Klutzy Obama Pisses Off Key Ally

Published by at 7:28 am under 2012 Elections,All General Discussions

It seems Obama’s last two years in office are going to be a string of debacles, where his inner left-wing-nut-job comes to the surface and causes havoc. Pelosi and Reid cannot cover for him anymore.

A President can hold some views out of the mainstream, but he needs to work the changing of minds in private, not in the media. This camera-happy President has not figured that out. Again, his woeful inexperience is shining through. Face it, some of us part time bloggers and long time followers of Politics probably have more political skills than our teleprompting President has shown. Giving voice to words on a screen is probably one of those minor skills a good politician must have, but it cannot be their primary or only skill!

President Obama has just opened a major rift with our key ally in the Middle East – Israel. And he has done it with smashing panache and ruin. For example:

PM slams Obama call for ‘Palestine’ based on ’67 lines

… Netanyahu issued a quick, bitter response on Thursday night to Obama’s landmark Middle East speech, saying that the establishment of a Palestinian state could not come “at Israel’s expense.”

And also here:

For his part, Mr. Netanyahu has complained that Mr. Obama has pushed Israel too far — a point driven home during a furious phone call with Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton on Thursday morning, just hours before Mr. Obama’s speech, during which the prime minister reacted angrily to the president’s plan to endorse Israel’s pre-1967 borders for a future Palestinian state.

Obama uses childish and immature methods to try and brow beat his opponents. He tried this with the Supreme Court in a SOTU speech, and he did it with Paul Ryan in a speech on the budget. Basically he tries to bully people from the pulpit – apparently not aware that the nickname should never be taken literally. It is a useless method that simply creates massive resistance in his opposition, burns all bridges for future compromise and aligns more and more people against the head of the Democrat Party. The result of this is the price Israel will demand is going to go up, and the America people will be aligned more closely to the Israeli PM than the US President. Now that kind of screw up takes talent!

And that is the real devastation going on here. Israel does not need our permission to exist or make decisions. All that happened this week is they have realized this President feels the violence driven Palestinians are equal to the Democratic Israelis. He sees no risk in giving into the mass murderers. Yeah, dumb as a rock. But once you know someone is dumb as a rock you are no longer required to take them seriously.

And so our young and awkward President continues to blow out the last of his political capital, all the while exposing a core persona that no one can or will respect.

But he is taking the Democrats down with him. Just like war fatigue and spending sprees nailed a lot of the GOP, Obama’s failures and screw ups are tagging the entire Democrat Party with his foibles. What do people think happened in the massive tidal sweeps in 2010? Nobody felt their future was safe with Democrats in charge. If not for a few inexperienced candidates on the GOP Senate side, the House and Senate would have flipped in a massive repudiation. We know state houses experienced a massive wave.

Finally, after decades of unwavering support to Democrats, the Jewish lobby is beginning to understand the risk they have always played with the Democrats. Just like there are so called Democrat Catholics who never saw the threat from the Atheist, Catholic fearing left, Jewish Democrats are getting a wake up call.

At this rate Obama is going to have fumbled so much on so many fronts that there will almost be no supporters left for him – or his party.

    He is just following the teleprompter and the orders of his handlers. They have an agenda and are sticking to it.

    No one administration could make nearly every decision to the detriment of a country by accident. It is with malice and forethought.

    For an example this is the President who boldly claimed to have 300 economic advisors in his Rolodex. He must be turning a tin ear to them based on his economic record.

    We have enough history now to see patterns and methods and you only have to look for them.

  2. MerlinOS2 says:

    I don’t buy into the incompetent meme so many wish to attribute to him. I see him more as a truly dedicated person who has been massively effective in getting his agenda in place.

    Even if he is tossed to the curb in 2012 it will take a generation or more to even partially reverse or counter all the regulations and other things he has put into place.

    What he has done is toss the goal posts so far left that he now has established a new starting point for the next time the public deems it smart to put a Dem into power again.

  3. TomAnon says:

    I think it is his true self coming out. There was no reason to include Israel in a speech about the “Arab Spring”. When people say things like, “Israel is not the problem; but, …..” it is after the “but” you get at what their true feelings on the matter are.

    This string of missteps just keeps highlighting the fact that no one is really in charge at the WH. They have got to be missing Rahm. At least with Rahm in charge the message was a bit more coherent.

    This guy has pissed on our allies from day won! He returned the Churchill bust to England and gave the Queen and Prime Minister gifts that were not only not serious (could have purchased better in an interstate highway truck stop), but were insulting.

    He coddles our enemies even giving money to Hamas and the Palestinians as he demands Isreal committ suicide.

    He invades a tiny country (Lybia) who had given up on their nuclear ambitions while watching Iran and Syria committ far more hienous crimes against their peoples, their neighbors and the entire free world.

    This is not by accident this guy is a far left Liberal groomed by an American terrorist Bill Ayers and funded by a socialist king maker (Soros) who has a habit of tearing down countries to build his portfolio and his dreams of a one world order.

