God forbid anyone say anything critical of IsraelâŚ
Stay in your lane, Nancy.
Pelosiâs remarks come as Omar has continued to refuse [insert verb here] for comments last week
SoâŚevery interest group that is offended is now going to âpushâ for a resolution not to offend them? ARE YOU KIDDING??? There isnât a GROUP in the Congress that isnât âoffendedâ by something.
Great idea to give the political yakkers and the GOP another dayâs headline to pillory Omar with.
(I like Nancy and hope Moulton gets primaried, but this is beyond ridiculous.)
âTwentyâ
âNo, Tenâ
âEighteenâ
âNo, Twelveâ
âSixteenâ
âNo, Fourteenâ
âFifteenâ
DealâŚOr no Deal⌠Itâs a question as to whether the Dems are focused on taking out Trump.
âIt feels like weâre only able to call the use of anti-Semitic language by any colleague of ours if weâre addressing all forms of hatred and it feels like we canât say itâs anti-Semitism unless everyone agrees that itâs anti-Semitism,â Rep. Ted Deutch (D-FL), who is Jewish, lamented on the House floor Thursday morning.
I wonder how Deutch would respond if the resolution specifically declared that criticism of Israelâs Palestinian policy isnât de facto antisemitism.
Israel meddles in/manipulates our elections FAR, FAR more than Russia ever did/does. The fact is, the US decided long ago to blindly support Israel (regardless of the atrocities Israel commits) because AIPAC is nearly omnipotent in our nationâs affairs. Netanyahu is now indicted on criminal charges and blames liberals and the media for his victimizationâŚsound familiar?
SadlyâŚthis is starting to sounds like the Jewish version of Black Lives Matter. I truly wish we progressives and liberals would stop eating our own.
I donât see why Jewish people should feel that a comprehensive denouncement of prejudice makes their issues less specialâŚjust as, on a certain levelâŚsaying All Lives Matter was not meant to say Black Lives donât matter.
When you weigh what corruption we are trying to overcome in the government and oust from the White House, this in-fighting just plays into GOP hands.
We have this POS leading the country over a cliff, and weâre quibbling over resolutions about being offended. Iâm offended by this orange asshat every waking hour and many sleepless nights.
Get it together, folks, and focus on the actual problem.
We see so little diplomacy and careful choice of words we donât recognize them when they do appear. The Speakerâs lane, BTW, runs down two aisles.
âI see everything as an opportunity,â Speaker Nancy Pelosi told reporters on Thursday. âThis is an opportunity once again to declare as strongly as possible opposition to anti-Semitism, anti-Muslim statements, anti-white supremacist attitudes.â
She took a shot at President Trump and his equivocal statements after the deadly white supremacist march in Charlottesville, Va., in 2017: âThe president may think there are good people on both sides, we donât share that view.â
Preach!
I donât understand the full weight of having Eliot Engel, pro-Israel anti-Muslim war hawk as Foreign Affairs Committee chair. Yeah, the same guy who voted for the Iraq war resolution.
Anti-Muslim activist Pamela Geller was a speaker (see the video above) at a pro-Israel rally in New York City Sunday that also featured Eliot Engel, a New York Democrat. Engelâs presence at a rally that invited Geller, a blogger and activist whose bread and butter is casting aspersions on Muslims, raised eyebrows on Twitter and elsewhere.
I hope the language which follows on this issue is United Nations-level inclusive. If anyone can pull this off itâs Nancy
Yikes.
Whadayaknow? It worked.
Pelosiâs remarks come as Omar has continued to refuse to apologize for comment last week
All in a dayâs workâŚ
âI donât think that the congresswoman is perhaps appreciative of the full weight of how it was heard by other people, although I donât believe it was intended in any anti-Semitic way,â
Nancy, I donât think that you are perhaps appreciative of the distinction between anti-semitism and anti-zionism.
I think Nancy is doing an incredible dance on the high wire. You try it.
Pelosi: Omar Still Doesnât Understand âThe Full Weightâ Of Her Comments
I am good with that, forget the whole thing and move on, there is president that needs impeachinâ
More like the Jewish version of Blue Lives matter.
A Black Lives Matter analogy would work if it were Palestinians who were protesting
