How dare he speak out on the Iranian nuclear threat!
On Thursday the Obama White House said they would not meet with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu because they wanted to “avoid the appearance of influencing a democratic election in a foreign country.”
The Israeli elections are two weeks after Netanyahu is set to address a joint session of Congress.
On Friday an Obama administration official told reporters Netanyahu “spat in our face.” The Times of Israel reported:
The White House’s outrage over Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s plan to speak before Congress in March — a move he failed to coordinate with the administration — began to seep through the diplomatic cracks on Friday, with officials telling Haaretz the Israeli leader had “spat” in President Barack Obama’s face.
“We thought we’ve seen everything,” the newspaper quoted an unnamed senior US official as saying. “But Bibi managed to surprise even us.
“There are things you simply don’t do. He spat in our face publicly and that’s no way to behave. Netanyahu ought to remember that President Obama has a year and a half left to his presidency, and that there will be a price,” he said.
So much for not influencing a foreign election, huh? (2 images)

Really? Were was David Cameron last week? Oh, at the WH. And guess what Cameron did while here.
"Standing side by side with Cameron at the White House, Obama said world powers would be sympathetic to Iran and would blame the U.S. if Congress moved ahead with more sanctions while fragile negotiations are under way. In an unusual move by a foreign leader, British Prime Minister David Cameron said he was personally calling U.S. senators to say that new sanctions would drive a wedge through international unity.
What is happening in the U.K. in a few months? Wait for it..................why a general election of course.
Just when you think that Obama cannot be more dishonest he just keeps amazing you.

At least I'm not traumatized by being torn between posting to out damned spot or OUT DAMNED SPOT.
Bibi is a smart cookie. He's playing a game with Obama and his own re-election. Boehner is playing along with AIPAC.
