no offense is taken on our part to the much deserved criticism; Indeed, you demonstrated tremendous restraint. Now Mr. Romney is off to offend the good people of Israel where he is expected to: Gift P.M. Netanyahu with a smoked Virginia ham; ask whether they prefer him to speak in Yiddish or Hebrew; forgive them for killing Christ; ask if he can open secret accounts in the "West Bank"; and, point to the Dome of the Rock Mosque and ask if that's the Knesset. We Americans will say a collective "Oye vey!" Cheerio! Why blame Obama and the left for this disaster of a trip it is entirely Mitts doing. The right are angry because Mitt has been exposed for the empty suit he is. I knew the trip would not go well but he has bombed. Plus it is a Conservative Prime Minister, Mayor and press he has offended and upset the most. He needs to return home and stop talking.
