(CNSNews.com) Contradicting a longstanding U.S. policy that irks many conservatives, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton on Monday identified Jerusalems location at least three times as being in Israel.
The apparent slip-ups came during Clintons first visit to the Israeli capital in two years, on the final day of a nine-country, 12-day trip.
SNIP
Those words here in Israel and back in Israel fly in the face of strict U.S. government policy not to state publicly that Jerusalem, Israels capital, is in fact located in Israel.

Right, more bungling and serial incompetence from the woman whose naked ambition, personal credentials and direct association with arguably the most venal and publicly disgraced President in American history, in no way recommend her for the position she holds.

Her handler had to know wed notice....Agreed but, it was, by design, a very, very subtle message that Zero's campaign wanted to be said so it will be on this evenings news - maybe being presented as a mistake but getting the message across that this administration really supports Jerusalem as being in Israel.
This "mistake" could then grow legs into conversations about ME Peace and how Zero needs a second term in order to support Israel in the peace process.
It's a buncha crap however.....

OR, it could be looked at that Hillary is looking at the long haul and wants to be seen as apposed to Obama’s hate of Israel for a future election. If any of Obama’s people confront her on this she can always say it was a slip of the tongue or the other excuses Democrats always come up with.

The Muslim Brotherhood is not going to like this! I think Obama is going to have to make an example out of her.

Did she stay at the King David? It was also interesting to note she did not go to the West Bank and that was also a first. The whole thing was to pander to the Jewish voter. Try to fool them again. Hopefully they won’t be fooled again.....

Is this a deliberate act, a smokescreen, or just her being too adelpated to keep her instructions straight. I’m not complaining. Whatever it is, I’m for it continuing.

Obama has topped Bill in the venality department. If only he got caught in flagrant delicto with a male intern, he’d beat his public disgrace record, too. Unlikely, though. Probably just contents himself with muscle magazines and Mr. Palmer and his five sons.
