Barack Hussein Obama just got the endorsement from hell, for an American politician that is. The endorsement may prove to be more of a boost for Obama's co-front runner Hillary Clinton than for Barack.
Ahmed Yousuf of the Hamas terrorist group in charge of Gaza has just announced his endorsement of Barack Obama. Ahmed Yousuf is also the political advisor for Hamas, it may not help Barack to have stated he was flattered by the description Yousuf used comparing Barack to John Kennedy while endorsing the notion that Barack would want to 'change' the American positions regarding Hamas.
Speaking to WND (WorldNetDaily) and Batchelor (WABC-New York radio's John Batchelor.)
, Yousuf excused Obama's criticism of Hamas, describing it as political posturing.
"I understand American politics, and this is the season for elections, and everybody tries to sound like he's a friend of the Israelis ... so whatever [the] Israelis didn't like they will take from all those candidates," Yousuf said.
The endorsement in even such a backhanded fashion from a terrorist group known for it's rocket and mortar shell attacks on Israel is not likely to win a large number of voters in the upcoming primaries or election in November. The real question perhaps is how much did William Jefferson Clinton have to pay Ahmed Yousuf to give Obama the endorsement?
