The crucial point which gets left out in "the truth" is that once Obama made his positions on Israel clear, Hamas repudiated their earlier mistaken move, a tacit endorsement of Obama for those who dislike Hamas.

But will Obama get credit for that from the critics? Not likely. All this episode really proved is how naive Hamas could be - and maybe some who bought into the whole game.

Does Hamas' opinion or endorsement of Obama influence you? If so, why?

No, it doesn't. Mentioning the fact in a commercial or article or on the air doesn't make it right-wing Islamo-fascist fear-mongering tactics, either.

Which was the point.
