Shalom ( a letter from Israel this morning )

Attack, no attack, Russia, Syria, weakness, ‘Obamaism’, never a dull moment…..

With all going on now with Obama, it reminds me an old Jewish tale:

It all happened in a small town in Eastern Europe. The ‘Paritz’ (the village owner), accused one of the Jewish settlers for stealing part of his crops. He sentenced him and of coarse found him guilty. To show the other villagers how mighty and generous he was, he gave the poor Jew the privilege to choose his punishment: 50 lashes on the back or eating 50 rotten fish, or to be expelled from the town.

Thinking it over the Jew selected eating the fish. So he started eating, but after about 30 fish he felt he cant eat no more and asked to be beaten. They than, turned him with his face to the ground and started beating him. After 40 lashes or so, as he felt he is about to die, the poor Jew raised his hand and said: ‘you know what I think I will choose the third option’.

And thus he has not only eaten the rotten fish, and not only got beaten, he also was expelled from town….

EWww again. Visualizing someone under the podium, I just had a Clinton/Lewinski flashback.

Well, except in this case, it would be some guy.

[austinaero]

The burdens of leadership are heavy ...

Gee, Putin seems to be handling it very well. I haven’t heard him complain a bit. Poor widdle Obama.

[hsalaw]

He's asking his liberal "friends" to do it for the children.

And he's asking Republicans to do it for the military(?!?!) Or something.

[Apparatchik]

President Guilt Trip.
