Again, that doesn’t wash, unless Malcolm went and invited Palin without discussing it with the board in the first place. In which case, I would think he would be asked to resign. Somebody has to take responsibility for this and not just say, “oh, but they scared us by threatening to take away our tax exempt status.”
Once you give in to THUGS you'll have to keep giving in to them. They know NO BOUNDS!
As some of these threats were backed up with letters offering legal action that would really cost real money to defend, and that the Rally had become threatened in that 3 of the sponsoring organizations had decided to pull out if it were to go forward with Palin speaking, it was decided to accept reality and move forward knowing that the Democrats would pay a high price for this despicable act.
I believe he is right in his faith that these tactics will hurt their authors and he needed to keep his eyes on the Rally that is left because Iran is still choosing an Evil path and they must be confronted without regard to who's feelings are hurt. Malcolm trusts McCain and Palin's support and just as an unbearable bore can ruin a party and make everyone want to leave. The boorishness is not soon forgotten. These Democrats have soiled the Party's name and the name of the New York Jewish community, and the American Jewish Community and put Israel at greater risk for no gain, just deranged hatred and this will be remembered.
