Did Obama try to upstage Romney on Israel?

Washington (CNN) - The day before Mitt Romney makes a highly publicized trip to Israel, President Barack Obama on Friday signed a bill passed by Congress designed to increase security ties with the Jewish state.

Both the timing of Friday's event and the presence of TV cameras opened the White House to accusations of political maneuvering in a presidential election year.

Obama's schedule for this week, distributed by the White House on July 20, made no mention of the signing of the United States-Israel Enhanced Security Cooperation Act. The measure won final approval from Congress on July 17, receiving strong bipartisan support.

White House spokesman Jay Carney denied any political intent with the timing of the bill signing, saying the measure passed last week and Obama was traveling from Sunday to Wednesday.

"The president's been on the road, and today was the day to sign it," he said Friday. (READ MORE)

    The President does not have to try to upsage the "want-to be"

        The President is well within his rights to do what he did. He signed a bill passed by Congress by a large majority. As far as upstaging Romney is concerned, why not? republicans' intense hatred for Obama is well known from the day he was sworn in. No stops are being spared to somehow make him a one term President. GOP has openly said it millions of times. As Sam Donaldson said recently, 'The reason Republicans hate Obama is not because of what he has done or not, but because he is of Afro-American origin'.

        Based on Romney's ever-changing statements from the beginnings of the Republican primaries until today, I would not trust him to be the local dog catcher and nether should the international community.

        If the president upstaged the lying, hiding-the tax-reports, shifting positions wanna be, then so be it.

        Sorry BILL, when the Republican candidates were bashing Obama's relationsip with Israel, ISRAELI LEADERS publicly acknowledged that the Obama Administration has backed Israel in almost every way. If you don't believe it talk to them.

        THE REPUBLITARDS ARE REACHING FOR ANY REASON TO HATE THE PRESIDENT SO EVEN SOMETHING GOOD HAPPENS THEY BASH HIM. THE PEOPLE OF ISRAEL ARE PROBABLY SHAKING THEIR HEADS AT HOW PSYCHOTIC THE REPUBLITARDS HAVE BECOME AND ARE HOPING FOR AN OBAMA VICTORY COME NOVEMBER.

        Is not that the USA is the world's sitter...Israel is an important ally....something very important to mention...Israel has never been safer than now...thanks to President Obama....everything has been done behind close doors and with the outmost respect and secrecy...which is vital for world sensitive events....you don't need a Mormon leaning into a wall pretending to pray...(how the hoot do I say this)......to show support for Israel...I have tons of Jewish friends in Florida and they all know it...technology support is key in these type of situations.....Iran cannot shot a missile....their coordinates feed will take it to the sea...away from civilian populations...Iran knows it....that's why they're negotiating at the UN table....what's shocking is that Romney, as the potential Republican candidate, has been briefed .... yet he goes out, blasts the President with lies.....when everything along with his tax returns come to light....GAME OVER !!!!....GOP knows it.....

        Romney is an embarrassment to the United States. Under Obama, Americans have become re-accustomed to not having the world hate us. Then Romney steps foot in London, insults our closest ally and has 60,000 people jeering him (including the arch conservatives of England). If Americans are foolish enough to vote for Mitt we can start looking forward to world hating us again like they did under the last Republican administration.

        count your blessings and vote obama out. teranny is what Obama is about. what else did he mean when he wispered to putin. "after the election I will have more flexability" to disarm America. what of his socialist background and mentoring. saying that others are more teranical than Obama is not useful. as Jefferson said about king george, the king is a tyrant we might as well call him a tyrant. the evidence is there for those who are willing to research and open their eyes.

        the best time to stop a tryant is be fore he has nothing to loose. before he is reelected.

    The Romney people crying for a handicap, they want a chance to allow Romney to trash this president relationship with Israel and promote his own none existing foreign policy experience with fake credential. Obama has the power of the pen to upstage Romney the weasel. If I was president running for reelection I would Use it, wouldn't you. Romney, when it comes to politics, he is out of his league.

        In an interview with Israel's Deputy Prime Misister and Minister of Defense, who is also a former Prime Minister of Israel today, EHUD BARAK said that though historically administrations from both political sides in the U.S. have supported the Jewish State, President Obama's support, security-wise is unparalled.

BUT it should be expected Iguess when you look at the posters here.

        Sad to say, but, the first boatload of Jewish refuges from Germany were turned away by our country, forced to go back to a living hell. Maybe it's why we support them now – out of guilt.

