As if Obama would ever actually apologize for anything other than America’s history:
GOP Lawmaker Calls on Obama to Apologize to Netanyahu for Disparaging Live Mic Comments
On Monday The Blaze reported on President Obama’s not-so-private conversationwith French President Nicolas Sarkozy where the two men were overheard on an open mic making disparaging comments about Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Today, a freshman House Republican called on President Obama to formally apologize for these exceedingly critical comments.
“I find President Obama’s criticism of Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu highly offensive and call on him to issue a formal apology on behalf of the American people,” Rep. Michael Grimm (R-N.Y.) said in a statement Tuesday. “Whether the microphones are on or off, the message to our allies in Israel should always remain the same: ‘We stand with you.’”
In the conversation between the two heads of state, Sarkozy told Obama that he “cannot stand Netanyahu; he’s a liar.” To which Obama replied, “you’re fed up with him, but I have to deal with him every day!”
Grimm characterized Obama’s comments as “disgraceful and inappropriate coming from someone who holds the highest office in the United States.” He added that “they provide a poor and inaccurate reflection of the American people he was elected to represent, and they must be rescinded.”
