You think He's overcome with thoughts of kindness and benevolence toward a nation that has murdered 52 million of his innocent little ones?

...when Barack Obama was a student at Columbia University. What were the burning international issues of that time? Well, first was the "nuclear freeze" movement, which was prompting mass demonstrations around the world by people worried about the standoff between the Soviet Union and the United States. Obama published an article about it in a campus magazine in which he invoked the vision of "a nuclear free world." The Middle East, meanwhile, was still reeling from the 1982 Israeli invasion of Lebanon -- which was the apotheosis of the Zionist right's dream of creating a "greater Israel" including all of the Palestinian West Bank.

Thanks 2ndDivisionVet. It must be that "the 1980s" must be another term for "up his ass".
