Supporters of Israel, already smarting from Barack Obama's associations with Jeremiah Wright, Rashid Khalidi, and Zbigniew Brzezinski (among others), are beginning to breathe sighs of relief about Sarah Palin's joining John McCain on the GOP ticket. She has been smeared as a Pat Buchannanite, to which the McCain campaign has responded:

Of the many smears against Governor Palin now being circulated by left-wing bloggers and amplified by the national media, only one seems to have been directly picked up by the Obama campaign and its surrogates--that Governor Palin was once a supporter of Pat Buchanan, and that she is therefore a Nazi sympathizer.

The first attack came from Obama surrogate Rep. Robert Wexler, the co-chair of Obama's campaign in Florida. Wexler, badly mangling his facts, accused Governor Palin of supporting Pat Buchanan in the 2000 Alaska primary. Based on this he asserted that Governor Palin had "aligned herself with a leading anti-Israel voice in American politics," while finding space to invoke the name of Adolph Hitler and the phrase "Nazi sympathizer." Only it wasn't true--Palin was an official on the Forbes campaign in 2000. Wexler never apologized or retracted his statement.

Then an official Obama spokesman picked up the charge in a statement to the Miami Herald:

"Palin was a supporter of [MSNBC analyst] Pat Buchanan, a right-winger or as many Jews call him: a Nazi sympathizer,'' Obama spokesman Mark Bubriski wrote in an email.

Governor Palin has never supported Pat Buchanan and every responsible magazine or blog that made the charge has since corrected the record, leaving only the Obama campaign peddling this smear. How is it that the media, so committed to fighting the smears against the Obama campaign, is more than happy to allow this one to fester?

Would a Pat Buchannan supporter have a tiny Israeli flag in her office?

Eagle-eyed Doug Ross spotted an Israeli flag in her office, in a photo published last February by an Alaska blog titled, Hike of the Week Urban Hike with Sarah Palin

It is on the right hand side, next to the window:

Israpundit spotted the same Israeli flag in a video shot in her office, and what looks like a little lapel pin, too. There is actually a video available in Israpundit, but here is a still photo with helpful arrows added:

Note to moonbats: Governor Palin has full-size American and Alaskan flags in floor stands. Don't start with the Israel-first nonsense. She is a woman who appears to understand the stakes and supports Israel because it is good for America and good for the world.

Well what about Joe Biden? Although formerly identified as a friend of Israel, Biden has recently given some disturbing signs, the Begin Center reports.

Well, what about Joe Biden? Let's see.

Biden is reported to have said that Israel should get used to a nuclear armed Iran. Seems O'Bomber/O'Biden have already surrendered to the lunatic in Tehran.

But what else has Biden done and said...only because the lunatic left is accusing Palin of being a Nazi supporter and anti Israel...Heil Hitler.

John Podhoretz - 08.26.2008 - 12:06 PM

A friend in Washington e-mails a quote about a confrontation between then-Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin and Joseph Biden, that would have occurred in the summer of 1982. The quote comes from a piece by Moshe Zak, one-time editor of the Hebrew paper Ma’ariv, that appeared in the Jerusalem Post on March 13, 1992 (sorry, no link; yes, we have an updated link):

In a conversation with Sen. Daniel Patrick Moynihan, after a sharp
confrontation in the Senate Foreign Relations Committee on the subject of the settlements, Begin defined himself as “a proud Jew who does not tremble with fear” when speaking with foreign statesmen.

During that committee hearing, at the height of the Lebanon War, Sen. John Biden (Delaware) had attacked Israeli settlements in Judea and Samaria and threatened that if Israel did not immediately cease this activity, the US would have to cut economic aid to Israel.

When the senator raised his voice and banged twice on the table with his fist, Begin commented to him: “This desk is designed for writing, not for fists. Don’t threaten us with slashing aid. Do you think that because the US lends us money it is entitled to impose on us what we must do? We are grateful for the assistance we have received, but we are not to be threatened. I am a proud Jew. Three thousand years of culture are behind me, and you will not frighten me with threats. Take note: we do not want a single soldier of yours to die for us.”