        @Cynthia L,

        I did not know about that but I know that those of us who are Christians do not support Israel out of a sense of guilt. It is much deeper than that! the reasons are spiritually and Biblically based!. I don't appreciate the info though! I don't think we support Japan strictly based upon guilt although that might be a factor!

        If so then why did President Washinton write a letter to the Jews of Newport Rhode Island with the following statement included in it?

        “To Bigotry No Sanction, to Persecution No Assistance”

        Appearently the conviction of the founding fathers and Our first President were forgotten... Now you use it as an argument... For what???

        July 29, 2012 at 11:32 pm |
      • Cynthia L.

        Because you spout off like the U.S. has never leaned anti-semetic. Even though the Founding Fathers said some lofty things that I agree with doesn't change the fact that we have had some hand at throwing gas on the fire of discrimination in our nation's past and present. That isn't re-writing our history – that's facing the truth.

        Just to clarify – The Jewish refugees I was talking about above, were trying to flee Hitler. And, we weren't the only country to turn them away. But, shamefully we did and that my friend you can look up.

      There are 22 nations that are Islamic.
      There is "ONE" Jewish State.

      Obama sent the the missile defense to shoot down Hamas Rockets.
      Obama has taken Israels side at the UN.
      Maybe Obama needs to stand on the front steps of the White house
      and scream this at the top of his lungs ?
      No, as usual, Obama quietly takes care of business.

    Let's see obama believes he has a poor relationship with Israel so congress bails him out with more spending that my grand kids have to pay for in the form of higher taxes. Mr Obama rearanges his schedule to try to oneups Mr. Romney. This may be a good short term political move but will back fire. This will back fire because up until now the Obama administration has been anti Isreal. three years of being anti Isreal does not a signing mend. the obama relationship with Isreal is very simular to his handling of the economy. he may not be responsible for the state of the relationship but he has made it worse.

      WoW! Just have a look at the ignorance.

      The Israeli PM have said that they don't need America's help at all. Just research it. It is really sad that I have to pay taxes for all this shit happening in the Shittiest place in the world, and see so many great American's lose their jobs and suffer.

      I don't know whats happening here, I might soon think of relocating myself to somewhere else that thinks about their citizens. A country that protects itself or takes the US for a ride (financially) , lolz

      Obama is not anti Israel.
      The bill was approved days ago.
      Obama was away
      He signed it as soon as he got back to Washington.

      and be in two places at once..

      The Rom Knee super candidate robot has experienced some difficulties.
      We at "Rom Knee" are pleased to announce that we have worked out
      some of the bugs.
      Rom Knee will no longer "flip", when he should "flop".
      The Rom Knee will also no longer be able to insert both feet into mouth.
      When one foot goes in, the other foot becomes disabled.
      We are also working on some software problems.
      Rom Knee will no longer be able to answer questions
      regarding, poor people, blacks, gays, taxes, bain, Massachussetts, and woman.

      We hope that you will be satisfied with the "New" and "Improved" Rom Knee.

      Of course this kind of response is all a Republican has because they really can't actually respond with what Mitt the Twit would do the country because he's keeping it a secret – like everything else. Remember when Richard Nixon ran for a second term and he said he had a secret plan to end the war in Viet Nam? His secret plan was to say we won and pull out all the troops. He could have done the same things years before and saved thousands and thousands of lives. Romney seems to like secrets – just like old tricky Dick.

      July 27, 2012 at 5:11 pm |
      • wayne

        were you even alive when Nixon was president? if so what is the difference between Nixon and Clinton. both lied under oath and tried to cover it up. the only thing that was different was that Nixon had repsect enough for the country to resigned rather than dragging the country through an impeachment and was haited for it, clinton however out charmed everyone with the help of the media with his "I did not have sexual reations with that woman" defense and beat the impeachment but I say from a moral perspective coving up knowing about a break-in of the democrates is far less than covering up the molistation of an inturn.

        "Tricky Dicky" was one of the all time best campain slogans to deminize someone, I'll give you that. Romney isn't anything like Nixion. In fact Obama's morals are closer to Nixion than anyones.

        what does the Vietnam war have to do with Romney?nothing but while you are talking about wars was it not Obama who said he had a plan to end the wars in Iraq and Afganistan and close getmo? I guess the plan was bushes plan, Obama pulled out troops from Iraq on bushes timetable not his own. once in office he realized the importance of keeping getmo open. It will be interesting how obama will end the afganistan war even after seal team 6's success. but obama is having too much fun with his drone strikes to stop the war.

