    @YUPchannel You do know what the CBO is, right? Congressional Budget Office. The country’s accounting office, non biased that is.

    All he said is the right thing to do. We can not continue to support anyone as they take Hitler’s acts as their guidance either arab regimes or israelis.
    Love the way Tunisians did and hope israelis recognize the rights of Palestinians and i hope they revolute against their military regime that they call democracy, a power that shifts from a general to another.

    Best of luck to President Obama. The Middle East and North Africa is a very tricky and complicated path to navigate. I know he will try his best but it will not be easy.

    Why did you throw Israel under the bus? Why do you expect them to commit suicide? Who do you think you are?

    Why doesn’t the President controls his own borders before he tells others what to do with theirs????

  9. ladylordess says:

    @kd5gua Not to mention IF they did return to the 1967 borders, (which they will not, as they did win) it isn’t like all of a sudden there will be peace and they will all just get along.

    Israel is surrounded by terrorists who will not suddenly LOVE the new situation, they will only want MORE and want Israel destroyed.

    Wake up President!!!!

    Hey — y’know, there’s something seriously wrong with this picture of this old imf guy – strauss-kahn- coming out of the bathroom naked and then commence to chasin the 32 yr old maid from guinea around the hotel room and attacking her, draggin her around from room to room, trying to pull her underpanties off, and trying to force her give him head. Do you realize how corney of a story that sounds, and corney a picture that is? you seriously couldnt do any better than that?!!!! has frame allovr it

    @ladylordess I am pretty sure Israel is the terrorist that came and usurped land.

  12. IamYoddle says:

    @ladylordess He is simply giving his view which he has the right to do seeing how the US gives Billions of dollars to Israel each year. If they don’t want to hear views from the US, then stop asking for aid from the US and see how far that gets you.

  13. ohk321 says:

    @ladylordess Every US president’s position has been to condemn illegal settlements and base a solution on pre-1967 borders with land swaps. Obama didn’t throw Israel under the bus; this has been the US’s position for years and is the same as Bush’s.

  14. ladylordess says:

    @ohk321 Uh, huh. And no one has flubbed it as well as Obama did today. We shall see what happens tomorrow. I am sure that the PM isn’t as impressed with Obama’s playing that hand as you are.

  15. ladylordess says:

    @hemmatmahdi You mean they won their war?!!

  16. ohk321 says:

    @ladylordess Obama put a lot of emphasis on supporting and defending Israel. He made it clear that the Hamas-Fatah reconciliation should be approached with caution. He even stated opposition to Palestinian efforts to declare a state through the UN and promised to continue opposing those who single out Israel for criticism through the UN. I STRONGLY fail to see how this is in any way throwing Israel under the bus. This speech did quite the opposite and represents no change on Israel policy.

  17. ladylordess says:

    @ohk321 Uh, huh. Like I said, we shall see tomorrow. I hope the PM stands him up.

    @ladylordess Because the corporations who own all of the fruit and vegetable production in the US want illegal aliens to be here so they can pay them shit wages and reap a huge profit from their labor. No one wants to pay 10 bucks for a head of lettuce. While they pretend to fight a “drug” war, they allow billions of dollars of heroin to be produced in Afghanistan. I wonder, who is profiting from all the heroin? Hmmmm……

  19. MrHomeChef says:

    @hemmatmahdi No one will listen to the truth. The US propaganda machine has made every Arab a terrorist, every Muslim an extremist, and Israel is known as the “Good Guys”. The Israeli land grab was just as wrong as the US taking the land from the American Indians. We’ll support Israel because we are owned by AIPAC. As long as the US keeps interfering and giving money to Israel and the Palestinians the problems there will never be resolved.

  20. hemmatmahdi says:

    @ladylordess I didn’t know terrorism was justified by calling it war? lmao

    What about the Kurds??

  22. billabong72000 says:

    Anyone else notice how disrespectful these guys are to each other when they are speaking? No eye contact and typing away loudly on their laptops… Rather ridiculous.
