There they go again.

Palestinian roots for Israel against Hamas:

It's a strange world, but there you have it. I've been talking to friends of mine, former Palestinian Authority intelligence officials (ejected from power by the Hamas coup), and they tell me that not only are they rooting for the Israelis to decimate Hamas, but that Fatah has actually been assisting the Israelis with targeting information. One of my friends -- if you want to know why they're my friends, read this book -- told me that one of his comrades was thrown off a high-rise building in Gaza City last year by Hamas, and so he sheds no tears for the Hamas dead. "Let the Israelis kill them," he said. "They've brought only trouble for my people."

McKinney called on President-elect Obama to address the Gaza crisis, saying the weapons being used by Israel were supplied by the United States.

*underline mine* lol - She doesn't even care what Bush, the sitting president, has to say. She wants Obama to say something. What's he gonna say? "I'll look into it in 3 weeks"

McCarthy added that it’s also time “for President-elect Obama to start acting on the promises he made to the LGBT community during his campaign so that he doesn’t go down in history as another Bill Clinton, a sweet-talking swindler who would throw us under the bus for the sake of political expediency.”

*Bold mine.

This article brings up some really good points and a note of caution that Obama may already be starting to waffle, backpeddle or modify some of his pre-election stances.

Rep. Frank: Obama 'Overestimates' Ability to Unify

That has been in the past two days. Because you are emphasising certain parts of the articles, you seem to be making a statement against Obama and with your past complaining of people doing the same against Bush, it would be natural to assume the sides are now switched. You called people out on it before, people have have been called out in the past for posting numerous threads to make a statement against something (rzkenrage for example), and now it seems you might be getting into it.

I don't care if you are anti-Obama, I am myself, but when you start bolding or underlining articles to make a statement against someone, it really seems you are trying to make a personal point and when you string a bunch of those together all with a common purpose, it seems like you are posting the articles just to make that single point.

You do realize America ALREADY has a president? One who should be taking some sort of stand against this atrocity? But hes too busy looking for reasons to create propaganda and attack another country (Iran, if you haven't already guessed). Obama is not to be a scapegoat, take a look at what Bush is doing right now and see hes already planned to leave Obama with a shaky platform to take come January.

This guy is a complete fraud who is in way over his head! And what is this nonsense about there being only one president at a time? That never kept him from voicing his opinion(s) in the past. Let's face facts! This man was obsessed with becoming president not being president.

Maybe you did innocently put those two quotes together but since the second really seems to counter the first quote, and with the way you have been posting in the last two days, it would seem more likely that you wanted to emphasis "This man was obsessed with becoming president not being president", which would fit well with the your string of articles the last two days, and not just give two opposing viewpoints.

That is where my statement came from. I said that Obama is playing the public perception game so he will naturally stay out of this issue to counter the argument I got from your post.

The other two lines were more aggressive, maybe too aggressive, but if you are making a crusade against Obama, just admit it and create an anti-Obama thread. If not, I apologize.

Well lets see -
#1) I supported Obama in the first quote - I certainly did not disparage him at all I thought SHE acted like an idiot not him.

#2) I posted something from Barney Frank - and mentioned a note of caution. WTF? That all you got?

#3 & #4 are specific quotes representing two different sides of the same issue. - NEITHER ONE IS MINE!

Read what I actually wrote: " Amazing how we can look at the same situation and come away with totally different views of it. Guess we see what we want to see."

You are a very smart young man, but you are/were way off base here.

Apology accepted - lets just move on. No harm no foul.