After the meeting, Sen. Moynihan approached Begin and praised him for his cutting reply. To which Begin answered with thanks, defining his stand against threats.

The leftist loons just don't know when to keep their mouths shut. If they did, they wouldn't attempt to make comparisons between the executive experience of Palin vs THE ONE who has none.

Besides he does not have any other accomplishments to compare against. Now that I can understand.

Fact: Palin was a Mayor from 1996 until 2002.

Fact: It was the size of a large California High School or an air craft carrier population-wise, with the budget of High School. It would be an excellent place for a High Schooler to run for mayor as it really didn't require much.

And as for her governorship, did you know that Hillary Clinton won the New Hampshire primary with about as many votes as Palin won her governorship? Woo...she's popular.

Some people can't post without profanity and name calling. Brilliant.

Here's some details, quoted from another site:

Barack attends Columbia University and Harvard Law where he is editor of Harvard Law Review and graduates Magna *** Laude

Palin attends Univ of Idaho on a scholarship from winning a beauty paegant and majors in journalism

Barack works as a community organizer in south Chicago, professor of constitutional law at U of Chicago, and an associate in a large Civil rights firm among several other jobs

Palin works as a sports reporter for a small Anchorage TV station

Barack becomes an author and Illinois State senator

Palin becomes a member of the Wasilla city council, a town of 6500 people

Barack speaks at 2004 convention and is widely received as a rising political star

Palin becomes mayor of Wasilla, AK.....a town of 6500 people 40 miles outside Anchorage

Barack becomes a United states senator from Illinois, serves on committees, travels worldwide

Palin becomes GOV of AK wiith 114k votes

Barack chooses Joe Biden as running mate...a fellow senator with whom he has had a relationship for several years +

McCain chooses Palin who he met for the 1st time in February

Yeah, she's a great choice. Nice to see McCain paying attention to "focus groups."

The idea that Palin is in any way ready to lead the USA is ludicrous.

"Oh, that answer. I thought you were going to show proof that O'Bomber answered the questions of why his campaign and campaign staff...including the moron Wexler is claiming Palin is a Nazi supporter and against Israel."

Perhaps that's a question you can't answer acoustic...and that's the reason you didn't address it.

No I didn't address it. I know nothing about it, and in all likelihood, neither do you. You just trust that because some blog said it's true that it is.

I happen to agree with MK's resume primer for you. She's less educated, faced less competition, and won with less votes. As I said from the start, the entire STATE of Alaska has less people than my local big city. I honestly couldn't conceive of her winning mayorship of a big city. That's how unimpressive it is to make the rank of governor of Alaska. If you were white and could sufficiently ingratiate yourself with the Alaskans, I'd recommend you go up there, and try it out yourself.

Try to keep up here acoustic. This has been in the news and it's no secret Wexler, brain dead moron extraordinaire, claimed Palin supported Buchanan for president and drew the conclusion that makes her anti-Israel and a Nazi sympathizer. Wexler is in the O'Bomber campaign. He's not merely one of the unaffiliated brain dead moron demoscats like say...Nancy Pee-lousi.

Sarah Palin and Israel
Thomas Lifson

She has been smeared as a Pat Buchannanite, to which the McCain campaign has responded:

Oh, there's a lot of highly educated "I hate America" boobs, incompetents and morons baying at the moon in America. O'Bomber is one of those.

If that's your basis for Presidential competence you should have run Ward Churchill.

The state budget for Alaska is 10-12 Billion dollars. Palin managed that budget, (balanced) and about 20,000 state employees. Palin has a job approval rating of 84%. Poor O'Bomber works...sometimes in the Congress with a 9% job approval rating.

