COLOR ME PO-ed

Ticked is not a strong enough word. Our son was famous for ticking off a pitch that he couldn't handle in Khoury League. Rather than take a full cut at it, he would tick it foul and await a pitch he wanted to drive. I know one assistant coach that it drove crazy.

Hacked off is not used much anymore, but it may be more accurate. Hacking conjures a violent action of some sort. And now we may be getting there.

But I'll settle for PO-ed, even though on mainstream tv these days they don't hesitate to say what P and O stand for. So who or what is my subject? Once again, I'm afraid it's our President.

He had angered me from ObamaCare to border control. His attempt at Reaganesque humor about creating a moat with alligators fell way short of any kind of humor that The Master Communicator used. Don't even try, Mr. Obama. I knew Mr. Reagan. I went to his first inauguration. Believe me, you're no Ronald Reagan. Unfortunately.

But his stance on Israel is the single most dangerous, most uninformed blatant single action he can do to harm our country. Return to the boundaries prior to the 1967 war? I'd like to think he can't be serious. I could go into great detail about how stupid his suggestion is. I could suggest that maybe our country should go back 10 more years to re-establish boundaries and give back Hawaii. Then there'd be no birther question. But instead, I'll simply offer this take. A scriptural, a Biblical take.

God will take care of Israel, Mr. Obama. With or without our help. But no place in scripture does He say He'll take care of the US. History and scripture dictate that God will bless those who support Israel. God will draw the boundaries, not you, Sir.