        Obama doubled the national debt, which had taken more than two centuries to accumulate, in one year.
        He then proposed to double the debt again within 10 years.
        He criticized a state law that he admitted he never even read.
        He joined the country of Mexico and sued a state in the United States to force that state to continue to allow illegal immigration.
        He pronounced Navy Corpsman like Navy Corpseman.
        He put 87,000 workers out of work by arbitrarily placing a moratorium on offshore oil drilling on companies that have one of the best safety records of any industry because one foreign company had an accident.
        He used a forged document as the basis of the moratorium that would render 87,000 American workers unemployed.
        He is first President to need a Teleprompter installed to be able to get through a press conference.
        He spent hundreds of thousands of dollars to take his First Lady to a play in NYC.
        He reduced the retirement plan holdings of GM stock by 90% and given the unions a majority stake in GM.
        He made a joke at the expense of the Special Olympics.
        He gave Gordon Brown a set of inexpensive and incorrectly formatted DVDs, when Gordon Brown had given him a thoughtful and historically significant gift.
        He gave the Queen of England an iPod containing videos of his speeches.
        He bowed to the King of Saudi Arabia.
        He visited Austria and made reference to the nonexistent "Austrian language."
        He filled his cabinet and circle of advisers with people who cannot seem to keep current in their income taxes.
        He stated that there were 57 states in the United States.
        He flew all the way to Denmark to make a five minute speech about how the Olympics would benefit him walking out his front door in his home town.
        He is so Spanish illiterate as to refer to "Cinco de Cuatro" in front of the Mexican ambassador when it was the 5th of May (Cinco de Mayo), and continued to flub it when he tried again.
        He burned 9,000 gallons of jet fuel to go plant a single tree on Earth Day.
        He okayed Air Force One flying low over millions of people followed by a jet fighter in downtown Manhattan causing widespread panic.
        He failed to send relief aid to flood victims throughout the Midwest with more people killed or made homeless than in New Orleans.
        He created the position of 32 Czars who report directly to him, bypassing the House and Senate on much of what is happening in America.
        He ordered the firing of the CEO of a major corporation, even though he had no constitutional authority to do so.
        What is it about Obama that makes him so brilliant and impressive?
        Can't think of anything?
        Don 't worry. He's done all this in less than 4 years – so you don’t have that much time to come up with an answer.
        Every statement and action in this is factual and directly attributable to Barrack Hussein Obama.
        Every bumble is a matter of record and completely verifiable.
        AND NOW–
        HE ACTUALLY WANTS US TO RE-ELECT HIM.
        WAKE UP AMERICA!!! 2012 IS UPON US.

    DEcember 2012,

    you are right, it not just about Obama's Jobs killing over regulation. its not just about obama and his outsorcing and off shoring of Jobs using billions of borrowed stimulus money which stimulated jobs outside the country but did nothing hear once the stimulus ran out of money. its not about Obama and his massive increase in government spending. its not about Obama's ponse scheme of artifically increasing teacher jobs and knowing that he will benefit from the teachers unions dues which go almost singularly to democrates at the expense of all americans democrats or not. then claiming that is where "the economy is weakest is the public sector" and that "the privet sector is doing just fine",. Its not about obama and his failure for the past 1000+ days to get a budget in an effort to hide the gross overspending. it is not about obama and the worst jobs record since the great depression. Its not about obama and his efforts to punish success. its not about Obama and his crony capitalism. " its the ecconomy stupid".

    Chances are you may know who said that first. it did not ring as true then as it does now. vote obama out, free the congress of the strangle hold of democrates and return the United states to greatness. once again it is not just about obama its the ecconomy stupid.

    Mr. Romney doesn't have to have The POTUS up stage him. Romney needs more than up-stageing to get in the REALITY of running for any Political position in the Free World. Even our Senators we have right now far pass the Romney discrace he has shown not only to the Foreign Leaders but here at home too ( TAXE RETURNS ? ) Just to start out with. Anyhow that guy is not going to Represent this country after everything he stands for. Mitt Romney is nothing even close to matching up with President Obama. He needs to go back to Wallstreet and do what he does best, Spread sheets, manipulation of funds, destroying bussinesses and stuffing huge amounts of money in bank accounts overseas so he doesn't have to account to the American way of paying TAXES !

        You can assume the same of me.
        But whenever anything is posted of interest,
        i always do some homework.

        Some people dont care about "truth".
        They just want to support thier side.

        Democrats are not perfect, but they care more about
        this country than the Republicans do.

