"Turns into"...?! Obama and his entourage (containing nary a Senate
staffer) goes to the Western Wall as part of his "fact finding,
non-campaign visit" with 9,134 reporters in tow, puts some paper under a
rock while, pardon the pun, God only knows how many people watched, and
then acts shocked - SHOCKED, I TELL YA!! - that someone not only grabbed
up but printed his "prayer"...you couldn't separate "drivel-fest" from
"media" with a pair of D11s and the anchor rode from an aircraft
carrier...

And I'd say that he's absolutely correct - regardless of Obama's
intentions, removing such a thing is despicable. Even so, any alleged
claim of Obama as to an expectation of privacy in such a thing is, at
best, very naive.


"What if the same note had come from George Bush's pen? One can only
imagine the headlines: President Sees Self as "Instrument" of God's
Will! "

Huh? Wrong is wrong.


Huh? I was quoting an article. I agree that the student who removed
it was wrong in doing so. But the simple fact remains that IF it had
been Bush and they published it, the above quote *would* be in the NYT
and elsewhere.
