Netanyahu Is The Thorn In Obama’s Side (Democrat Party’s Jewish caucus embarrassed?)
Breitbart ^ | 2/09/15 | Javier Manjarres

**SNIP**

Rep. Steve Israel (D-NY), who convened the private meeting with other lawmakers, including Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, is all but saying that Netanyahu is not welcome to address Congress.

“I don’t know whether the prime minister would consider not coming, but I think there’s some considerations about whether that should be considered,” Mr. Israel said. “Hopefully a way will be found to defuse an unnecessarily tense situation.”

Democrats are worried that Netanyahu’s speech will show the world just how big of a rift exists between the U.S. and Israel.

Talk about showing someone the back of their hand, as Florida Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz once stated. Netanyahu’s speech will surely be well received by the Republican-led Congress, and the optics of American lawmakers applauding Netanyahu’s remarks will weaken the standing around the world, of an already weak President Obama.

Democrats believe that Netanyahu’s speech will embarrass them and President Obama, even more than the embarrassment Obama has already caused the United States when he decided to negotiate with terrorists, and now with Iran, a state sponsor of terrorism.

RATS are drowning.

Democrats are playing right into Obama’s hands. He’s essentially brilliantly forced them to chose between him and Netanyahu. The goal is to have the Democrat Party become anti-Israel over the long run. He’s succeeding brilliantly.

The Jewish people need to wake the hell up or come forward and admit they care nothing about Israel or their history and future.

I think this may backfire on the Dems. Even the Rat side of my family is saying out loud that this is wrong and Bibi should be allowed to speak. I just hope Cruz or someone articulate grabs this by the horns and runs with it. You can bet Code Pink and all others will be allowed in to hector and try to shut him down. I pray that Bibi gas excellent security around him. He is going to need it, in the People’s house.

There is good reason, based on your words to have a general as one of the candidates.

Gen Franks?

LTG Boykin?

Obama is a thorn in the side of all decent people. Obama is one of Satan’s representatives on Earth.

Just last night a friend of mine said..”We need to decide if we are Jews or Democrats...”
Natuarally he is a solid conservative.

What is their problem with Netanyahu speaking again? Not sure I actually discerned any point there.

Other than Obama doesn’t want him to

...but I think there’s some considerations about whether that should be considered,” Mr. Israel said.

One should always consider the considerable.

What with the last couple days of coercing mere mortals like Steve Israel and DWS, Barack HUSSEIN Obama - or his éminence grise ValJar - seems to be would up pretty tightly at this stage. Team Muslim Brotherhood must be genuinely in the dark concerning how much Bibi knows (and what he might reveal) about their Iran-enabling escapades.

For the last six years, the Republican leadership has said almost nothing about Obama’s anti-Israel and anti-Semitic policies.

Boehner’s invitation to Netanyahu is a political stunt.

I don't think Boehner cares any more about the survival of Israel than Obama does.

JINO?

If you don’t support Bibi are you a JINO?

“Hopefully a way will be found to defuse an unnecessarily tense situation.”

It really is unnecessarily tense due to Obama's public tantrum.

So far only a handful of the most radical obamists have refused to attend. So I'd say Obama is losing this one.

But its a fight he didn't have to lose, because its a fight he didn't have to fight. All he had to do was politely accept Boehner's invitation to the address, or politely decline. Politely invite the prime minister to the White House or politely say nothing.

My suspicion is similar to others. Obama is about to give away the store to Iran and doesn't want it high-lighted.
