Ah.....the year is only 5 days old and Henry Kissinger just mumbled the magic words - New World Order. He said that Obama is in a position to create it, thanks to all the global good will he is receiving.
It wouldn't help anyone to have a president-elect starting a contriversy about the current chain of command of government. Bush is accountible for his administration, not Obama. Obama's starts noon, eastern time on the 20th of this month.
I support him not muddying the waters, I still remember how deep and lasting a problem Clinton had when he didn't chose his battles wisely upon assuming the presidency in regards to the gays in the military question, even though he was right; gays and lesbians should not be discriminated against.
If Obama does not turn the screws on Israel upon assuming the presidency, this is a different matter. At the very least, the Israelis need a bit of tough love delivered to them.
In the form of a deminishment or ceasing of support politically, and in terms of aid provided them.
They are very wrong in this invasion of Gaza. It won't end the problems they want it to. It will exaerbate and expand it.
No. Because he has made it plain in past statements he has a different take on problems in this part of the world then Bush did.
I would be troubled only had he spoken up and created a contriversy regarding the President-elect acting like he was the current POTUS.
A large part of the reason I like Barack Obama is he has been good at avoiding such pratfalls.
Had he spoken out and created a contriversy that would delay or make harder dealing with the situation there when he is actually in the position to make a real difference, then and only then would he create concern for me in regards to this.
Yeah well, while Gaza is being genocided, we can observe protocol and wait until inauguration day and see what's left if anything to make a statement about. Fait accompli.
He will be president in just over two weeks. The disgusting apartheid-like system of the Zionist fanatics and it's diametrical opposite, the Islamic fundie that thinks all the world should become Islamic or die have fed and norished each other's blind hatred and intolerences for decades.
It has blighted and hurt everyone else there between their opposing poles of the political spectrum in that part of the world a long time. Waiting two weeks until he is in power sure gives you a smal head of a pin to dance on to support your lament about the President-elect. Really, it would behoove you to wait until 20 January 2009 before condemning Obama for caution about what he says or does as president-elect.
Let's see what he says or does when he takes office. It will mean a world of difference more then what a president-elect says.
Especially one a wounded GOP is spoiling to get into a fight with right at the start of his term of office.

What choice is there at this juncture?
And what dang difference does it make anyway?? It's only two weeks.
Obama has been spouting forth on a wide variety of other issues. But Israeli barbarity gets the O'silent treatment.
