Stop Talking About Proportion’: John Fetterman Defends Israel Against Accusations of Genocide In Fiery Speech
mediaite ^

Posted on 01/11/2024 11:01:00 AM PST by MNDude

“Who are we? Who are they really fighting? It’s a group of cowards. They hide in tunnels. They hide behind civilians. They attack, kill, and usually children murder. And they do that. Stop talking about proportion on that. They shot their best shot on October 7th, and they would have taken more lives if they could’ve done that,” Fetterman said in a fiery speech before the group.

“But they couldn’t do it. And now let’s also talk about that. Now we’re talking about genocide. And now South Africa is now bringing that kind of a trial. Maybe South Africa, maybe ought to sit this one out where they’re talking about criticizing, given the history there. Sit it out,” Fetterman added to applause.

See 39... you were lied to about this guy by the establishment GOP and their punditry... people like myself who tried to tell you the truth about this guy were attacked or ignored.

He is a liberal, he is a Democrat, but he is not, and never was a left wing whackadoo lug that they tried to sell you he was.

If he has truly improved his ability to communicate, which it certainly appears he has lately, then he’s going to be a Senator from PA for a long time.

He was never the left wing whackadoo the GOP establishment and punditry tried to sell him as... Tried to tell folks that, they didn’t want to listen... would rather listen to empty headed puppets like Hannity et al repeat lies that they wanted to hear than actually hear the truth.

I do not agree with Fetterman politically he is a democrat, and he is a leftist, but he is not a completer nutter leftist.. in fact even at the peak of his stroke he had more thought processing and intellect that a good number of elected democrats.

Nothing that has come out of his mouth in recent weeks would surprise anyone who actually known and seen him in action over the years... only ones shocked are the ones who swallowed the lies the GOP and their stooges in the punditry tied to sell them in order to try to get a complete and total hack and turd named OZ elected.

OZ never had a prayer, worst candidate I have ever seen to run for statewide office as a Republican.

Not only was OZ destined to lose, the burned more than $100M pushing that turd, that could have been spent to help win tight congressional races.

Only reason he didn’t lose by double digits was due to Fetterman’s inability to properly campaign due to his health.

Insurrection? Genocide? Two words that no longer have meaning.

What happened to our GOP Turk we were backing? How come this guy is so much further to the right of the Turk?

For years, various folks have written that “liberalism is a mental illness.”

Fetterman received some sort of inpatient mental health treatment. Even if he’s not 100% cured, he seems to be enormously better off.

What was the treatment?; and, how do we deliver it to most of DC, university faculties, the entire west coast, urban areas, etc.?

Fetterman can count votes even if he’s brain damaged.

There are hardly any Muslims in Pennsylvania.

I think the real Fetterman died and was replaced by a not-so-lookalike

It might be a revelation to some, but Oz was a Trump creation. Trump pushed him on Pennsylvania saying, and I quote, “he’s on t.v. and people like him.” Plus, Oz sucked up to Trump which was all he needed to do to get Trump’s backing.

Fetterman was the popular, maverick mayor of a broken-down steel town near Pittsburgh. He knows the psyche of the blue collar, ethnic voters who populate the area. They don’t go for left wing, pinko crazies. No doubt, Fetterman absorbed some of their outlook on politics. If you’re familiar with the film “Deer Hunter” you’ve seen the patriotic types who are similar to Fetterman’s former western Pennsylvania constituents. I don’t think he’ll become a Washington D.C. insider.

I seriously do not get where Fetterman is coming from or what happened to him.

There was a conversation between Caroline Glick and Douglas Murray where it was mentioned that many people went to sleep politically woke on October 6 and by October 8 realized that they were Jewish.