        Help get us out of this mess by voting Obama.
        Whats Romney doing ?
        He fled the country so he didnt have to answer anymore
        questions about Bain Capitol or his taxes.
        He pissed off The British.
        In his support of Israel he has inflamed
        the Arab world, and lets see what damage he can do in Poland.

        You Republican Obama haters need to grow up.
        Your party was infiltrated and taken over by the far right.They had a mission under George Bush.
        That mission has not been completed.
        315 million people in the United States....THE MIDDLE CLASS,
        are only here to make the Rich......RICHER.

    You would have to be crazy or no very educated to believe President Obama will not be re elected PERIOD. That’s a fact the Republicans are very much aware of, but they are doing what they are suppose to do and put up a fight. President Obama is the first president to take a giant step in reforming health care, and he will be the first president re elected with a bad economy.
    Now if you really think Money Mitt is going to win the election then you shouldn’t be on this site. I can understand if you don’t like the President’s policies, but to think he’s not going to win in November is delusional.
    There are not enough Democratic votes or independent votes to put him over the top so commonsense would tell you some Republicans are crossing lines and defecting to the other side. Money Mitt has no foreign diplomacy skills or National Defense knowledge to be effective anywhere abroad. He should just stick to what he knows best, business and outsourcing jobs…..

    What's he supposed to do, tell Israel to hold its breath until after the election? That's stupid (like most of the GOP's manufactured 'sins' of his) and would be far more political than just doing it when it's ready to be done. These people are such jealous crybabies.

We need to be better neighbors and partners to each other.

Mr Obama did exactly what you said he shouldn't do rearrange his schedule around Mr. Romney's. that is the story. that is how scared he is about possibly loosing his paid vacations and golfing trips.

    CNN, really, is this the best you can do? Why all the articles favoring Mitt the Twit Romney, and all of the articles attacking Obama? Obama is the President of the United States, and he doesn't have to upstage anyone.

    Where is the analysis about Romney and his handler's (er, large donors) signaling to Big Oil that he would support an attack by Israel on Iran, a country that has done nothing to them. Oh wait, Iran has Oil, and Big Oil wants the US government to have a military presence in the Middle East to keep the money flowing. And the US has to pay bribes (I mean, Aid) to the rulers in those countries.

    And by the way, if you tell everyone you had a secret meeting, then it is no longer a secret meeting! Sheesh.

        mmm, Wayniepoo, and what brilliant insights do you have that make you qualified to assume that he "tried to do so?" Are you privy to the schedule of the white house and to just how much influence he has with Congress' timing of bills? If you have paid even a nitwit's amount of attention the last two years, you would know that his interests and priorities are hardly governing what the House does and have only limited influence in the filibustering Senate.

        Obama has invested in the success of American companies when they were on the verge of bankruptcy to save the auto industry, and the banking industry and has invested for the future in solar power. While one of the solar power companies failed, that does not make the program a failure. Taking cash out of a company and loading it up with debt on purpose so it fails makes Romney a failure.

        And you think my criiticsm of Romney is rooted in jealousy because he has $100 million in an 401(k) (which cannot be done legally)? I think he's an amoral socialpath and a crook - that is why I don't like him. And thinking that does not make me unAmerican. If you think jealousy is un-American, you think giving no-bid multi-billion dollar contracts to your politicial friends is un-American? Or is that the American Way?

        I would never want to be in Romney's shoes, nor would I ever stoop to the depths he has done for money. And financially, I am quite successful already. But I did honestly and no one was harmed by any of my financial ventures.

        Exactly HOW is the country better off under Obama? The deficet has increased by 50% (more than under any other president in history). Obama lied to us about Health care (it's not a tax), Gitmo is still open, taxes have gone up and the ecopnomy is worse than ever. Seems like Obama has failed to me.

    Obama has everyone here "conned" You all beleive everything is sad great, and that everything is gonna be allright. Sure it is ....................IF YOUR A TOTAL MORON ! Some of you very intelligent people need to look at the country as it presently stands. Poverty in this country is approaching levels not seen since the 1960`s. Really? Were going in the right direction? Secretary of State was directly responsable for the "outsourcing" of jobs. Walmart outsourves more than anybody, and I beleive that 85% of their imports are from China. Who do you think sat on their hands and said nothing while this was going on? And you President, talks about outsourcing? Gte a "clue" guy`s !!

    President Obama is the PRESIDENT. He doe not "upstage" anyone, he is the stage. mighty mitt might be trying desperately to pander to potential Jewish voters, he may be desperately trying to appear even a little presidential in his debacle abroad, but it is he who is intruding on the President's stage, not vice versa.

