Late on Friday The Washington Times’ Christian Bourge obtained a copy of Presidential Determination 2009-19, latest in a series of pro forma memos to the Secretary of State entitled “Suspension of Limitations Under the Jerusalem Embassy Act.” This determination is a legally required waiver under said act to continue to delay the May 31, 1999 deadline for moving the U.S. Embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.  

Nearly identical memos like this have been issued every six months for the last decade. Standard procedure, no big deal, right? Well in the Bush years the memo contained the sentence,

“My Administration remains committed to beginning the process of moving our embassy to Jerusalem.”

The Obama team has edited that passage out. This explains the Friday evening release. Congress should revisit the Jerusalem Embassy Act and remove the loophole that has allowed this charade to continue for ten years. Meanwhile the president should explain exactly what his policy is on this issue, and why he is not committed to beginning the process of moving the embassy.

More proof that our anti-Israel president is planning on dividing Israel’s Holy City to hand out to a mythical people. Hooray.

During one of his addresses, President Obama jokingly referred to the “recovery” package by saying “It’s not going to be perfect,” and with a tongue-in-cheek grin said, “Afterall, it is coming out of Washington and through Congress.” A laughing crowd smirked and fell at his feet in his attempt to distance himself from something he knows the majority of Amerians DO NOT support. I have to say, I’m still amazed at the amount of Obama-worship going on in this nation and in this world!

It is important to know that while Pelosi did write the content of this bill, the Washington to which he refers and the Congress he jokes about is his Washington and a Congress full of his friends. Do not let him fool you that he is not connected to the reprehensible politics of Washington- he is the Godfather of all that’s wrong with that city at this point.

And what right does he have to say, “It’s not going to be perfect.” Do we, as Americans, not have a right to a perfect trillion dollar package. We have all bought an item of clothing, only to bring it home to find a hole in the stitching on the side. Do we just shrug our shoulders, realizing that, while we just spent $20 on the shirt, we must now suck it up? No! We take that receipt and head back to the store, expecting a refund or an exchange for a shirt without blemish.

So, if and when we see the imperfections to which Obama is referencing, can we insist on a refund? If that’s the case, then I for one would like a $350 billion dollar refund from the banks that we bailed out. They are far from unblemished and I am not a fan of paying for things that come broken.

How about a refund from Detroit? Our government is treating this failed market like an animal pound. These “animals” come broken and carrying baggage. And for a cerain amount of money, we can “buy” these broken, unwanted companies, retrain them, and expect a full, energetic life out of them. If only someone would have pity on their sad little faces, staring back at them from the bankruptcy glass.

I’m sorry, but it doesn’t work that way. The truth is that these “animals” are sitting in a cage for a reason. Perhaps they were poorly trained from the beginning, perhaps they crap in people’s paths, perhaps they don’t listen when someone is trying to get their attention, but no amount of money poured into these mangy mutts will change the reality that they just stink.

By the time elections roll back around, we will have only spent 40% of the money. That is just enough time to open people’s eyes to bring logic and reason back into leadership roles, and enough time to save the other 60% of our money. And while we will have stepped into the largest debt our country has ever aqcuired, the fat lady hasn’t yet sung. We have to start getting the word out about defeating these socialist idealogues in the name of preserving our fiscal responsibility.
