Weiner: White House should stop 'temper tantrum' on Israel
Politico.com ^ | 03/16/10 | Ben Smith

New York Rep. Anthony Weiner is adding his voice to the criticism of the White House's response to an ill-timed Israeli construction decision, and in sharper terms than his colleagues.

“The appropriate response was a shake of the head – not a temper tantrum," Weiner said in a statement to be released shortly. “Israel is a sovereign nation and an ally, not a punching bag. Enough already.

Uh oh, Weiner's good buddy (and best-est friend to his fiancee), Hilary Clinton, won't be too pleased to hear this.

Well for cry-baby Weiner, this is how the rest of us feel about the anointed one and old hatchet face pushing through health care. Live with it! Maybe you will eventually get to like the fact that Obama is selling Israel down the drain.

This is like China complaining on behalf of Mexico about us building a Federal Housing project in South Central LA.

Used to bother me...as a supporter of Israel I couldnt understand the Jewish RAT voters...boggled my mind. But now a registered Democrat is just that...an enemy of the USA and as evil as any enemy in history. Let them rot.

Well, they're certainly engaged, but I'm not entirely convinced about the latter. One word - "beard", just saying.

Therein lies the motivation of the common politician.

Very appropriate. My impression is that we don't really know which nation, Mexico or the US of A, owns LA, either.

He is Weiner (pronounced like someone who complains). Sausages are wieners (from Wien, pronounced like someone getting off breast-feeding).

Rep. Anthony Weiner’s then girflriend, Huma Abedin, stood by her man when he announced he was running for mayor.

I looked at the photo.

She was in fact standing as far from her “weiner” as she could possibly get.

BTW

Doesn’t Hillary already have one son in law like this?