Well, since the issue of O'Bomber exploits as a law student, graduate and professor of constitutional law have been offered here to show O'Bomber's qualifications to be President, it's fair game to examine O'Bomber's legal expertise.

So, how does a constitutional scholar say on the one hand that the Washington DC total ban on handguns...even in the home for protection IS Constitutional and the 2nd Amendment be damned?

And then, as soon as the US Supreme Court strikes down the DC total ban as being unconstitutional, O'Bomber says he agrees with the decision. Can't O'Bomber read the 2nd Amendment for himself?

A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, THE RIGHT OF THE PEOPLE TO KEEP AND BEAR ARMS, SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED.

So, how can O'Bomber..who says he supports the 2nd Amendment rights of Americans to "keep and bear arms"...how can O'Bomber have voted for and supported the total ban on handguns in Chicago...which he did?

I don't give a damn whether or not you personally approve or disapprove of the 2nd Amendment or whether you personally believe all guns should be banned from private ownership. That's not the law and never was the law or the intent of the law..which is just the opposite. The only way that could ever be the LAW in the United States would be a Constitutional Amendment to repeal the 2nd Amendment...and that's not going to happen.

So, pleaaase don't attempt to use O'Bombers law degree or his so called constitutional law professorship at University of Chicago as a reason he should be elected President. In the law, the real law, the Supreme Law of the Land, O'Bomber is a dunce.

I shudder to think what O'Bomber was really teaching law students at University of Chicago. One thing is clear however. Parents who are sending their children to law school at University of Chicago should yank them out of that law school, post haste.

Obama's ignorance of the law
Ed Lasky

Barack Obama continues to embarrass himself with serious misreading of the law and the Constitution. But the media is not interested in pointing any of this out to voters, who are fed the line he is a brilliant legal thinker.

In my AT article "Barack Obama, Legal Scholar" I noted that Senator Obama, former President of the Harvard Law review who touts his years as a constitutional law lecturer at the University of Chicago Law School, has repeatedly flubbed legal questions. He has misstated the law, has a serial habit of misjudging the constitutionality of various laws and has otherwise displayed somewhat surprising gaps in his knowledge of the law (that mirror the gaps in his resume and records). He has done it yet again, as noted in today's New York Sun. When reflecting upon the selection of Sarah Palin as John McCain's running mate, Barack Obama commented,

"John McCain's new veep nominee seems like a very engaging person, a nice person. But I've got to say, she's opposed - like John McCain is - to equal pay for equal work. That doesn't make much sense to me."

As Diana Furchtgott-Roth writes in the Sun:

Does Mr. Obama, once a student president of the Harvard Law Review and later a teacher of law at the University of Chicago, not know the law?

Women have had a legal guarantee of equal pay for equal work since the Equal Pay Act of 1963, and have the right under that Act to sue employers.

Can the Democratic candidate really be this clueless about such an important anti-discrimination statute?

Charitably she offers another interpretation:

Or, perhaps Mr. Obama does know that women have a statutory guarantee of equal pay for equal work, but wants to change that to equal pay for equal worth. That has been the more sweeping, and nebulous, formulation of some feminists.

A difference of two letters, if written into law, would open a new regulatory exercise, one that seeks to compare jobs traditionally held by women - teacher aide, librarian, dental hygienist -- to jobs traditionally held by men, such as electrician, auto mechanic, and truck driver. It asks, essentially, whether a home health aide should be paid as much as a snowplow driver.

"Equal worth" would spawn immense opportunities for trial lawyers, who have contributed millions to the Democratic 2008 campaigns, as well as past Democratic elections.

The second alternative would create a regulatory scheme that would be Rube Goldbergish in its mindless complexity. Obama has sponsored two bills designed to do just that: The Fair pay Act and the Fair Pay restoration Act (also known as the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act). These would impose a mix of burdens on the government and on businesses in America; The Fair Pay Act might also illegally require employers to inquire into the sex, race and national origin of its employees.

Or does Barack Obama also not know this aspect of the law, either?
