At this writing, nearly two dozen Democrats are planning to boycott Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s address to Congress in March.
Vermont Democratic Sen. Patrick Leahy called the speech “a tawdry and high-handed stunt.” Minnesota Democratic Rep. Betsy McCollum said, “In my view Mr. Netanyahu’s speech before Congress is nothing more than a campaign event hosted by Speaker Boehner and paid for by the American people.”
“I’m offended as an American,” said New York Democratic Rep. Charlie Rangel, who appeared to challenge Netanyahu to a fight over Twitter.
This once would have been unthinkable. “You used to be able to find critics of Israel in the Republican Party,” John Judis wrote in The New Republic last year, rattling off names like Charles Matthias and Paul Findley. “But the Democrats, and particularly liberal Democrats, stood squarely behind whatever the Israeli government was doing.”
“Our alliance with Israel is an alliance based on common democratic ideals and mutual benefit,” said a prominent Democratic senator in a 1980 speech. “We must never barter the freedom and future of Israel for a barrel of oil — or foolishly try to align the Arab world with us, no matter what cost.”

The Bible tells us that being or supporting the enemy of Israel will get you disappeared. The Progressives hate the truth of the Bible, or I could just say “they hate the truth”. Or could they just want to see the US gone?
Because only the conservatives choose to not ignore history.
I can’t think of one Democrat I have any respect for. They are anti-American and anti-freedom as far as I am concerned.
Does Charlie Rangle really think that anyone on earth gives a darn what he thinks about anything? These commie egos are nuts.
At least Netanyahu doesn't have to cast pearls before as many swine.
tbe islamonazis (and just regular old- fashioned nazis) in the D party are “outing themselves.” A sickening sight yes.
But probably a necessary one if we are to clean up the Fillth in WashDC.
According to Genesis, God said about the descendents Of Abraham that he would “bless those who bless you and curse those who curse you.”
The reason Obama and his Democrat running dogs do not want Bibi to speak before Congress is because Bibi—unlike Obama—does not want to join them in appeasing the cursed Iranians.
The more leftists that boycott Bibi’s speech the better.
It makes it more newsworthy and since most Israelis don’t care for Obama or his policies the fact that it upsets Obama improves Netanyahu’s election chances.
Not once.
Not twice.
But THRICE!
Who, besides his gibsmedat constituency, would give half a damn about anything the racist tax fraud criminal Charlie Rangel says? A House ethics committee subpanel today found Democratic Rep. Charlie Rangel guilty of 11 of the 13 charges of ethics violations against him in 2010. Why is he still in office??? Obviously Rangel feels threatened when a REAL man steps up to the podium. He's not used to that, so like the rat that he is, he first tries to bare his teeth. When that flimsy display fails to intimidate, he will scuttle away to the nearest hole in the subway wall. Pathetic. And even more pathetic, the brainless morons that continue to vote for this quality of representative for themselves. Obviously, that's all they deserve.

A shot from the Democratic Convention:
There.
Fixed.
I’m curious as to who’s paying Democrat consultants to try to help run Netanyahu out of office.
yes that is more clearly the case
George Soros via barrack Obama would be my guess.
I believe, if you had a good forensic accountant, that you'd find those funds originating from the Oval Office.
Because they are following their leader.
Satan’s minions.
Democrats were NEVER and I repeat NEVER Pro Israel, they have always been on the side of Hamas..the one thing that Boehner did right for once was expose the left for what they are and I hope that maybe just maybe a few Jews in this country finally figured it out and will never vote Dem again
Nope. I’m with ya’.
