This was a setup?

Say it ain’t so! No way! The Obama played the people?

But according to a statement from Ma’ariv yesterday, the Obama campaign actually leaked the note to reporters before Obama even placed it in the wall. Yediot Aharonot, Israel’s most popular daily, apparently also received a copy of the note in advance but decided not to print it. As a Ma’ariv spokesman told the Jerusalem Post:

Barack Obama’s note was approved for publication in the international media even before he put in the Kotel [Western Wall], a short time after he wrote it at the King David Hotel in Jerusalem.

Barack Obama may be above politicizing our troops, but I guess he isn’t above politicizing religion.

My first question when I saw this story was that I doubt the political hacks working for the Obamassiah would have waited for chance to have that prayer divulged. In fact I suspected the whole thing was orchestrated. They might be saying that is not the case now, but I this is just as bad. And I am still not sure if this whole thing is not a set up. This guy and his troupe of used car salesmen is capable of anything.
