Today at #lunchWithAConservative, we learned that Obama is arrogant when he threatens to use Constitutionally-granted presidential powers to override Congress, and that it's entirely understandable if Congress feels insulted over this, and Bush didn't do this kind of thing nearly as much as Obama has.

We also learned that Obama refused to negotiate during the "fiscal cliff" crisis, and was offered several quite reasonable deals by the Republicans in the days before the crisis. It was also entirely reasonable that all of them required defunding Obamacare.

Furthermore, it is apparently disturbing that anyone wouldn't take Israel's side over that of Palestine, because Israel has been so much more civilized about the whole dispute, they're basically the only civilized country in the Middle East, and anyway they have lots of really innovative and profitable businesses there. Also, the amount of foreign aid we give Israel can't amount to all that much, and why can't countries in Africa who basically live on foreign aid do as well as Israel does?

Also, Putin and Ahmadinejad come across as very reasonable on television, and they make our leaders look bad.

I think that pretty much covers it...
