Barack Obama Should be More Like Daniel Ortega

Dear Nica Times:

The United States could stand a president like Nicaragua’s Daniel Ortega – one with the moral sense and honest gumption to denounce, in no uncertain terms, Israel’s latest outrage against the civilized world, namely its craven recent attack on an unarmed medical supply ship.

With his mealy-mouthed double talk on the subject, the United States’ ethically challenged president has once again demonstrated that he is hopelessly subservient to the Zionist influences that lead the U.S. government around as though it was their personal beast or burden.
