If congressional Republican wanted to make the ongoing controversy surrounding Benjamin Netanyahu even more of a partisan food fight, this is clearly the way to do exactly that.
Senate Republicans on Thursday moved to officially welcome Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to the U.S. ahead of his planned speech to Congress next month, the latest development in a saga that has roiled politics in both countries.
Almost all GOP senators were listed as co-sponsors of a resolution by Sen. John Cornyn (R., Texas) saying the Senate “eagerly awaits the address of Prime Minister Netanyahu before a joint session of the United States Congress” and reaffirms the U.S. commitment to standby Israel in “times of uncertainty.”
“During this time of such great instability and danger in the Middle East, the United States should be unequivocal about our commitment to one of our closest and most important allies,” Mr. Cornyn said in a statement.
How subtle.
If Cornyn is expecting unanimous support for his resolution, he’s likely to be disappointed. As of last night, 22 congressional Democrats – 19 in the House and three in the Senate – have announced they will not attend the Israeli prime minister’s scheduled speech on March 3, and that number continues to steadily grow.
Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), meanwhile, argued yesterday Democrats will send an unwelcome signal to “the terrorists in all parts of the world” if they stay away from Netanyahu’s speech, adding just a little toxicity to an already depressing debate.
Also this week, former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright told msnbc’s Andrea Mitchell that Netanyahu “is interfering in our internal affairs” in inappropriate way.

Why do Democrats hate Jews?
True to form for MSNBC: 95% sneering, 4% unsupported or pointless assertions, 1% fact (e.g., that Netanyahu is Jewish).
I hope that all of the anti-Semitic dirtbags (Democrat congressmen) stay away. That would be a good thing. Bob
” Why do Democrats hate Jews?”
The Left started hating Jews years ago, because they are successful financially, as a group.
And the democrats will not loose any money from their Jewish benefactors.
The REAL question is why Jews VOTE for Democrats?
Get the impeachment articles ready to be voted on.
Because the left, many blacks, muslims and most of the world does. They are also (once again) going against mainstream America.
repubs telegraph again ?
now I’m guessing RAT staffers will fill the seats and disrupt somehow.
I’d be surprised if the GOP hadn’t ALREADY invited all the leaders of Jewish political organizations for photo-ops with Netanyahu after his speech.
Why give goose-stepping Dems a “free pass”?
Well,l I know who are the 22 most favored persons who will be signed up as guards at the ISIS/HAMAS run concentration camps.
The use of the word “depressing” as an adjective by the propaganda ministry, errr MSNBC, is all I needed to see. In the words of Special Agent Smecker, “Whaddya know, Freud was right”.
MSNBC no longer even tries to hide their anti-semitism.
By the way, it’s funny to me that MSNBC is still mentioning Madeleine Albright’s comments, like it’s a feather in their cap or something, rather than a clear sign of the left’s desperation.
“The Left started hating Jews years ago, because they are successful financially, as a group.”
I always wanted to hear the real reason why Roosevelt didn’t bomb the death camps.
You should read most of the comments at the link! These people are insane! Things like -all the gems should attend, turn their chairs around to show their backs, and wear headphones so they can’t hear Bibi.-! What a visual that would make! These people are insane!
A former friend of mine, Jewish and very liberal, told me flat-out that Israel has no right to exist. Leftism is a mental disorder.
I can’t figure that out for the life of me.
