Obama: Was there any doubt he dislikes Bibi?
The Washington Post ^ | 11-8-11 | Jennifer Rubin

On one level, none of this is surprising. Obama’s irritation with the Jewish state and personal distaste for Netanyahu have been apparent nearly from the start of his presidency. This is just as we would imagine Obama would sound in private.

It’s nearly impossible to image Presidents George W. Bush or Ronald Reagan saying such a thing for the simple reason that neither held our democratic ally is such low esteem. They looked upon the democratically elected leader of our ally with respect and affection.

Obama’s comment put liberal Jews once again in a tight spot. It seems like only last month that the Anti-Defamation League was clucking at citizens to take Israel off the table as a subject of discussion in the 2012 election. But yesterday the ADL trudged back to the topic, obviously glum that Obama had once again revealed himself to be less than a sympathetic friend to Netanyahu and to Israel. A statement read:

We are deeply disappointed and saddened by this decidedly un-Presidential exchange between Presidents Sarkozy and Obama.

A while back, when Bibi lectured the college professor in front of the White Crib fireplace (cleaned Barry's clock), you could see the roiling disdain on Barry's face.

I figured it out when Barry made Bibi come and go from the back door of the White Hut. That was so classy.

Obama, (a muslim), dislikes a Netanyahu, (a Jew).

Go figure.

Not surprised at all with the childish behavior of Ubama.

He hates Jews to begin with.

I’m shocked, shocked I say, that Obama dislikes individual Jews personally and it’s not just Jews as a group that he hates.

Nitpicky, I know, but I hate to see the b*stard receive any more credit than he's due.

Zer0 has no problem letting his hate for Bibi be known just like other hates of his - in a way that has some form of plausible deniability, but which still gets the message out. To wit, his middle finger usage, return of Churchill bust, having Bibi or the Dali Llama go thru back doors and miss presidential meals. Zer0 is pure slime, and it exudes his every pore.

Bibi is so, soooo far above the Cretin-in-Chief that it’s not surprising that Bibi is hated.

Of course, since the Obamaloon hates anyone smarter than he, he spends just about 100% of his time hating.....

Obama is an idiot.

Obama has no class and deserves no respect.

Fortunately, I’m sure Bibi, and Sarkozy, don’t like Obama either!!

You know what Obama said about Dachau?

“A good start.”

I hope, and assume, that Bibi has long ago unleashed the Mossad to find out exactly who this boy king is. Let’s hope he is waiting for the right moment to unleash the hounds! How about October 2012?

Why would anyone be surprised Obama despises Israel? They’re an ally to the “Great Satan”.

The Commie left has always hated Israel, along with the US.
