Ever wonder where Obama Rama gets his ideas (such as they are) on foreign policy?
Wonder no more:

Samantha Power is the author of a Pulitzer Prize-winning book on genocide, and she has a professorship at Harvard (in something called “Global Leadership and Public Policy”). She is also a senior foreign policy adviser to Barack Obama. This isn’t an honorific: she has worked for Obama in Washington, she has campaigned for him around the country, and she doesn’t hesitate to speak for him. This morning, the Washington Post has a piece on Obama’s foreign policy team, identifying her (and retired Maj. Gen. Scott Garion) as “closest to Obama, part of a group-within-the-group that he regularly turns to for advice.” Power and Garion “retain unlimited access to Obama.” This morning’s New York Times announces that Power has an “irresistable profile” and “she could very well end up in [Obama’s] cabinet.”

So she’s got academic creds, and she’s got the ear of the Boss Man. Now for her ideas on foreign policy, specifically in the Middle East:

What we don’t need is some kind of early warning mechanism there, what we need is a willingness to put something on the line in helping the situation. Putting something on the line might mean alienating a domestic constituency of tremendous political and financial import; it may more crucially mean sacrificing—or investing, I think, more than sacrificing—billions of dollars, not in servicing Israel’s military, but actually investing in the new state of Palestine, in investing the billions of dollars it would probably take, also, to support what will have to be a mammoth protection force… a meaningful military presence.

So this raving lunatic wants to spend billions to beef up the Palestinian Armed Forces?????

Words fail me.

To paraphrase some smart guy: that idea is so stupid, so patently ridiculous, that it could only have come from an academic.

After this, if any American male Jew votes for Obama, he deserves to have his foreskin sewn back on, without an anesthetic. Female Jews voting for Obama deserve to get exiled to Saudi Arabia. Or Gaza.
