His administration had to turn to Netayahu to lobby the Republican Congress to pass a bill....
"WASHINGTON ? When the Obama administration wanted to be certain that Congress would not block $50 million in new aid to the Palestinian Authority last month, it turned to a singularly influential lobbyist: Israel?s prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu. At the request of the American Embassy and Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, Mr. Netanyahu urged dozens of members of Congress visiting Israel last month not to object to the aid, according to Congressional and diplomatic officials."
And this is on top of the embarrassing and contemptuous treatment of Obama by Boehner during the Debt Ceiling Crisis.
Sadly, Obama, the hope of many, appears to be a lame duck, with zero chance of re-election. So who is it going to be? Obviously a Republican. If there was ever any doubt as to who controlled the US, that should fly out the window...
