#1 Obama will be so full of himself after this health care vote he wont listen to a single thing Netanyahu has to say.

#2 There will be war again in the ME, because Iran and its proxies smell weakness by the US. Obama has pushed Israel under the bus. Israel sees an existential threat and cannot back down on this one. The deck of Obama cards will come down. It is going to get ugly on all fronts.

#3 Netanyahu knows Soetoro will do nothing about Iran. This visit will be an opportunity for Netanyahu to make one last plea for bunker busters bombs, refuelers, and permission for Iraqi overflights. He'll get none of it. Israel will go it alone and if escalates we'll have a nuclear war in the ME. This may very well be the crisis which suspends the November elections.

Here? Get serious. If we can have elections in a civil war we can have one when the Israelis and Arabs or Persians have yet another war. It may well prove to be the equivalent of the assassination of an Austro-Hungarian archduke, but we'll still have elections.

#6 Here? Get serious. Nimble Semple.

Serious eh? When 52% voted for a muslim sympathizing liberation theologist, and socialist and over 40% still agree with his presidential policies, how much more "serious" would you like to get?

#7 I hope Netanyahu "speaks harshly" to Obama. Not that he'll listen.

#8 No, no Deacon, I hope Netanyahu chuckles at him softly and shakes his head.

See if you can work some Affrikaner homewords into that.

Shark has been jumped. Kookery wins. Black heliooocpters will out, Jolly John Birchers grab the controls of 7% of the population. Thanks.

#10 Careful Shipman. You may get to be like Joseph M. and need an interpreter.

#11 I doubt if even the Dems are suicidal enough to try something with the November election - we had valid elections throughout the Civil War, Confederate states' elections were simply ignored as invalid. Any attempt at stopping elections would be viewed by a majority of the public as a coup de etat and would NOT be supported by the American military.

#12 And I am including the vast majority of the National Guard in that military category : simply refusing to obey an illegal order would shutdown any Governor trying to enforce said coup.
