I wouldn't be surprised if we lost Israel as an ally. While girl scout cookies may be kosher, he really shows a lack of understanding of diplomacy by not talking to Netanyahu about this first.

Surely Obama would not stoop this low for cheap political advantage, all the while endangering America's heroes-in-arms?

Please, he likes one thing and it is a way for people to hate him. Why? Because the Right Wing don't have an actual argument as to why he should not be President.

Bush caused debt due to 2 wars (one being illegal) and the extreme amount of money being poured into defence. If Defence was cut, there would be more money to spare for other responsibilities for the tax payer.

The USA needs to become more Mixed-Market Economy, cut defence, invest in some form of mixed universal and private health care, pull out of the Middle East, and allow Presidents enough time to sort problems of predecessors out before saying 'oh he has not done anything.'

Just because Obama does not have cameras on him all the time, like Bush did, doe not mean to say he is not in touch with the American population. He simply wants to deal with issues without getting distracted by the press. And even if he was to have cameras in his life like Bush did, he would still get complaints.

Obama is doing all what he can to help the people, which is more that can be said for Bush.

Obama is imprisoning conservatives in FEMA camps with comparable conditions to gitmo
Obamacare is attempting to euthanize the elderly, who vote conservative
