Mitt Romney at the Western Wall

Unlike the party’s 2008 platform, the Democrats 2012 platform does not specifically mention Jerusalem as the capital of Israel, and now Mitt Romney is firing back.
“It is unfortunate that the entire Democratic Party has embraced President Obama’s shameful refusal to acknowledge that Jerusalem is Israel’s capital,” Romney said in an e-mail to reporters.
Mitt Romney at the Western Wall
In 2008, the Democratic platform stated: “Jerusalem is and will remain the capital of Israel. The parties have agreed that Jerusalem is a matter for final status negotiations. It should remain an undivided city accessible to people of all faiths.”
Earlier this year, White House Deputy Press Secretary Josh Earnest stated “the capital [of Israel] is something that should be determined in final status negotiations between the parties. I’d remind you that that’s the position that’s been held by previous administrations, both Democratic and Republican.”
The Jerusalem Embassy Act, which calls for Jerusalem to be recognized as the capital of Israel, was passed by Congress in 1995 but has never been implemented. Presidents Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, and now Barack Obama have viewed it as a congressional infringement on the executive branch’s constitutional authority over foreign policy.
“Four years of President Obama’s repeated attempts to create distance between the United States and our cherished ally have led the Democratic Party to remove from their platform an unequivocal acknowledgment of a simple reality,” Romney’s statement read on Tuesday. “As president, I will restore our relationship with Israel and stand shoulder to shoulder with our close ally.”
Not this Jew :)
So supporters of Israel “have” to vote for Romney?
WTH? do you mean?
I expect no less.
And from O and the obamists, we already know whose side they are on.
Yeah, there are a lot of websites where I have to tread very lightly. Apparently, freedom of speech is mostly a lip-service thing.
Well, good for Jew. :)
“Romney is a Christian.
Obama is a Muslim.
Remember this on Nov. 6th.”
Mormons are NOT Christian. Let’s leave the Mormon pimping to specifically Mormon threads.
RATS are NOT Kosher, esp. this coming Nov. 6th. We’re working on our duped and misled brethren, with some success.
The rest can go live in Chicago.
Of course, both parties are “committed to a two state solution,” IOW meddling in the affairs of the Jews. It’s time to cut them off their leash and let them take care of business, just like any other nation on the Earth would take care of business.
Romney just needs to stick to fire back on every thing economical.
They better wake up and smell the coffee Obama and his regime are not on their side. Sad very sad

And Mormon bashing is okay on non-Mormon threads? I am not “pimping” anything or anyone. Here’s some education for many (maybe even you):
Excerpt:
Mormons self-identify as Christian, though some of their
beliefs differ from mainstream Christianity. Mormons
believe in the Bible, as well as other books of
scripture, such as the Book of Mormon.

And Obama has self-identified as Muslim.
Oh my, for the first time I like something about Romney.
IMHO, any American Jew that votes for Obama is guilty of treason to two countries, Israel & the USA!!! End of story!!!
Thank you Mitt.
May God share His strength.

Well, stick a fork in the DNC. They will soon be shifted to the trash pile of history along with everyone else who has turned on Israel.
Going back deep into the Old Testament, the Jews have had a hard time figuring out who their friends are - ever since they turned away from the God of their fathers. But they do have a Friend. His name is Jesus, the Messiah, and sometime in the near future they will realize this and come to Him. Israel will then fulfill God’s plan for them from the very beginning - proclaim the name of Jesus to the whole world. They will die for it, but will be greatly honored in Heaven.
