On another note, how did you like the response Obama got from those
peace loving Hamas friends or yours? Obama made a statement that the
Palestinians must stop firing rockets at Israel and Israel must
complete it's troop withdrawl from Gaza. Seems pretty reasonable to
me. The response from Hamas was swift. They said Obama is
following Bush and is destined to another 4 years of failure in the
Middle East. That despite the fact that Obama spent the last year
going out of his way to try to be nice to them and kiss their
asses. Gee, what a swell bunch of reasonable, decent, peace loving
folks.

He's trying.

His very first call to a foreign leader as president was to a dude named
Mahmoud. Three of his first four calls were to tacit supporters of
terrorists (Palestinian Authority, presidents of Syria and Egypt).
Evidently, the line to Hamas was "Not a working number."
