Daniel Halper has called attention to Nancy Pelosi's remarkable interview with Al Hunt on the topic of Barack Obama and Israel. I'd note one comment in particular: Pelosi's claim that President Obama "has been there [Israel] over and over again.
Wow. I'm involved with the Emergency Committee for Israel. We have an ad up in several states calling attention to the fact that President Obama, who's been quite the world traveler, has never visited Israel as president. Did we make a terrible mistake? Were we unjust to President Obama? Do we have to pull down the ad?
I suppose that having been somewhere twice is "over and over" if you're not familiar with what the term "over and over" is generally intended to mean. For me it's too much of a reach and Barry has never gone to Israel while he has been POTUS.
I can explain it to you but I can't understand it for you.

Did she say he had been there as President over and over?
I heard a lot of complaints about Obama's frequent trips abroad...Was it just his choice of countries that got you righties upset? Would there have been no complaints if Israel had been his destination?
archer, your position on this topic is interesting in an odd way. Name the countries in the region that are allies of the US. Let me help you, ISRAEL, UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and maybe Iraq depending of who's in charge at the moment. With Iran working on nukes and rattling their sabers threatening to shutdown the Straights of Hormuz and Syria's government failing putting chemical and biological weapons at risk, Israel poised to conduct preemptive strikes. In a part of the world as volatile as the Middle East, don't you think it would be a good idea to visit your allies if you happened to be POTUS or is that strictly the job of the Secretary of State and the State Department?

Nope. You posted what you wanted to say on the matter; we disagree. I'm ok with that.

Hanging around Uncle Joe must be contagious, why would any Democrat say something that is patently untrue? Oh wait, they are Democrats, lying is a reflex. Still, it makes me wonder who's side Uncle Joe and Nancy are really on.

archer wrote: I took no position...I simply asked a couple questions. Would you care to tell me what my position is?
I could, but I won't. You can read it at the link contained in the OP.
Really? the link does NOT state my position, but Toad seems to think he knows what my position is.
It sure seems like the righties here spend a lot of time trying to tell the lefties what the lefties are thinking......more often than not they are wrong.
