Obama is already playing Clintonian games… and he started with his speech at AIPAC. He told the Jewish lobby :

“Jerusalem will remain the capital of Israel, and it must remain undivided,” Obama declared Wednesday, to rousing applause from the 7,000-plus attendees at the American Israel Public Affairs Committee policy conference.

but now..

But a campaign adviser clarified Thursday that Obama believes “Jerusalem is a final status issue, which means it has to be negotiated between the two parties” as part of “an agreement that they both can live with.”

“Two principles should apply to any outcome,” which the adviser gave as: “Jerusalem remains Israel’s capital and it’s not going to be divided by barbed wire and checkpoints as it was in 1948-1967.”

Gcotharn nails it.

The question is what Obama will do when he runs out of people to jettison: invoke multiple personality disorder, and claim he doesn’t know this Obama?

The funny part is that on one hand he claims to be unaware of the character of people he’s known for decades, but on the other, asks us to trust our lives to the assessment he makes of, e.g. Ahmadinnerjacket, in a matter of minutes or hours.

No, thanks.

gcotharn,

I rarely smile at the mention of Michelle (Obama, of course)
– or these days, the name Obama at all for that matter.
But your comment enticed a really good laugh. Thanks!

Loved that new version of Johnny I Hardly Knew Ye. Here is the version of the song that I knew from my childhood, with Tommy Makem and the Clancy Brothers .

Fabulous. Now you just have to have someone record it.

I loved the video of the old Irishman for all he was worth a great song.

gcotharn: I was going to add a Michelle verse. But I’m waiting.

Your rendition is a thousand times better, neo. Oh Bill Ayers — what a complete and total scum-of-the-earth-bag!

One imagines:

This Michelle Obama is not the Michelle Obama I know.

We’ve just been working so hard, and so separately, in the years since the kids were born. In those years, she has morphed into a person I do not now recognize. I am shocked, shocked to find such anger in her – such a sense she has been victimized by others. I did not have intellectual relations with that woman, Michelle Obama, as least since 2001.