  5. AJStrata says:

    hunter,

    Sorry, but left wing thinkers are klutzes! They can’t be confused with wise or experienced – that is a given.

  6. kathie says:

    George Soros will always be in Obama’s corner….wait maybe he is writing Obama’s stuff!

  7. dhunter says:

    I hope the traditionally liberal Jewish community stands up to this guy, cuts off their financial support and help vote him out.

    It is obvious that the entrenched fossils in the Repugnantcan Party will not even attempt an investigation much less the well deserved Impeachment of the first 1/2 Black pResident.

    A bunch of panderers and cowards more interested in maintaining their power and perks watch idly as waivers are handed out willy nilly to the very accomplises who rammed Obamacare down our throats but holding the rest of us to the prepousterous rippoff and degredation of our healthcare system.

    As Dennis Miller said last night this guy is corrupt! A complete corrupt fraud who is tearing our country assunder and pitting one country against another.

    Obama said early on “If things turn ugly I will stand with the
    Muslims” so what was anyone expecting?

    The preponderence of circumstantial evidence suggests that
    Obama is a Muslim and only used the Taqqiya of feigning
    Christianity to get elected.

    I do hope the Jewish people finally realize he is not their
    friend.

    President Erkel strikes again.

    Obama and Jimmy Peanuts appear to be in a race to the bottom. Peanuts is not letting the fact that he is no longer in office deter him, as we have seen with his recent “Elders” fiasco in North Korea. Obama, finding himself in a hole, continues to dig furiously. The Democrap party deserves to die; as these two losers show, it has been an albatross around America’s neck for more than 30 years.

  11. WWS says:

    Saw Netanyehu’s comments today – Obama was blindsided.

    The reason why this was a catastrophic error for Obama, *regardless* of whether you think his ideas were correct or not: The only reason the US is involved in these negotiations is because both sides believe that the US has the prestige and power that would influence the other to make concessions that they otherwise would not make. If the US can’t do that, there is no reason for either side to want us to be involved.

    So, what happened: Obama laid out demands that he thought Israel would be bound by, but Netanyehu instantly and publicly said “screw you, we’re not going to do that, and you can’t make us.”

    So now what are the Arab negotiators supposed to do? To save face in the negotiations, they now *HAVE* to refuse any demands the US makes of them, just to show that they are equal to the Israelis. That’s how people react in negotiations.

    And so now the US is in the position of trying to negotiate an agreement in which the only thing both sides agree on is that the US is full of crap and should go pound sand.

    Oh yeah, that strategy worked.

    All you obama voters, happy now? Oh that’s right, he’s not liberal ENOUGH for you. Sick.

    71% of the country is catching on….finally.

  13. crosspatch says:

    “All you obama voters …”

    And … most especially, those Republicans who decided not to cast a ballot last election. Yeah, McCain is a weenie, but not as bad as Obama.

  14. ivehadit says:

    CP, exactly!

  15. lurker9876 says:

    CP, you’re so right. Those that stayed at home could’ve helped McCain and Palin win but then McCain is too much of a progressive. Obama was needed to wake us up.

    Trumka now threatens the Democrats, “Help or Pay”!

    Wow…

    Did you see NRO’s breaking news about the Senate Dem budget? Check the spreadsheet. It’s funny but sad.

    And now we hear that Reid said that they didn’t need to release any 2012 budget.

    Wow….

    And the lefties still support these Dems???

    Question: Did Obama lose the left Jewish vote over his comments about Israel?

  16. dhunter says:

    Apparently Bibi didn’t get the Republican and Presstitute talking points memo that won is to bow down in supplication to every whim of the affirmative action experiment in our Whitehouse.

    Apparently Bibi has had real world experience that idicates country above politics and when your country is on the line you can stand up and call foul without actually being a racist, even though you will be called won anyway.

    When the Demrat delegation in congress turn their back, walks out or sits making faces at Bibis upcoming adddress to them, I hope we have a Republican or two who will stand for their country and our ally Israel and condemn the actions of an over his head liberal ideologe and the pants crease lovers who coddle and condone his childish actions.

    Bravo Bibi we have found a leader!

    Too bad they are in short supply here, subjagated to the whims of the presstitutes and political correctness!

    We have a lot of work to do Patriots if our country is to be saved.

    Don’t count on the Jews abandoning the Democrat party. Regardless of how bad Obama treats Israel, he still heads up the party of Socialism. Israel is a socialist state, propped up by the US. Most Jews are also socialists. Remember, during the 2000 election debacle, it was reported that the Fla. vote count was expected to shift decidedly for the democrat when the “Absentee votes of rich Jews who live in Israel and vote in Fla. were counted.” When I worked the polls we were instructed that anyone who did not live within the precinct was not elligible to vote. Yet Rich Jews living in Israel were allowed to vote in Fla. And they were all expected to vote Democrat. The Democrat Party is the party of Socialism. The vast majority of Jews are socialists. The Democrat party is all they have.
