Responding to an Israeli reporter’s question Wednesday on his commitment to protect the Jewish state, Barack Obama pointed to a bill “we passed” in the U.S. Senate Banking Committee that tightens sanctions and authorizes divestment from Iran. “My committee,” he called it.
Except that he isn’t a member of the Committee on Banking, Housing and Urban Affairs.
“Just this past week, we passed out of the U.S. Senate Banking Committee - which is my committee - a bill to call for divestment from Iran as way of ratcheting up the pressure to ensure that they don’t obtain a nuclear weapon,” Obama said at a press conference in Sderot, Israel.
In a press release from Obama’s Senate office the day the committee passed the Comprehensive Iran Sanctions, Accountability and Divestment Act, Obama applauded its passage and pointed to provisions included that he had offered in the Iran Sanctions Enabling Act of 2007

He is an American politician and thinks that no one has kept a record of his remarks and that he doesn't have to be perfect nor truthful, just electable... sorry, we don't get the best folks for the job around here and the remainder of the country has to pick up the slack.
He sickens me! The sooner we're done with him, the better.
Obama is worse than Neville Chamberlain. (1) Chamberlain did not pretend that his policy was something other than appeasement, and (2) Chamberlain did not have his own example from which to learn.
