    This man just continues to sicken me. [​IMG] You've managed to make time in your schedule to appear on Letterman this month, but you can't make time to meet with Netanyahu about one of the greatest threats to mankind? He absolutely disgusts me.

    Israel will move quickly and he might as well keep his mouth shut after the fact.

    The question is, where will Obama stand if/when Israel strikes? Will there be a formal statement denouncing or supporting Israel? Will there be some support of Israel, in the form of drones or military? Or will Obama go so far as to link America with a UN-led anti-Israel movement in the form of sanctions or something similar (since none of the arab nations are actually foolish enough to challenge Israel's nuclear capability)?

    Given that the UN has determined that Iran is making nukes and the ever rising and reasonable concern that Israel has over it this just shows that Obama does not know what he is doing and his ineptness with regard to foreign policy.

    I think O knows EXACTLY what he is doing, and he's doing it on purpose. Israel is our ally. By NOT meeting with the prime minister, O is showing his true colors. He is no friend to Israel. Really, really stupid move on his part, especially right before elections.

    Agreed up until your last remark -- The astonishing part is that the Jewish vote will probably STILL be for the O.

    Spoke with a friend of mine in Florida last night who has several Jewish friends there - they are still for obama.

    Obama sickens me, as well, nearly everything he does, nearly every word he speaks. Yet the masses are enthralled with him as their "messiah." If he is not the AC, he certainly is in the running, IMO.

    HOORAY FOR OBAMA!!!!

    It's all politics.

    Netanyahu is all bluff, huff and puff.

    Israel is not going to strike Iran.

    Likud wants American citizens & taxpayers to bear the brunt of striking Iran for Israel.

    Nothing short of an all out invasion and regime change is going to stop Iran from becoming a nuclear power.

    GO OBAMA!!!

    Liberals , like yourself, often speak without knowing what in the world they are talking about. Shameful.

    I just came back from Israel and I can tell you that the pressure and concern grows daily on everyday Israeli citizens. Americans, like yourself, who sit over here in their easy chairs (cheap seats) and think they understand what is needed and pass ridiculous judgments, like you did, are <PA deleted - LE>.

    After January 20, he should have time for both.

    You like to sling around demeaning names. First of all Kyredneck is not a liberal in any shape, form, or fashion. I am a Constitutional conservative. You have no idea what you are. Really, I would not post anything that implies they do not know what they are talking about.

    Since I have also been to Israel, and many other nations in the area, that does not add one bit to your understanding.

    Seen through the viewpoint that the last time Netanyahu was here he lectured and humiliated Obama I can understand why Obama doesn't want to meet him again!

    But, it is a snub of the highest order.

    What does Obama's appearance on Letterman have to do with snubbing Netanyahu?

    I'm no liberal, I just love my country, and, I'm definitely not the <pa deleted - LE>.

    Oh wow, gosh shucky darn, did you you get a patch or a merit badge for this?

    Oh wow, gosh shucky darn, think maybe this could be fulfillment of certain scriptural curses contained in Lev 26 and Dt 28 (I have to be careful here because the moderator will delete and or edit my post, I'm not allowed to quote scripture)?

    Honesty...or dishonesty, rather given the excuse why he could not meet.

    I read that they couldn't meet because they would be in New York on differing days.

    The Israelis were told only "The president's schedule will not permit that".

    Late night talk shows and Jay Z / Beyonce fundraisers are much more important than Armageddon. :)

    I wonder how many rounds of golf he will manage to fit in, though.

    I'd love to respond to this yet another of your thousands of 'knee jerk quips', but I've been forbidden to discuss 'theology' on this 'political' forum. I kinda think you could get away with it though, but not me.

    I wasn't discussing theology, I was pointing out how a false eschatalogical position can lead someone to cheer for Obama, an antichrist.

    Could be plausible deniability to keep distance when Israel attacks.
