ISRAEL LOBBY AND LEIBERMAN NEO-LIBS HAVE STARTED OBAMAS OBEDIENCE TRAINING
The desperate Leiberman Neo-Libs and Jewish Lobby have evidently started obedience training on Obama. An all consuming obsession with Israel’s survival is the first step in his political enslavement. The risk for Obama is that the Kennedy Democrats will disown him; and the risk for the Judeofascists, being notorious haters of the Christian and Muslim cultures, is that Obama will lead a revolt against them.

ISLAMOFASCIST AND JUDEOFASCIST SYMBIOSIS

The Islamofascists, in perpetual quest of greater wealth and power, rant to incite the impoverished Islamic peoples to violence against the notorious injustices of the powerful Judeofascist land robbers. The Judeofascists, in perpetual quest for greater wealth and power, wail and lobby to incite the American People into providing military protection against this persecution by outraged Islamofascists. To add credibility to these incessant rantings and wailings, intermittent battles are performed. The result is that these clever Islamofascists and Judeofascists do gain great wealth and power, at the expense of the Arab, Persian, and American peoples.

The great sacrifice of the wealth and blood of the American People on behalf Israel is all that perpetuates this destructive symbiotic relationship between the Islamofascists and the Judeofascists. But when, in the normal course of the American Cultural War, the Neo-Cons/Neo-Libs are finally expelled by the Reagan Conservatives and Kennedy Liberals from their positions of power, the economic and military support for the Judeofascists will finally end; and that will end the support for the Islamofascists. The end of the era of Neo-Con/Neo-Lib military intervention in the affairs of the Arab and Persian peoples shall be the start of an era of constructive relations with the American People.

The Judeofascists, who live in a glass house surrounded by Islamofascists, could continue to fight for survival militarily, until nuclear armed Israel finally becomes the site of Holocaust II; or, they could resort to land reparations and diplomacy, to finally win for themselves by just and peaceful means, what they cannot win by unjust and violent means. Shall the World be cheering, and the Diaspora wailing; or, shall the World and the Diaspora be cheering?

Lance, he said that in 2004.

Three years ago.

In three years opinions can change and insights can be gained. It would be one thing if Obama had said that a few months ago, or even last year. But three years is an entirely different story.

geopoliticalrooster is right, this is more like a game of gotcha than an honest examination of an issue.

What is out of context? You can read the Chicago Tribune article for yourself. It may be sugar coated a little but what I put in here is exactly what he said in 2004.

It’s a bad idea to pull quotes out of context for political purpose. Politicians do it enough. As we attempt to sort through the politicians, we should try to present and debate the facts. Doing otherwise puts us at odds when we otherwise might not be.

Um, if by “several months” you mean three years ago, then yes, Obama thinks we should attack Iran.
