Obama's disconnect

So we have a president who completely disrespects Israel and Netanyahu, and sympathizes with Muslims. He allows them to have a "Day of Islamic Unity" on the Capitol which is presided over by Hassen Abdellah, a lawyer who defended Mahmud Abouhalima, who was convicted of conspiracy in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing. In the meanwhile, several Muslim extremists are arrested in the U.S. for plotting terrorist attacks.

I would, at the very least, like to have a president who believes in our form of government and laws. Would anyone else?
