It’s all about the money, he’s been bought. As a Chicago politician he sees nothing wrong with this, nor cheating and lies, all the way to the White House. If you were dumb enough to vote for him, you deserve what’s coming. I only hope it’s bad enough to break the Democrat party once and for all.

Scott, that first hotlink you provided predates Obama’s infamous first press conference, where he elicited a not so pleased response from Iran by repeating the Bush philosophy on no talks until they cooperate with the IAEA on the nuke program, and stop supporting terrorists (including, but not limited to Hezbollah). That was, in my opinion, Obama’s first foreign policy “gaffe” for his faithful… but certainly pleased me to see his was going to continue the Bush policy despite his campaign rhetoric.

The second VOA story about Khaled Mashaal seems to indicated this guy is out of the loop…. since according to the quotes from Ismail Haniyeh’s political advisor in my post above, they’ve been doing plenty of cyber chatting, as well as a personal “secret” meeting already.

I’ll be they look forward to talking with them. What irritates me is that Obama is apparently seeking them out first, prior to holding the equivalent with our ally there, Israel. This is as bad as when the Pakistan President came to the UN, McCain and Palin went to personally meet and greet our allies there, and Obama could only muster a phone call.

Time will tell if Obama pays more courtesy to our enemies than our allies. But he has not impressed me in the past, and thus far isn’t doing much to change my mind. But then, the guy still isn’t our POTUS. I shall give him time when he genuinely holds the reins. But his Prez-elect period might be giving us some indication as to how he plans to structure his foreign policy… and with whom he places priority for diplomatic chats. I suggest he pay some attention to our allies before he starts holding secret meetings with our enemies.

Tony Blair says he’s been talking with Obama about the problem-

On BBC Radio 4′s the World this Weekend he said he had spoken regularly to Mr Obama over recent months about the situation in the Middle East, where Mr Blair is an envoy for the “quartet” of the US, Russia, the EU and the UN.

If he’s talking to Blair, who else is he discussing policy with? And why is he doing this before he’s been sworn in as President- heck, before he’d even won the election?

I’ve got a hunch on what’s going on with this, but not really sure if it’s time to run with it yet. It has to do with the Zionist messianic portrait being painted of him by his cultists. I latched onto it while perusing the book of Zechariah the last few days, but I’m not sure if this is the thread to go into it and there’s still a couple of things that I’m looking into. I’ll check back here with a link to that other FA thread if I decide to post it there.

None of this surprises me. Anyone who really thought that politicians actually FIRE wrongdoers has not been around long enough to see this game played over and over again. The only difference here is an anti-American will be in the White House, one who apparently is determined to a) get more of us killed with a pacifist approach to every enemy and b) stamp out our American individuality.

I do believe that there is going to be intense buyers remorse on the part of many and not too long after the new administration comes in. Those who paid to put that administration in place are already demanding their pound of flesh….and the pressure will mount.

Also he has been in contact with Canada about NAFTA. Surely, surely this involves the Hatch Act. However, Obama is going to skate on all his crimes. I would say he is impeachment stuff right now. High crimes and misdemeanors you know.

Also don’t forget his trying to delay the treaty with Iraq. This guy has acted as if he was the president all during his campaign. Now he is acting like he already the president and the media (may they roast in hell) are abetting him. These dumb countries are entreating him for their policies. I’ve got news for him and them. He won’t BE president until Jan.20, 2009 no matter how much he spouts off his rhetoricand he won’t be making any decision about anything happening until thenm. Then God help us.

FARC anybody? We already know his people have been in contact with them. Poor Columbia. They are screwed. Fascists and comunists all around them and the US deserts them. In fact, I would say all the countries we have allied with are screwed. Look at Georgia, Ukraine and Poland. Maybe Obama’s idea is to destroy the world and rebuild it from ashes. That is the communist mantra, is it not? That also might be his idea to change the world with himself as Herr Fuhrer. The Europeans jus might regret his being elected as much as we do.

I’m not surprised by this at all. I can’t wait to see what other things unfold in thext months.

BTW, great blog that you have here. I was wondering if you were willing to add my blog to your blog roll if I was willing to add you? Let me know.
