Insider: Obama Raged After Netanyahu Meet
By Wyatt Earp | June 13, 2011
Remember last month’s meeting between Obama and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu? It was the one where Bibi slapped down Obama’s idea to return Israel to its pre-1967 borders. Apparently, the president – already not a fan of Israel – exploded when Netanyahu put him in his place.
They say a picture – like the one above – is worth a thousand words. Sometimes, a few shouted obscenities are worth much more.
Shortly after the photo-op meeting and “working lunch” with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, the one that saw President Obama openly chastised by the Prime Minister for Obama’s earlier public comments regarding wanting to see Israel return to its 1967 borders, the president verbally “went off” on Richard Daley in the private study area that adjoins the Oval Office. President Obama’s verbal attack was clearly heard by numerous staff up and down the West Wing hallways.
The essence of the president’s rage and embarrassment can best be summed up with him yelling out very loudly, “What the f-ck was that!?” That phrase was apparently repeated a number of times in the span of about five minutes, a time period in which Obama’s voice became “louder and louder” and culminating in Obama exclaiming, “Never again! Do you understand me? Never again!” Any response by Bill Daley back to the president was not overheard.
In the past, I have referred to this president as a petulant child. It’s good to know he can throw a tantrum like one. 2012 cannot come here soon enough.

“Never again! Do you understand me? Never again!”
Too bad our illustrious Prez is so ignorant of history. Otherwise, he might have seen the irony in choice of words.
June 13th, 2011 at 12:26 pm
I never understood this from the git-go.
If Israel WAS gonna do this , shouldn’t it have been they that announced it ?
Did the Prez, or one of his staff members actually think if they made this announcement, the Israelis would have no choice but to go along with it ?
If that’s actually what happened, it’s so dumb, it’s scary.

This reminds me of when the Congressman yelled out “You Lie” during Obama’s speech on Obamacare.
Then he apologized.
If the president WAS lying, WHY did he apologize ?
If the President WASN’T lying, WTF did he yell it out for ?

Maybe this is Obama’s interpretation of Bill Maher’s suggestion to go more gangsta’ – have a meltdown and swear like a sailor.
June 13th, 2011 at 1:01 pm
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA..unh, unh..HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA..unh, unh…AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
All the more reason for me to say, yet again, that Benjamin Netanyahu is one of the true leaders of the free world. obambi is not.
June 13th, 2011 at 1:03 pm
Wow. Just…wow. Obie sounds like a spoiled brat kid who needs to be taken out to the wood shed.
June 13th, 2011 at 1:18 pm
Obama is clueless and therefore dangerous when dealing with foreign policy.
June 13th, 2011 at 1:24 pm
“...go more gangsta’…”
Hells bells, man. If that’s the case I’d rather have Ice-T in office instead. At least his wife has big jugs and a big caboose.
June 13th, 2011 at 2:14 pm
Chairman Maobama got it’s feelings hurt! Oh, poor baby. Got the smackdown from mean ole BB…awww.
The jerk deserved it.

You do all realize that (unfortunately or fortunately) he’s going to win in 2012 don’t you?

Ed – He’s too busy duct-taping his head after seeing what this tool has done to our economy.
John D. – Like he cares about Jewish history. Hell, he doesn’t care about Israel’s present!
JT – Because Bibi had the temerity to call him on it. Self-centered people don’t like to be embarrassed.
Ferrell – Bryant Gumbel is more gangsta than this moron.
Jon – No, he isn’t. And he offends our most loyal allies – Israel and Great Britain – at every turn.
GroovyVic – Except no one ever did that. All his life he was told he was special. Now look at us.
Sully – For a “citizen of the world” he certainly has a habit of pissing off other countries.
Piper – Yes, he did. He wants to meddle in Israel’s affairs while he ignores the Syrian massacres.
Randal – I do. I’ve been saying it for months now. Too many people want to vote for him because he’s black, and because it will make themselves feel better. I’m sure you’ll be voting for him again.

Depends on who the other candidate is.
Right now, its not looking good.

Ah Didums did that nasty man make Obambi throw his toys out the pram, Obambi had better be carfull or BiBi might came back and Kick his ass into touch.
June 13th, 2011 at 4:38 pm
JT – If Rick Perry doesn’t run, I like Pawlenty. But it’s still a long time before the election, so who knows?
Ajdshootist – . Perfectly shows the comparisons between the men and how they spent their young adult years.

