Zero is fast becoming a vilified, hated man.
President Barack Obama signed a waiver Thursday that will allow the Palestinian Liberation Organization to retain its office in Washington, D.C.Of course, in the past, its office wasn't actually *in* the White House...
The waiver was released at about the same time that Obama was having a Passover Seder at the White House with friends and members of his staff.Oh, I didn't realize he was pretending to be a Jew, too.
The $83.4 billion supplemental spending bill Obama sent to Congress Thursday contains $800 million "to support the Palestinian people, strengthen the Palestinian Authority and provide humanitarian assistance for the crisis in Gaza," a statement from the Office of Management and Budget said.That'll look good when he's running for reelection -- "he kept us out of balance."
