It looks like our petulant man-child president has already decided that he won’t meet with Netanyahu during his visit when he gives a speech to the joint session of Congress:
So Obama is using the election as an excuse not to meet with Netanyahu. Of course. But there’s probably some truth to it, as the last thing Obama wants to do is help Netanyahu win another election.
But the bigger reason is that Obama has always had contempt for our ally Israel and her president Netanyahu and he’s pissed that Boehner invited Netanyahu without his knowledge to talk about Iran, something that Obama and Bib disagree on.
