The self-important Boston Globe ran an editorial that is a microcosm of how the Left manages to be so consistently wrong on so many substantive issues. The piece had to do with the supposed wrongheadedness of Republican House Speaker John Boehner. It seems that according to the Globe, Boehner has committed some kind of treasonous act by inviting Benjamin Netanyahu, Israel’s Prime Minister, to address a joint session of Congress without asking permission from their boss President Barack Obama.
The writer moans that such an undercutting of Obama’s authority will damage the delicate negotiations Obama is in with the Iranians; negotiations aimed at curtailing Tehran’s nuclear weapons development program.
According to the Globe’s faulty logic, Boehner’s invitation will make the sworn enemies of our only ally in the Middle East less likely to discontinue their nuclear weapons development plans.
If this stance was taken by a legitimately neutral third party, as the media ought to be, this initially counterintuitive position might be worth listening to. Honest public discourse on such vital matters as nuclear weapons in the hands of fanatical lunatics would be helpful if it actually existed, which of course it does not.
The Obama Cheerleaders in Boston and elsewhere see themselves as above “common sense” because it is, well “common” and they see themselves as smarter than everyone else. The media believe that Republican conservatives are evil but dedicated Islamists are not. They believe Israel should roll over and die so that THEY, can beat their breasts and piously proclaim how open minded they are.
They don’t accept the fact that given the chance the same people who run Iran would eagerly chop off their head and make them physically open minded.
These self-hating “Americans” don’t want Obama to be exposed...

I’m wondering how many of these flacks will require Julius Streicher therapy before this is all over.
When the President refuses to act, Congress must move forward on their own.
Sounds a little different that way, eh, Barry?
These “negotiations” have been going on for a year and a half and have accomplished nothing but to let Iran continue, unmolested, with its nuclear weapons program.
Barry and the Iranians share the belief that Zionist operatives delayed their settlement and necessitated a greater compensation from the US because of the Mossad's effect on Iran's nuclear program.

Well, of course they write what they’re told to...otherwise they might end up “disappeared”.
