He looked uncomfortable and out of place at the sacred wall. Wish someone who’s good at Photoshop would add a propeller to that beanie cap. I know, it’s a yahmaka.

Ever hear of a thing called “political science”?

Okay, dunderhead, I’ll give you a quick answer: Israel is the only true western style democracy in the Middle East. Seems reasonable to support those types of governments because they are stable. The ME is and always have been an unstable region, therefore, it behooves us to support and ally with those types of governents which are similar to our own. Similar interests make political bedfellows.

Now that’s the second stupid question you’ve asked today. You’re past your quota. Remove thumb from your mouth and pick up a book to read.

There was exactly one heckler.

Only one heckler, but he shouted the same thing over and over again. The crowd did not shout the heckler down, so they must have sympathized with his view. Obama was struck by the heckling, saying the scene was "rowdy," and that he had expected "more reverence." A picture is worth a thousand words, and you were not there to paint it.

Obama heckled at Western Wall…

Not everyone here is fooled by the shifty senator. The Times of London (via Michelle Malkin) tells that there was some negative reaction to his visit:…

Since this is an open thread:

Isn’t this a little odd? Barack Hussein Obama took a three week tour of Pakistan while in college. Maybe it was like the trips the Muslim college students were taking to Afghanistan before we invaded?

Barack Hussein Obama, scarier and scarier, the more we get to know him.

Why doesn’t Obama run for a seat on the Knesset, or perhaps for the presidency of the EU? Good grief, he’s so popular (according to Brian Williams) he could single-handedly solve all the problems in the EU and the Middle East…then bring all that “experience” home to the US and save us all.

I have more foreign experience than this phony.

I haven’t heard much from Michelle Obama recently. Is she gagged and tied in the Obasement? She’s like Tim Matheson’s fat brother Chris Farley in “Black Sheep.”

A German poll found 76 percent of Germans would vote for Obama. European bands and DJs will warm up the crowd before Obama takes the stage at about 1:15 p.m. Washington time. Signs and banners are not permitted, so Che will not make a bold appearance and the pre-revolution will not be televised.

BHO’s world tour reminds me of a so-so rock band or a rap group,sometimes they are a little out of tune.

the Europeans are just sooo sophisticated.

They are becoming more enlightened on such international norms as shiria, jihad, burkas, beheadings, female mutilation, stonings, harems and all sorts of neat moon god things. That along with their once a week bathing and $10. a gallon gasoline and I guess our nimrods are envious.
I do remember the Euro trash TOLD us not to vote for Reagan. I imagine the nimrods didn’t.

We should have quit Europe three weeks after the Berlin Wall came down.
