With U.S.-Israeli relations currently at just about absolute zero minus 459.67 degrees Fahrenheit U.S. Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz claimed in a piece she wrote for The Hill that, according to its headline, The spirit of Israel lives in the Democratic Party. The South Florida Democrat, and chairwoman of the Democratic National Committee, was writing in response to a statement by U.S. Rep. Steve King, R-Iowa, during an interview earlier this month on Boston Herald Radio.
I dont understand how Jews in America can be Democrats first and Jewish second and support Israel along the line of just following their president, he said, according to BuzzFeed. Theyre knee-jerk supporters of the presidents policy.
After using The Hill as her soapbox to lambaste Republicans in general and King in particular, she observed that the Democratic Party is the natural home of Jewish Americans.
I cant argue the point that the majority of American Jews identify with the Democratic Party whether its natural or not is debatable.
But her train of thought began to derail when she said, American Jews are overwhelmingly Democrats because of our values, and, yes, because of our deep connection to and support of the State of Israel.
Then Wasserman Schultz went completely off the tracks with this statement:
To those ends, we are proud of the way President Obama has supported Israel over his tenure from unprecedented military and intelligence cooperation and economic collaboration to affirming Israels right to exist, to defend herself, and to thrive.
I believe she has Obama confused with pretty much all previous presidents well, excepting Jimmy Carter, of course.
And I dont even have to make the effort to list all the reasons our president is no friend to Israel folks on Twitter did that for me. Here are a few examples:
what would that member of the Synagogue of Satan know about support of Israel ?
“Spirit of Israel lives in the Democrat party?”
Must be why Biden said the only ones American Jews could depend on was Israel.
These knuckleheads should coordinate their stories.
Pathetic lib BeeEss.
So Debbie, Debbie, Debbie, why did the DNC vote God and Israel off the democrat party platform THREE TIMES???
“Voted God and Israel off the Democrat platform 3 times.”
Sounds biblical, like the rooster crowing 3 times for Peter.
Dems only call on God when politically expedient.
With the Democrats running everything the only thing left of Israel will be spirits.
If Debbie “went to Temple,” in would be a desecration.
the “spirit” ...as in a spirit that has left a corpse....the remnants of an alliance. the muzzie commie mulatto bath house boy defecates on the constitution and is the panultimate anti american effeminate crack headed TRAITOR
Dear Debbie ,,, Crack is harmful to your health and it has a tendency to wreck warp and twist one’s mind and it seems you are suffering from all those symptoms today . No one is listening to you any more except your poor mother .
man,
if you want to see one pathetic lie fest,
Go to a Century Village campaign event this skank does.
They are old Jewish retiree enclaves in various South Florida cities.
Her biggest support groups.
Pathetic Jews who vote dem and to hell with Israel.
These people have no shame.
We should have listened to GW:
*none to make him afraid.*
That ain’t happening.....
