Obama Official: Netanyahu Waiting for ‘President Palin’
INN ^ | 6-8-10 | Tzvi Ben Gedalyahu

The Netanyahu government’s attitude to the United States shows it is “waiting for President [Sarah] Palin, an Obama official reportedly told Peter Beinart, writing for the Atlantic Monthly news site. Palin was the Republican candidate for vice president two years ago and is considered a front-running candidate for the next presidential election in 2012.

“As an Obama official once told me about the Netanyahu team, with amazement, ‘these guys are actually waiting for President Palin,’” wrote Beinart, a senior political writer for The Daily Beast and associate professor of journalism and political science at City University of New York.

In a critical article noting that Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and senior government officials preach to the chorus of right-wing and Christian fundamentalist groups in the United States,

"This is what’s funny, if anything McCain will run in 2012 ..."


An interesting prediction, one that I had not considered. Do you really think he will actually run again at his age? You may be right, but I had already assumed that he would not be in the race. Of course I have not been paying much attention to speculation about 2012 with the elections looming this year.

I may go overboard.

But what happened to her in 2008 drew my ire and it is still pure rage at the MSM. I want to see Palin do well and have a second chance.

Pace is a good man. Has he made any overtures?

Sounds totally credible.

“Evidence contradicts your position. Jews voted overwhelmingly for 0.”

No not where the smarts are concerned, the Jews here for the most part hate the Israelis because they will fight.

Not putting it on hold. Just not trusting Zero when it comes to Israel’s security and interests.

Bibi will do what he needs to do to protect Israel.

BHO is no friend of Israel.

No. Palin is a Reagan. Golda was a far more cerebral leader. Not much charisma, but huge passion for Zionism. Golda was much more like a quiet Churchill...

Unfortunately, not at this point. There were some efforts to try and convince him to run for the Virginia Senate seat being vacated by former RINO John "Mr Elizabeth Taylor" Warner, but nothing materialized. I've considered that General Pace might just be too damn honest to seek elective office, GWB dumped him as the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs when the 'Rat controlled Senate started hinting that they would give Pace a hard time during confirmation, why?

Because in 2007, Pace said in an interview with the Chicago Tribune, “I believe that military members who sleep with other military members’ wives are immoral in their conduct, and that we should not tolerate that. I believe that homosexual acts between individuals are immoral, and that we should not condone immoral acts.”, in response to a question regarding the current "don't ask/don't tell" policy.

Pace stated that those were his personal views, but of course the imbedded homosexual-queer lobby seized on those comments and the 'Rat faux-outrage and megaphone machine was immediately activated.

First Conclusion: General Pace is a man with high moral standards and will not compromise those standards, no matter what the current 'flavor-of-the-month' is regarding social issues.

He pissed off every single homosexual activist, and that makes him definitely 'ok' in my book.

It was ironic that he passed on running for Warner's former seat, because it was RINO Warner who pompously emoted on the whole homosexuals-in-the-military issue, “I respectfully, but strongly, disagree with the chairman’s view that homosexuality is immoral”

Second conclusion?

Former Senator John Warner likes faggots.

No surprise. Warner stuck the knife into the back of Ollie North too, another fine Marine and patriot just like Pace.

I believe the long standing support for 'Rats from Jewish voters is based on former President Harry Truman's virtually immediate recognition of the State of Israel when it was re-established on May 14, 1948. America was first to recognize Israel as a modern nation, it stands to reason that Jewish voters would remember who was responsible, and what political party's President made it happen.

Yup the General is a total question mark. His name being in the mix is pure speculation.

If he’s a conservative Republican he’s an intriguing choice. But we don’t know how he feels about any domestic issue or whether he would be able to engage the public as a candidate.
