From my friend Angel:

The movie “The Wizard of Oz” is 70 years old… Can you imagine?

What a cast, and what a story! A remake could never be as good; it certainly wouldn’t live up to the hype.

But today, if Dorothy were to encounter men with no brains, no heart, and no courage, she wouldn’t be in Oz, she’d be in Congress.

Looks like Obama’s Muslim identity politics are blinding him to behave like the hypocrite that we already knew he was.

In the first article below, Obama refuses to “meddle” or criticize Iran’s tyranny and Iran’s tyrannical regime’s hiring of Hamas thugs to kill more than 32 Iranian dissidents, yet, in the second article below, Obama willfully meddles into the politics of the sovereign nation of Israel and proceeds to layout where he believes Israel’s national borders should lie.

I have stated it before and I’ll state it again.  Obama was brought in for one singular purpose:  to destroy Israel.

“Iran election: Barack Obama refuses to ‘meddle’ over protests,” by David Blair in the Telegraph, June 17 (thanks to James):

Barack Obama, the US president, is refusing to “meddle” in the disputed Iranian elections, despite mass protests over the result which returned President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to power….

President Obama said: “It’s important to understand that, although there is amazing ferment taking place in Iran, the difference between Ahmadinejad and Mousavi in terms of their actual policies may not be as great as has been advertised.

“Either way, we were going to be dealing with an Iranian regime that has historically been hostile to the United States, that has caused some problems in the neighbourhood and has been pursuing nuclear weapons,” he told CNBC television.

He said he hoped Iran’s leaders responded to outrage over an election that pro-reform activists say was stolen by Ahmadinejad, not with violence but by respecting the right to peaceful expression.

“Am I optimistic that that will happen? You know – I take a wait-and-see approach. Either way, it’s important for the United States to engage in the tough diplomacy around those permanent security concerns that we have – nuclear weapons, funding of terrorism,” he said….

“It is not productive, given the history of US-Iranian relations to be seen as meddling – the US president, meddling in Iranian elections,” Mr Obama said….

Now read about Obama’s hypocritical, audacious and meddlesome behavior towards Israel below.  Frank Gaffney explains it very clearly in the video.  Obama is signalling a submissive effect to the Muslim world.  He has embraced the Muslim brotherhood.  Iran, and the threat it poses to Israel and the rest of the free world, is terribly important but Obama won’t speak out against members of his tribe.  Via JPost:

Obama’s administration’s criticism of
Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu’s policies has crossed the line into interfering in Israeli politics, top Likud ministers and MKs said Tuesday.

Expert Frank Gaffney: Obama’s demands on settlements ‘coercion’

Kadima officials responded to the allegations by disagreeing that the US was meddling but expressing concern that such a perception by the Israeli public would harm their party and end up strengthening the prime minister. They accused Netanyahu’s associates of portraying Obama as an enemy of Israel in order to unite the public behind him.

The charges of American interference began April 16 when Yediot Aharonot quoted Obama’s chief of staff Rahm Emanuel telling an unnamed Jewish leader:

“In the next four years there is going to be a permanent-status arrangement between Israel and the Palestinians on the basis of two states for two peoples, and it doesn’t matter to us at all who is prime minister [of Israel].”

More examples of the idiots in the idiotic Obama adminisration that the American Left willfully and in full knowledge thereof elected to the White House.  Via RightBias.com:

Just wanted to let you all know why posting has been sporadic lately:  I’m still without a job and continue to seek employment.  Job seeking is a full time job.  It sounds cliche but – yikes – I hadn’t realized the truth in that bumper sticker saying until I got laid off.  One of the worst things about the new technology of job hunting is that most job postings require the candidate to fill out ridiculously lengthy online applications.  Some of the applications I’ve filled out have required essays.  It shouldn’t take me 2-3 hrs to fill out applications when I haven’t even nailed the interview.  But who’s gonna read the answers anyway but some HR person whose goal is to screen you OUT rather than to call you in for an interview?  It just doesn’t make sense.

And whose idea was it to make Salary Fields a required field on a job application form?  I like to leave salary out of a job application because it’s a moot point to discuss it until I’m called in for an interview.

Listen up, those of you in HR:  I need the work and I’ll take the job if you’ll hire me.  If I’m willing to work for 40K less than what I was making, then so be it, but don’t use a Salary Field as a screen-out tool, it makes no sense.  Call me in and let my horrible personality, bad breath and smelly clothes be a factor in not hiring me, not what I put into a nonsense salary field on an online job application.

I’m adding another layer of complexity to my job search because I am changing careers and have to go back to school to bolster my chances at getting hired in the field that I want.   School starts this summer and I expect to graduate with a specific certification in 2010.  And I want it bad.

So, to those of you who have been wondering what is up with Smooth lately, well, there ya have it.

And one last thing.  I haven’t been completely honest.  When I’m not looking for a job and when I’m not posting here, I’m playing World of Warcraft.  I’m now a LVL 70 Night Elf.  That’s me in the pic above.  Don’t I look absolutely amazing?