    Mighty mitt looks like Clark W Griswold in Europe. However, he straps dogs and not decesased relatives to the roof. The deceased relatives are for baptizing in willard's world.

    This is a guy who got 3 of his own party's candidates running against him kicked off the ballot....his own people. So, what do you think? He clearly has no rules as to how far he will go to win. The Cubs should sign him with competitive drive like his. If they didn't win the series, he would just have them all droned while driving to the off-season.

    @ Gandalf the white. Really....... better off under Obumer than Bush...really. Well let's see.....gas was $1.68 in east TN......only 11 million people were out of work, now 40 to 44 million are...... 4 trillion in dept, now 16 trillion......a dismantled military w/ crappy moral.......the rest of the world respected use, now....it's a joke. That's change you can have ... not me. Obumer is creating only 80,000 jobs per month...when 250,000 is needed just to keep up w/ people entering the work force. Just for unemployment to remain unchanged. That's why Obumer number's don't add up. Israel know's a Marxist when they see one..... right Obumer.

  67. Jack Bissette

    @ Gandalf the white. "Saved the auto industry" .... really! What a idiot! The only thing Obumer did was to save and protect union jobs. GM or Dodge would have never gone anywhere. They would have filed...cleaned up their dept....restructured.....ditched the worthless unions..... and built cars. This would cost the tax payer's ( hich I'm sure your not one) a lot less money than 50 billion. By reading your leftist rants... it's clear you don't read much. Cool-aid!

    When you're scared of losing your job, you'll do whatever you can to try and keep it. Even when it means making of fool of yourself like Obama does with his constant, very obvious vote pandering. Oh well, it's not like it will do him any good, we all know exactly what he's doing.

      Bloomberg news agency is reporting consumer confidence rose- upbeat about job prospects, causing stocks to edge into positive territory with USA Today reporting that the Home Price Index gains in the last year in more than half of major U.S. cities – a milestone in the historic housing collaspe of 2007 – 2009 recession.

    Unfortunately "We the people" have no control over what our elected officials are doing in Washington We have allowed them to shut us out. Our country is controlled by Greed on both sides of the aisle. The system is broke. The two party system has failed. Until we can have an honest independent party of average hard working Americans with common sense in control we will continue down the road of demise. What happened to comprimise for the good of the country. What happened to honest debate about the issues without attacks of one's character. Both Obama/Romney will not fix these problems. We the people need to kick the money out of Washington that prevents us from truly finding common ground to address the magnitude of our problems. The two party system thrives on "Divide and Conquer". Debate but dont Attack. Our founding fathers are rolling in their graves.

    Congress passes a bill by a wide bi-partisan majority. So is Obama supposed to delay signing it because he's afraid that the rightwads will accuse him of "trying to upstage" the not-yet-nominated GOP ex-governor's globetrotting trip? Fie. They'd scream bloody murder and decry his efforts if he came up with a cure for cancer and found an eternal source of unlimited, clean energy. Only the uneducated even listen to them anymore.

    Well once again Romney screwed up on the road further embarrasing the U.S. abroad . He almost started WW 3
    with the Palestinians while in Israel . The Israeli Gov. futher stated that ties were never better between the
    Obama Admin. and Israel . So Romney´s once again lying wjhen he says that ties between the U.S. and Israel are bad .
    I´m sorry Mr. Romney Your no Barrack Obama but you are more like "W" Bush and we know how horrible
    he was as president .

        My reply was to Mitt's comment. Although, WWIII could be started over something sillier than comparing one country's success over that of it's neighbors in that part of the world. This is one nutty-powder keg of a region.

    @Charlotte.... ahh...YES! Delay signing. One ot two day's ... that's all. Mr Bush would have never done that to Obumer in 2008. Well that's class for yeah... you Lib's have no idea what that is. Do you or your Lackey Troop (Lib's) realize that the Obumer made the Prime Minister take the "back door" out of the White House while they visited. How low is that. Liberal's, Marxist and Europe's Socialist have despised the Israeli's for decades now.... no secret. The Israeli's are well aware of this fact. I've trained w/ Israeli soldiers.....and they are well aware. Obumer's approval rating in Israel is 3%. WOW! The rest of the world know they are dealing w/ a child. France, England and Germany's Merkel have crossed words w/ the Loser In Chief. No body has respect for this complete utter loser.

    I've been surfing on-line more than 3 hours today, yet I by no means discovered any interesting article like yours. It's beautiful price enough for me.
