Admin officials told Bibi that if he's reelected, his egregious ambo to US, Ron Dermer, has to go.

Not sure of her creds. But, there it is.

Hat tip.

his egregious ambo to US Ron Dermer, co-plotter with Boehner, has to go

Is that sorta like Obama's egregious interference in the Israeli elections?

I wonder what mark levin is gonna say as the ambassador goes on his show every once in a while.

Will do. If you get rid of Valerie Jarrett first.

How does any country get to muscle another country in the selection of their own ambassador?? Especially when the current ambassador is straight as an arrow in his defense and representation of Bibi and of Israel, as if they are of one mind.

Dermer is a star and articulate as anyone could hope for in dealing the Netanyahu hand to this twisted White House.

If he must go, Bibi must send them someone rude, scowling and just as tough.

What’s an “ambo” ? Since I don’t see that as shorthand for “ambivalence”... Amorphous Bollocks?

Eff the Kenyan anti-Christ.

Abassodor to the US from Israel.

Ambassador

What does “ambo” mean?

Ron Dermer... Read his bio, pretty impressive. Bibi needs to tell Obama to go... well, you know.

Ronald "Ron" Dermer (Hebrew: רון דרמר‎, born 1971) is an American-born Israeli political consultant and diplomat who currently serves as the Israeli Ambassador to the United States. He previously served as Israel's economic envoy to the United States from 2005 to 2008, a position requiring him to give up his American citizenship, and subsequently served as senior advisor to current Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for four years. On July 9, 2013 Dermer was confirmed as Israel's ambassador in Washington, replacing Michael Oren.[1] Early years[edit] Ron Dermer was born and raised in Miami Beach, Florida, as the younger son of Yaffa Rosenthal, who was born in Mandatory Palestine and moved to Florida with her parents shortly after Israel won its independence, and Jay Dermer, a trial lawyer from New York City, who became mayor of Miami Beach in the late 1960s. Dermer went to a Jewish day school. In 1984, two weeks before his bar mitzvah, his father died of a heart attack. His brother David Dermer, a Democrat like his father, also served as mayor of Miami Beach, and helped reelect Republican President George W. Bush in Florida.[2] Ron Dermer took a job under Frank Luntz in 1994 to help design the Contract with America.[3] Dermer earned a B.S. in Finance and Management from the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania in 1993, and a degree in Philosophy, Politics and Economics (PPE) from Oxford University in 1996.[4] In 1995, while still at Oxford, he helped manage Natan Sharansky's Yisrael b'Aliyah 1996 Knesset election campaign.[5] In 1996 Dermer moved to Israel,[6] and in 1997, he began the process of becoming an Israeli citizen.[2] On August 9, 1998,[7] he married artist Adi Blumberg, the daughter of then chairman of the Bank of Jerusalem who had grown up in the Old City of Jerusalem. The wedding was presided over by Rabbi Adin Steinsaltz.[2] Adi Blumberg died in February 2000.[7]

Political career[edit] Dermer worked as a political consultant for Natan Sharansky in the 1999 campaign, and from January 2001 for nearly three years he wrote a column "The Numbers Game" for The Jerusalem Post.[2] In 2004, he and Sharansky co-wrote the best-selling book The Case For Democracy: The Power of Freedom to Overcome Tyranny and Terror, famously endorsed by then US-President George W. Bush.[8] In 2005, while Benjamin Netanyahu served as Finance Minister under Ariel Sharon, Dermer was appointed economic envoy at the Israeli embassy in Washington, a post for which he had to give up his American citizenship.[2] In 2008, after his return to Israel, he became adviser to Netanyahu, who became Israel's prime minister in April 2009.[9] Dermer is considered Netanyahu's closest adviser and strategic consultant. According to The Jerusalem Post, he "runs much of the interference with the White House, and is intimately involved in the diplomatic process with the Palestinians, [... and] writes many of Netanyahu’s speeches".[10]

Israeli newspaper Makor Rishon reported on December 28, 2012 that Dermer's name was being floated as a potential replacement for Michael Oren, Israel's Ambassador to the United States. The Prime Minister's Office declined to comment on the report and the Embassy of Israel in Washington spokesman called the report "baseless."[11] In March 2013, Dermer left the Prime Minister's Office after four years as Netanyahu's senior adviser.[1] On July 9, 2013 the Prime Minister's office announced that Dermer would replace Oren as Israel's ambassador to the United States.[12] According to the Israeli daily Haaretz, Oren, who wanted to keep his job, was removed because Dermer wanted the envoy post.[13]

Regional observers and Washington political analyst see Dermer's appointment as a "mixed bag" for U.S.–Israel relations. According to Ari Shavit, Dermer is one of the few people Prime Minister Netanyahu trusts enough for the job, and Dermer's understanding of the American political system gives Netanyahu a way to navigate through Washington tactfully. On the other hand, Barak Ravid said, Dermer is suspected by key White House aides Denis McDonough and Ben Rhodes of lobbying members of Congress against President Barack Obama's positions.[3]

In January 2015 the Israeli Civil Service Commission censured Dermer for taking part in political campaigning for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in violation of Civil Service rules.[14] The U. S. Administration took the unusual step of sharply criticizing the ambassador, after he played a key role in having Benjamin Netanyahu invited, apparently without White House knowledge, to address Congress on Iran, in what the Administration regards as a breach of protocol. A spokesman said that the ambassador repeatedly put Netanyahu’s political interests before those of the relationship between Israel and the United States.[15]

In 2002 he married Baltimore-born Rhoda Pagano, who had been a clerk for Israel's top judge. They have five children and live in Jerusalem.[16]

Wouldn’t that be “Abass”?

The man-child in the WH is having a snit fit.

ABBAs?

i gotz me one oh doze, and the cup to go with it! SWEET!

Oh. Well, still, would that not be “Amba” or “Ambas”?
