Perry on Obama: middle east policy, naive, arrogant, misguided and dangerous- plus Dopey and Grumpy

That about covers it.

Perry: Obama Middle East Policy "Naive, Arrogant, Misguided And Dangerous"

I am joined today by a diverse group of Jewish leaders from here and abroad who share my concern that the United Nations could take action this week to legitimize the Palestinian gambit to establish statehood in violation of the spirit of the 1993 Oslo Accords.

We are indignant that certain Middle Eastern leaders have discarded the principle of direct negotiations between the sovereign nation of Israel and the Palestinian leadership, and we are equally indignant that the Obama Administration’s Middle East policy of appeasement has encouraged such an ominous act of bad faith.
