Are you advocating that President Obama give up his principles to pander to the Jewish vote?
Don't most politicians do that?

Bush was hated because he didn't give up his principles.

I think he stated he would spend more on education and such, he just let the Dems like Kennedy write the bills. I didn't agree with itUm... Bush was hated by many because he sold on out fiscally conservative beliefs and approved things the Democrat congress voted through. Bush was a sell out when it comes to his beliefs.
Bush isn't really "hated" by anyone of significance. The most I can say for Bush is that I think he was incompetent and that his foreign policy was disastrous. But I don't hate the guy.
Seems Obama not strongly supporting israel has come back to haunt him....the orthodox jews which have a huge community in this district voted for the GOP.
This does not bode well for Obama...if the jews abandon him...they are some of his staunchest supporters and donors. I am ALL FOR total support of Israel.
Republican wins Democratic New York House seat - The Washington Post
Bob Turner, the winner, cast the election as a referendum on Obama’s stewardship of the economy and, in the state’s Ninth Congressional District, which has a large population of Orthodox Jewish voters, the president’s position on Israel.
Yeah, time of another monkey morph photo, what didn't you post that?
That's why those in the ME don't respect him, hell they don't even fear him. Bush knew that only the introduction of liberty could ultimately defeat the terrorists. The war just the method to start the process.
Strange, that's how the US was started, by a war against an oppressive regime.
Is it that Obama didn't support Israel enough? Or could it more likely be that the whole of the government, R and D, have ****ed us over so hardcore that we're going to see a lot of replacement when we have the chance?
Also, **** Israel. Why do we have to "support" them? Let them support themselves.
The writing is beginning to appear on the wall. Obama had better start doing the right thing for this country, or get the hell out of the White House.
Because we are at least partially responsible for their problems...what with having helped plan and impliment the recreation of a jewish state in the 40s.

That was England and the UN. Let them deal with it. Besides, that was over 60 years ago. They're big boys and girls now; they can take care of themselves.
Yeah, let's let the entirety of the Middle East be turned into a massive caliphate run by the Muslim Brotherhood. Fear of Israel is the only thing that keeps that region in check. They "take care of themselves" better than any nation in the world; I wish we had their resolve.
The irony of that statement must have been lost on you...Only a sith deals in absolutes...
We had a significant hand in that entire situation. You can pass the buck if you want, but we were definitely involved. As for "screw it; every man for himself"...I get that you're a hardcore, no-government, **** the government kind of libertarian, but use some logic here. Once you've totaled the other guys car you have an obligation to provide your information and help get it fixed/replaced. In other words, you can't screw the pooch and walk out on the puppies. That would be far more disasterous than big government involvment.
If I wreck a car, sure. But if I gift something, I'm not responsible for how that gift is used. How long? How long is our "obligation" to this crap? If it's forever, let Palestine have it back. I'm not willing to forever fund another government like this. They're self-sufficient have have more than enough ability to self-govern. It is no longer our responsibility.

Nope nope.
Bush was hated because of Iraq, plain and simple.
For both Blair and Bush, Iraq was their undoing.
Isn't that what liberals, and the media was saying after Scott Brown? then we had '10....Ok.
j-mac
Yeah...if he wants to get re elected that is...
