Chris Matthews Tells It Like It Is

[Where_r_my_Keys]

In can think of a great many things Americans should be ashamed of in regards to the government letting the head of state of an ally address Congress is not one of them.

Naturally, you've missed the point. It wasn't that he addressed Congress. Many have before. It was that he was invited by the Speaker of the House instead of the President (and at a time when the person in question was running for office in his own country), and it was done specifically to wrestle control of foreign policy from a sitting President, and secondarily to help a foreign leader win an election. That is not only a case of a foreigner interfering with the governance of this country, but a case of a political party using their position in Congress to interfere with a national election in a foreign land.

Israel has more at stake then anyone. Netanyahu was merely giving us their POV...and he made it clear that if they had to Israel was prepared to stand alone.

I laugh at this...

GOP invited him to boost his numbers in the poll, which is awful

But it has backfired, he lost his lead while in the US.

GOP are going to be some muppets if he looses.... At least the other side can talk to the President who stayed neutral

Do you have a link for that claim?

My guess is that you could find one quick down in the bowels of the internet, at the Democrat Underground... .

Netanyahu was invited as a Head of State of an important ally. He was invited because Obama wouldn't.

It appeared to me that Congress was very receptive of Bibi's speech and so was the man on the street. And Chris Matthews has the IQ of a dog turd.

He was doing much more than giving us his POV. He was trying to unduly influence Congress against the express wishes of the President of the United States, and he did it to as much to win points at home during an election as he was trying to win allies in Congress. I suspect that if he wants to stand alone on this issue, he may well have to do just that now, because he has lost any credibility he may have had with this administration.

This administration has lost all credibility with him... a long time ago. You don't get it. We're not talking petty politics. Netanyahu believes Iran can become an existential threat to his country. He is desperately trying to wield all his power into stoping Iran from getting the bomb. If that means he has to address Congress and tell it like he sees it - he's willing to do that, with all respect to Obozo, who doesn't even have Nobel intentions when it comes to Iran.

 

[Dot Com]

Certainly republicans should be ashamed of what they tried to do.

Netanyahu is completely devoid of objectivity, his position is subjective, blind, and extreme.

Consequently his opinion regarding talks with Iran have no merit whatsoever.

I think Repubs stopped having shame way back in 2008. They threw the baby out w/ the bath water when they declared their #1 priority- waging war against the Presidency.

This administration has refused to collaborate/work with him. That kind of makes him seek other options.

And if left to today's Dimocrats, they would be standing alone.

Call it what it is, "The Dimocrat Underbelly".

Bibi loves his country and will do anything to protect it while Obama is standing with Jihad

Yeah, seems right

If you mean that it refuses to simply bomb Iran's nuclear facilities, spreading contamination all across the country, instead of negotiating with them to resolve the issue, you are right. It has refused to collaborate with him.

So when Pelosi visited Assad against the wishes of the Bush administration you were equally outraged, yes?

Every American should be ashamed of what the Republicans tried to do:

But if the president were a Republican and the Democrats did this you'd be praising them for it.

Your analogy isn't even close to being relevant. Try again.

ROFLMNAO!

So Israel should be concerned with the fallout... LOL! With the fallout resultant from an Israeli attack upon Iran's nuke processing facilities?

LMNAO!


LOL!

Oh lordy... BASED UPON WHAT?

Except it is and you just proved my point that you're a dishonest and dishonorable partisan. Thanks for playing.

Brilliant!

The republicans tried to shove the iran deal up Obabbles ass. They were eminently successful. Arf, arf.
