My point in making this post is not the comments Memendez made that associate Obama with his Muslim compatriots, but how quickly the democrat party and the media turned against Menendez for speaking candidly.

This from USA Today:

WASHINGTON — --The Justice Department is expected to bring criminal charges against Sen. Robert Menendez, D-N.J., involving his relationship with wealthy donor Salomon Melgen and accusations that the senator improperly advocated for the business interests of the Florida eye doctor in return for gifts, according to a person familiar with the matter.

The charges are expected within the next few weeks, said the person who is not authorized to comment publicly. Menendez has previously denied wrongdoing.

Asked Friday whether he authorized corruption charges against the New Jersey senator, Attorney General Eric Holder said: "I can't comment on that."

What is notable here is that the assault on Menendez comes from allegedly raising money and taking gifts in a scurrilous way - a mainstay of democrat fundraising.

Bob knew he was about to be indicted, so he lashed out.

I don’t want to hear this stuff any more. I want to know what these DC pols are going to do domestically to stop and reverse the invasion of the US and internationally to disintegrate ISIS. That’s it....FOCUS

The indictment was directly related to his criticism of Obama.

Harry Reid is 100 times the crook that Menendez is alleged to be, but since Harry is 100% on board with Obama’s agenda, Reid will get a pass.

So what’s the full story behind this? Did Bob step out of the reservation first or did Holder go after him first?

A lot of this depends on which lobby group a particular congressperson gets campaign donations from. AIPAC or J-Street.

Because on the Iran issue and the Palestinian issue AIPAC and J-Street are opposing each other. Democrat Menendez gets his money from an AIPAC lobby group but Democrat Diane Feinstein gets her money from J Street(as does Sen Corker).

Yup, sounds like he was talking privately against the dear leader first and then with the homeland security program that if you see something you say something he got in trouble because the terrorism he saw was coming straight from the dear leader. Saying something got him in trouble, just as it would in Russia, China, or North Korea.

Could it be that we have a "MUSLIM president running interference for his radical MUSLIM brothers?"

It doesn’t take a modern day Nostradamus to know that soon after Iran creates a workable nuclear bomb, these bombs will start arriving in our ports inside container ships.
