She's totally correct. It is a breach of protocol, and it does make things worse in terms of our global standing and that we're not acting as a nation, with one voice, about the most dangerous nation in the world: Iran. The fact that the person speaking is the Israeli Prime Minister makes it a soft landing. The Republicans needed to make a move against Obama. I just wish they'd have chose a different dimension for counterattack. Iran is a serious menace in just about every foreign policy consideration. <br /><br />With all that said, I hope we see the heart of the story: no one trusts Obama. This is what happens when a political actor behaves like a petulant child. Obama brought this on himself because he is rude, caustic, dishonest and remarkably thin-skinned. He is not a sympathetic figure here, and nobody listens to Pelosi anymore anyway. This "snub" is totally self-inflicted, yet we know Obama and his chatterers will make him into a victim. Life is do unfair for Obama. Boo-hoo. <br /><br />I'm not looking forward to two years of a narcissistic, antisocial, entitled lame duck president who says he's going "on offense." Doesn't sound like someone who has the good of the country in the forefront of his mind.Ignatius Acton Chesterton OCDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18222603717128565302noreply@blogger.com
