Didn't vote for him and will vote against him in 2012. I think he's a trainwreck.

Perhaps it would behoove you to actually pay some attention to what people actually SAY for once?

Exactly what part of this don't you grasp?:

I do not agree with Obama that the Israeli Settlements are illegal.

I DO give them credit for vetoing the Resolution even if it wasn't for the above reason.

Again, you'd have to read your own link. No UN resolution is based upon one statement, like "it's illegal" That's a pretty simplistic notion and it never happens. Did you read the entire resolution? Nope.

I'm not surprised. You also like his stance on the Stasi Act.

DAMMIT, the answer to that is IN YOUR LINK!

AND I posted it here IN THIS THREAD.

AND you replied to it.

"taking the issue to the UN will only complicate efforts to resume stalled negotiations between Israel and the Palestinians on a two-state solution."

America does a great job of being Israel's obedient floor mop.

How agreeing with the fact that the settlements are illegal would complicate anything?

By vetoeing the resolution that the settlements are illegal the US disagrees that the settlements are illegal. Jebus on a skateboard, do I really have to explain this?

I've already given you quotes from the article I quoted in the beginning a few posts prior.

WOW! As one here that has argued with Kooblebar on so many issues I lost count I REALLY do not get your statements. You are putting me in the awkward position here to defend his POV but you are dead wrong in your accusation of his loyalties.