This is what happens when someone gets pushed up and along all his life by affirmative action. It’s a form of what I would call national nepotism.
The beneficiaries of national nepotism,like Obama, are not qualified and they are no different than the rich guy’s kid who gets all the promotions without earning the promotions.
Thank God though for Obama’s incompetence. It has put a stake in the heart of affirmative action. I predict the next black president we elect will be some kickass briliant grad of the Naval Academy or West Point.
June 13th, 2011 at 6:55 pm
Au contraire, I may not vote for him again; we’ll see. The Republicans had better get their act together because, as of today, you have zero chance.
June 13th, 2011 at 7:00 pm
AJ – He cannot deal with rejection, so when someone like Bibi sets him straight on an issue he knows little about, he throws a fit. It’s sad.
Randal – The fact that you would even connsider voting for this disgrace, his ridiculous spending, the constant lying, and the 9% unemployment boggles my mind. Every single announced GOP contender right now is better than him – although Santorum and Gingrich have no shot. Romney and Pawlenty are head and shoulders better than Obama. Head and shoulders.
June 13th, 2011 at 7:28 pm
You do all realize that (unfortunately or fortunately) he’s going to win in 2012 don’t you?
$4.00+ gas
>9%+ unemployment
30%+ increase in home electricity prices (shut down coal and see how pricey electric gets)
I don’t know what fantasy world you live in but those facts alone are gonna chrush the jug eared wonderchild…..
Whoever runs against Obambi will win, it does not matter who we run they will win, that being said I intend to try and make my choice for the most conservative candidate I can get……

ThomasF – I was with you until you put up Palin. I like her, but . . .
1. She’s not gonna run.
2. She can’t win because she won’t attract independents.
June 13th, 2011 at 11:04 pm
Palin v. Obama: who are you voting for?
June 13th, 2011 at 11:58 pm
I’ll say it again, “It does not matter who we put up against the big ‘O’”, The Republicans will win……,
June 14th, 2011 at 12:06 am
Randal – She’d never get the nomination, but I’d vote for Palin. I think Obama has done way too much damage to this country – I’ll take my chances with her.
ThomasF – And I hope you’re right, but I don’t put a lot of trust in the American voter. Even with all of the misery – economy, unemployment, 3+ wars, etc – the man still has a 40-50% approval rating. And people will vote for Obama because they “like” him better – as if POTUS should be an episode of American Idol.
June 14th, 2011 at 12:27 am
I think it’s either gonna be Romney (cause of the money) or Pawlenty (cause of his record -8 straight years as governor of MN and a balanced budget each year is pretty impressive.
I do like Pawlenty quite a bit at this point, but it is early.
BUT Pawlenty heard Obama say he modeled ObamaCare after Romney Care and Pawlenty said he wants to repeal ObamnyCare!!!
But Pawlenty will need to show well right outta the gate to raise the money to keep going.

You know, I’m serious here… I think we may be close to Obama saying something about the “Jews being responsible for the majority of all wars” here or something.
Yeah, it sounds crazy. (And stupid. Go figure. Look who’s making this comment…)
But… he is damned thin skinned. And although to be fair to the man, I haven’t heard any overt or implied anti-semitism in him.
But I think he might let something fly here. If he gets tweaked or punked by the Israeli’s again… I think you might here some actual anti-semitic remarks from him.
Remember Hilary and her “Jew-bastard” tirade?
I think Obama might just do something similar.
Which of course will immediately be swept under the rug by our media betters and never see the light of day.

Hell, I’d vote for Randal Graves before I voted for Obama.
So you got that going for ya Randal…
June 14th, 2011 at 4:32 am
Quite a few past Presidents were not considered favorites early on in their campaigns. On both sides of the aisle.
Too early to tell.
June 14th, 2011 at 7:47 am
ANY one I watched last night in the NH debate would be a better Prez than Patty O’Bama

This is my point I’d vote for Randal over Obama…..
What would it take to get you to vote for the big ZERO……
Obama vs Pelosi
Obama vs Schumer
Obama vs Durbin
Obama vs Biden

As a liberal Republican, I can see the independent side:
Sarah Palin, please go the f%&k away
Huckabee, not a chance
Romney, will this country elect a Mormon? unlikely…Romney care will be the sword of Damacles for Romney.
Pawlenty, maybe…
Unfortunately, at present, there is NO candidate that will beat the incumbent :+(
End of political rant…
