Obama doesn't speak for me on Israel
This 'whole situation' irks me.
Obama has shown his 'disdain' for our only ally in the Mideast and his hatred for Netanyahu. This bothers me because Obama may be the president but he does not speak for me (and many others).
The Constitution states "We the People." As far as I'm concerned, the president works for the people, not vice versa. I have polled informally some 20 of my neighbors. Of those 20, all but one are for Israel and Netanyahu. That is 95 percent.
Because Obama is against Netanyahu, we are supposed to follow suit? That is not the case. This is America. Israel is our only ally in that area of the world. They should be treated as such.
Granted, I live in a conservative area, but I am willing to bet a vast majority of the people are united with Israel on this subject.
Why does Obama continuously kowtow to the people who want to exterminate us? I hope we can last these last couple of years.
