A new poll out of the Pew Research Center the shifting political sands in the

I hope Israel tells Obama to pound sand...
I expect a yawn...Obama is trying to catch up so he can lead, but I dont hear very many people from the region who care anymore what America thinks, says or wants.
I agree to a point... I think people in the region do care about what America thinks, says or wants,
but they no longer care what Obama thinks, says or wants... American's feel the same way about Obama.

The problem is that you need to go all the way back to Carter to find an administration that was helpful in the region. A lot of fine big words have been spoken between then and now, but at some point the talk needs to yield results.

Now there's a poll that needn't have been taken to know the result.
"Yes ma'am, what we'd like to know is how you feel about the man who continually raped and beat you. Have you forgiven him for that half century of abuse, all the while stealing your wealth? Just a yes or no will suffice."

If they ever meet in a debate, Herman Cain will mop the
floor with Obama... this scares the crap out of liberals.

One thing should be abundantly clear. That is the fact that Israel should not be and probably will not be inclined to do anything to jeopardize its survival as a nation, regardless of what Obama wants or suggests.
Do you understand the charges of racism that the right continually hurls at the left? Is it akin to their trumpeting themselves as the faction of personal responsibility?

@Gargamel,
Actually, palin does scare the crap out of liberals. The woman can barely speak her native language despite allegedly having a degree in journalism (!) after attending five colleges and never majoring in journalism!
