CHARLOTTE - Following what Obama campaign officials said was the personal intervention of President Barack Obama, the Democratic National Committee reversed itself and altered their platform Wednesday afternoon to include language identifying Jerusalem as the capital of Israel.

After defending their decision to keep such language out of the platform as recently as this afternoon, convention leaders today proposed two amendments to the platform adopted on Tuesday, one to add a mention of God and one to add a mention of Jerusalem.
"Jerusalem is and will remain the capital of Israel. The parties have agreed that Jerusalem is a matter for final status negotiations. It should remain an undivided city accessible to people of all faiths," the new platform language stated.
An Obama campaign official told The Cable late Wednesday that the change in platform was made to reflect the personal views of Obama, who believes that Jerusalem is the capital of Israel and who "personally intervened" to ask for the platform change.

Your logic is frighteningly clear.
"Jerusalem is and will remain the capital of Israel. The parties have agreed that Jerusalem is a matter for final status negotiations. It should remain an undivided city accessible to people of all faiths," the new platform language stated. An Obama campaign official told The Cable late Wednesday that the change in platform was made to reflect the personal views of Obama, who believes that Jerusalem is the capital of Israel and who "personally intervened" to ask for the platform change."Jerusalem is a matter for final status negotiations" and "Jerusalem is the capital of Israel" are diametrically opposed outcomes -- and the latter is a change in Zero's position. But of course, it matters little to his supporters, who are morons moving in lockstep. Also of no importance to his mob of morons is the fact that he's lying.
What was originally left out of the platform is Obam’s true feelings about Israel. The Rats put it back in out of fear, not because the dear leader had a change of heart. For the record, he doesn’t seem to have one- bleeding heart liberal doesn’t count!
Can any one say BRAVO SIERRA to this rhetoric?????????
