In a strong speech in the Knesset George W. Bush spoke against those who would negotiate with and appease terrorists.

While he spoke in general terms and mentioned no one by name, Obama cried that the insinuation was intended against him. Perhaps he protest too much. Obama must be either guilt ridden or incredibly thin skinned.

But the hypocrisy of the month award has to go to Nancy Pelosi who condemned the speech as ‘beneath the dignity of the president’ because of its assumed intention as an attack on Obama. This from a politico who visited Syria against the advice of the State Department, sucking up to Assad just before Israel destroyed Syria’s attempt at a nuclear reactor.

Would it have been that hard to agree not to appease terrorists instead of taking office and playing petty politics?
