President Shimon Peres, a former Prime Minister, is more liberal than Netanyahu and is considered a moderating force in the Israeli government. He is to the left of Netanyahu on Iran and the Palestinian Peace Process, but still to the right of Obama
As a president, his opinions are widely sought after and respected, but he has no say in the execution (or legislation)
In Israel.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, a member of the right-wing Likud Party, has had a rocky relationship with President Obama because of disagreements over Israeli settlements and dealings with Iran. But this speech, and Obama’s trip to Israel in general, is an attempt to try to repair U.S.-Israeli relations
In Aladdin, Aladdin begins the story as a street thief but ends up marrying a princess.
Here, again, the references to sexual behavior are apparent: “I’ve come so far,” could as well refer to the character’s first sexual orgasm, especially when paired with the following line “I can’t go back,” which suggests the psychology of a person who’s lost their virginity and remembers what life was like in the past, before they first entered the world of partnered sex.
Shooting star is a common name for the visible path of a meteoroid as it enters the atmosphere, becoming a meteor. As it enters the atmosphere the meteor burns and vaporizes

A red-letter day is any day of special significance
The term originates from Medieval church calendars. The First Council of Nicaea in 325 decreed the saints' days, feasts and other holy days, which came to be printed on church calendars in red. The term came into wider usage with the appearance in 1549 of the first Book of Common Prayer in which the calendar showed special holy days in red ink
A magic carpet, also called a flying carpet, is a carpet that can be used to transport persons who are on it instantaneously or quickly to their destination
It originates from one of the stories in One Thousand and One Nights in which Prince Husain, the eldest son of Sultan of the Indies, travels to Bisnagar (Vijayanagara) in India and buys a magic carpet
Carpet is also slang for pubic hair. There’s therefore a slight indication that Aladdin is offering to perform cunnilingus—a “magic carpet ride”—on his to-be lover; and, consequently, the rest of the song takes on a distinctly sexual flavor: “a whole new world,” “dazzling place I never knew,” “indescribable feeling,” “I’m like a shooting star…” etc. and so on.
About the only fact Limbaugh gets right in this rant is that Beyonce was the leader of the 3-girl group Destiny’s Child
And even that’s only a half truth, since the group had 4 girls for quite a while
Bey sang the Star-Spangled Banner for President Barack Obama’s 2013 Inauguration
