Obama promises to be a friend of Israel

But his pastor sounds more like a friend of Ahmadinejad:

 

 

"Israel" is a "dirty word?"

According to Loopy Dictator President Gilligan Ahmadinejad, Israel is "filthy bacteria."

Hmmm....

Senator Barack Obama, Prophet of the new Post-Racial Politics of Change and Hope, claims he supports a strong, close relationship with Israel. At one point, his web site proclaims:

Barack Obama strongly supports the U.S.-Israel relationship, believes that our first and incontrovertible commitment in the Middle East must be to the security of Israel, America's strongest ally in the Middle East. Obama supports this closeness, stating that that the United States would never distance itself from Israel.

Yet his minister of twenty years, the man Obama has said keeps his priorities straight and his moral compass calibrated, who performed the Obamas' wedding and baptized their children, has described this "strongest ally" as a "dirty word."

That's something that would draw applause in Tehran.

I'd really like to hear Obama explain this at donor parties in New York and Hollywood. Heck, I want to see how he tries to cover his rear in today's speech.

And I bet Hillary is still smiling.
