According to the Jerusalem Post, the endless flattery of Israel, a virtual full-court suck-up, has produced nothing. Israelis do not trust Obama, meaning they suspect that, in his heart, he may not adore everything about Binyamin Netanyahu and his policies. (One can only hope). Here is the latest poll.

But the White House keeps trying. On Friday, I received a White House e-mail with links to five "Israel can do no wrong" statements by the White House. They couldn't be more blatant. "Election Day Is Coming. And We LOVE Israel."

Cynical much? Here's what the White House sent for my weekend nausea fest. (If I wanted AIPAC to write the administration's Middle East policy, I would have voted for McCain).
