How frickin embarrassing - After the French President, Nicholas Sarkozy bashed Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, our ever diplomatic president responded with "You're fed up with him, but I have to deal with him every day!" http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-4145266,00.html Israel is our friend? Really? show a little decorum Obama!

This is a very embarrassing situation and also very sensitive. I think that Netanyahu may be difficult to deal with. He has a strong personality and is no one's patsy. I wonder if he even cares. This type of situation has been happening a lot. The speakers do not know that the microphones are on and say things that should not be heard by anyone else. I wonder if someone is doing this deliberately.

I am sure Netanyahu has a very strong personality, that is what makes hime who he is. But we are supposed to be Israel's greatest ally, you can't tell. As our President, Obama should ALWAYS display decorum. Bashing one leader to another is just in very poor taste.

It was very unprofessional and in very poor taste on both sides. I wonder what Obama says about The French President behind his back and vice versa. Obama and Netanyahu do not seem to like each other. Didn't Obama snub him during a White House visit some months ago?

See what happens when you take his teleprompter away? Kind of sounds like little kids on the playground, huh? Sure as heck doesn't sound like Leaders of the Free World!

As France is a also a haven for Muslims I am quite sure Ibn Barack Hussein Obama is getting along well with the French President and his views. Obummer caters to Islam and we so it is no wonder Obummer also agrees with him in his anti Israel sentiments.

The proof just keeps stacking up. I only hope that the next president can fix half of the damage Obama has done.
