Definition of CONTIGUOUS 1: being in actual contact: touching along a boundary or at a point -- of angles : adjacent 2 3: next or near in time or sequence 4: touching or connected throughout in an unbroken sequence

"The borders of Israel and Palestine should be based on the 1967 lines with mutually agreed swaps, so that secure and recognized borders are established for both states. The Palestinian people must have the right to govern themselves, and reach their potential, in a sovereign and contiguous state," President Obama told American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) attendees on Sunday. The comment was met with no approval or applause.

Does Bibi address AIPAC today and Congress on Tuesday?

Clearly, anyone who supports Mullah Ozero’s call for a return to 1967 borders is anti-semitic and supports Israel’s destruction.

To do this would do exactly what the Hezbos and Hamas have advocated, push Israel into the sea.

Pres. Bush said the same thing in 2007.

The CSA had a right to be a “Sovereign And Contiguous State” — right?

Somehow many Freepers missed many of W’s big weaknesses.

A fair statement.

However, it should be noted that there are a number of freepers who -- if they see any criticism of Obama -- immediately rush out with evidence that Bush made some mistakes.

I fully recognize that Bush made mistakes. Lots of 'em. But I don't feel the need to trot them out whenever anyone dares to speak against The Won.

Of course, Bush was 100x better than Obama. But in this particular case, Obama’s offense is one that Bush was the first president to commit. Not to point that out is shallowly ahistoric.

To say this to a Pro-Israel American Lobby, takes a very special kind of stupid.

He is backtracking a little bit now to calm the jewish democrat flock of sheep, but wait until after he gets reelected. We haven’t seen nothing, yet.

There is no Palestine and there never has been one. Bozo needs to take a flying leap, what an obvious raghead he is.

Gee, since my fellow beloved Americans are not Doctorates in Topology most do not understand the very plain — to a Topologist — meaning of this statement.

What is that meaning? “Israel must be broken up.”

America has a right to a contiguous state. Canada is illegally blocking our right to be connected to Alaska. We must demand they give up British Columbia and the Yukon Territory.

W was the first to say Palestine must be a contiguous state.

If you look at some of the congressional districts that democrats have gerrymandered, you get a pretty good feel for what ‘contiguous’ means to a democrat.
