Pro-Palestinian-in-Chief Obama’s hard-Left tilt is real

It’s time to revisit the issue of President Obama’s Palestinian ties. During his time in the Illinois state senate, Obama forged close alliances with the most prominent Palestinian political leaders in America. Substantial evidence also indicates that during his pre-Washington years, Obama was both supportive of the Palestinian cause and critical of America’s stance toward Israel. Although Obama began to voice undifferentiated support for Israel around 2004 (as he ran for U.S. Senate and his national visibility rose), critics and even some backers have long suspected that his pro-Palestinian inclinations survive...

The record is clear. Obama’s heritage, his largely hidden history of leftist radicalism, and his close friendship with Rashid Khalidi, all bespeak sincerity, as Obama’s other Palestinian associates agree. This is not to mention Reverend Wright — whose rabidly anti-Israel sentiments, I show in Radical-in-Chief, Obama had to know about — or Obama’s longtime foreign-policy adviser Samantha Power, who once apparently recommended imposing a two-state solution on Israel through American military action. Decades of intimate alliances in a hard-Left world are a great deal harder to fake than a few years of speeches at AIPAC conferences.

Good luck getting relected, radical!

Well, DUH!

It's not that O is a "foreigner" as some contend. I am surrounded by pro-Palestinian, Marxist, Eco-freaks here in Oregon. They elect Peter DeFazio as the "progressive" congressman and likeminded senators and governor. No one who actually listened to O during his campaign or paid attention to his appointments, not to forget his 20+ year association with Rev Wright and O's positions on state government or the US Senate can voice surprise or disbelief. His is what we elected and what at least half of us still will support in 2012.

That is the real evil.

Follow the money.....if you can. People in that position don’t do anything unless they get paid for it, sooner or later.

Question: How many Jewish-American’s voted for the o?

Answer: Those that didn’t care about the future of Israel as a Nation.

The combination of Hussein and Hilary Clinton is a defacto death sentence to Israel. Both could not be more anti-Israel.

Thanks ventanax5. Of course, this just sweetens the deal for the skinheads and cross-burners who often pretend to be conservatives, libertarians, and/or Republicans.
