A large majority of Americans believe that Republican congressional leaders should not have invited Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu to speak to Congress without consulting the White House, a new CNN/ORC survey release on Tuesday found.
The poll found that 63% of Americans believe it was a bad move for congressional leadership to extend the invitation without giving President Barack Obama a heads up that it was coming.
Only 33% said the Republican move was the right thing to do.
The speech has become a point of contention between Republicans and Democrats. Obamas allies fear the trip could be used by Israel and by Republicans to undercut ongoing nuclear talks with Iran.

A large majority of Americans believe anything the media tells them, just so long as the media begins the report by saying “A large majority of Americans believe ...”
not believable
Do these “Americans” even know who Netanyahu is?
Separation of powers ignorance.
They probably only polled CNN viewers.
Time for one of those “Man on the Street” segments. Someone is bound to say “The leader of Japan in World War 2?” or something similar.
And nobody believes that CNN polls are real, anyways.
Well put.
People are insane.
Undercut what? Giving nuclear weapons to Iran like Obama wants? Sheesh!
so lets see here- in the past day CNN has a poll that shows the GOP would be to blame if DHS funding does not pass and the GOP is to blame for letting Bibi speak...
tomorrow CNN will have a poll showing the GOP is to blame for the cold weather and snow in the northeast...
That's the $64k question.
When did people start caring again what the majority of Americans want?
CNN/ORC............yeah. right!
There is no shortage of the brain dead. Most of those responding don’t even have a clue of what is going on.
I’m sorry I am totally calling BS on this.
How manyways?
Is this the same poll that was off by 12% during the midterms?
Pray America is waking
CNN polls are going the way of Newsweek polls. That is to say, a joke. They keep working to set opinions, then poll on them. I think the people polled all work in the CNN newsroom.
