert.
The crowd loved it. Here is the background.
After intense negotiations with Britain and France, Secretary of State Rice had persuaded the Security Council to agree on a resolution calling for a cease-fire. But Olmert wanted more time to kill Hamas.

Oh...that was funny. Good one.
The relevant issue here is not Pat’s commentary. He’s essentially irrelevant.
It’s that the PM of a “friendly” country, one which the US has indeed supported at considerable cost, would make such remarkably disrespectful comments.
Does anybody here care to defend Olmert saying such things about an American President and Sec of State? True or untrue?
He’s just megaphoning Ohlmert’s story; is Ohlmert a Nazi? Why would Ohlmert lie? We did vote to abstain on our own resolution.
Thanks. It’s a Pat Buchanan-thread tradition.
Some Jew must have driven by Pat on the street when he was younger and splashed his jackboots with mud. I’m not sure how else to explain his rabid anti-semitism.
Take a powder, son. Tomorrow you’ll hear a lot about the Steeler’s BLITZ, the team from BLITZBURGH. It’s not b/c the fellows are Nazis. It’s because it’s become a common word for a quick powerful attack. That fits what’s happened to Gaza.
Not on this thread, apparently.
How is this story antisemitic. It is a retelling of what the PM of Israel said. Either it’s true, and our President acted disgracefully. Or it’s false, and shows the contempt that the USA is held in Israel.
Either way, it’s bad for our country.
If we are going to trot out Nazi analogies, Olmert’s speech reminds me of Hitler bragging to the Reichstag about how he’d pushed around one of his henchman states, like Hungary or Slovakia, or perhaps bragging about his negotiations with appeasers like Chamberlain.
Olmert’s speech is quite extraordinary for one head of government to speak of another. I cannot think of anything better suited to support the whole “Elders of Zion,” the Jews control the world and especially the US paradigm.
It was remarkably stupid and self-destructive for Israel, not to mention highly rude.
Yes, undoubtedly, Buchanan was thinking about football.
Your logic is impeccable.
>>>>>>>Either way, it’s bad for our country.
You are right again. But don't except to be thanked for it here. As George Washington predicted in his Farewell Address, "Real patriots who may resist the intrigues of the favorite are liable to become suspected and odious, while its tools and dupes usurp the applause and confidence of the people, to surrender their interests."
That pretty much captures the essence of Ehud Olmert's entire administration/government...
Olmert has been indicted. He has as much credibility as Blago.
It seems that Buchanan is actually Olmert’s poodle.
Pat not a libby, he is living in the 1930’s. There was no state of Israel then. Oh, and of course, US intervention in the “European War” (aka WWII) was not stricly necessary.
Pat’s a loon and he’s making a living at it. THE MSM love him because he confirms their stereotypes of conservatives.
The folks that don’t get what Israel is doing will not jusy have to answer to the G!D of the universe but will bow down to HaMeshiach soon enough. Fools trying to turn G!d’s halacha and His Son into some sort of mere human....
Pat Buchanan may be a good Roman Catholic.shalom b'SHEM Yah'shua HaMashiach AdonaiBy his words he reveals himself as someone who hates Jesus Christ.
Mat 25:40 "The King will answer and say to them,May Pat one day seek his salvation in YHvH.
'Truly I say to you, to the extent that you did it to
one of these brothers of Mine, {even} the least
{of them,} you did it to Me.'
>> Why are you posting this filth? <<
Apparently he thinks it bears repeating. (/play on words)
Oops, wrong Pat.
