The democratic party is not as unified as they would have you believe. Behind their deceitful mask of solidarity is a party rife with factionalism. And just as the Soviets of the past used powerful figures to keep everyone in line, so it is with the democrats.

Great! “Honest Obe” will end up getting his ass shot off for his trouble leaving us with the prospect of “Plugs” Biden as POTUS. Then the only thing to trump that would be jumping Pelosi to the VP slot, once again by-passing HRC in the line of succession.

They’ll wind up killing each other off if we’re not careful.

You can’t negotiate with bullies nor terrorists because they only view such gestures on your part as pure spinelessness. Not to mention the extreme contempt they hold for such appeasers. Trying to negotiate with Hamas is like trying to reason with a hungry lion after it’s clamped it’s jaws around your neck. The only thing Hamas has a healthy respect for is a strong show of force

“Until I take office, it would be imprudent of me to start sending out signals that somehow we are running foreign policy when I am not legally authorised to do so.”

Does anyone believe that he isn’t wise to what “sources close to the transition team say”? He’s reassuring Zawahiri and Hamas since they don’t seem to have the patience to wait 10 more days.

Hamas is very clear on their part – nothing but the death of Israel will do. It’s not about diplomacy but about the US, under Obama, switching sides.

The only thing I can appreciate about Obama is his sense of urgency. I’m so sick of decades of cowardly gradualism and would prefer to get this BS over.

Remember the old commercial “this is your brain, this is your brain on drugs”? We need to make a new one only substitute “Drugs” for “Obama presidency” .

So it is illegal to give aid to Hamas, so we wait until after their first set of negotiations and anything offered either in trade or just to get Hamas to the table should fall under “high crimes and misdemeanors” right?

Well, now we know why Hamas wanted the cease-fire. We also know why Israel hasn’t stopped.

And since when was talking to terrorists a “new foreign policy”? Or “productive”? Stage left to Madeline Albright, Bill Clinton and Jimmy Carter.
