It is a strategic alienation of dems core constituents to get out with the old and in with the new. Starting with outright threats to shut down the coal industry and the elimination of the possibility of hundreds of thousands of blue collar and union jobs through various regulations- like the Keystone pipeline, dems are sorting out the wishy washy people who may vote one way or another based on how policies may affect their pocket books.
They’re going for the hard core cool-aide drinkers who will vote on pure ideology without regard for social impact or consequence.

This is what I have a hard time understanding.
"Republicans More Favorable to Israel, Netanyahu
The Romney-Netanyahu meeting may also help put the Republican candidate in a positive light among Republicans. That is because Republicans are especially positive toward Israel – with 80% viewing the country favorably, compared with 71% of independents and 65% of Democrats, according to the February poll.
Republicans also show much greater affinity toward Netanyahu than Democrats do. The July poll finds 50% of Republicans viewing him favorably and 16% unfavorably, for a net favorable rating of +34. In contrast, Democrats’ opinions of Netanyahu are more negative (31%) than positive (25%). Independents’ opinions are slightly more positive than negative."
More of the Democrats have a negative view towards the “zionist entity” than Republicans. Obama is going to let the Iranians get the bomb. Yet despite this, the Jews can be taken for granted by the Democrats.
This election will decide the survival of Israel and the Jews are backing the wrong party. It’s amazing that an otherwise intelligent people can be so mindless and foolish.
I thought this article interesting. It might explain why the former Leader of the House is defensive. Conservative Jewish pro Israel groups are out in force this election. Here of late they have been particularly active, trying to win support for the GOP candidate. It seems this election go around past jewish defenders of President Obama are less interesting in becoming involved in the Presidential race.

This is the type of hyperbole that drives me crazy…and has me wishing that November 7 would hurry up and get here.

Obama’s position is that Israel doesn’t have a capital right now and that Jerusalem is up for grabs to the Hamas/PA. Not surprising when his secretary of state’s chief aid(Huma Abedin) is an Islamist from the Muslim Brotherhood. Fortunately the Islamist infiltration of the military is already being investigated:
But the state department itself has been infiltrated at the highest levels. The line between appeasement and collaboration is thin. The Obama administration has an alliance with the Muslim Brotherhood and Obama’s foreign policy reflects that alliance. These are the facts, as you say mufasa.
IMO the Israeli Gov is very pro Republican because the Republicans want to maintain our Social program designed to make Israel superior to it’s neighbors . So to help the Republicans Israel will attack the Democrats as being subversively Muslim. This stuff is simple

Thanks, glad you figured it all out in two sentences.

Hmmm. Let’s compare:
Israel is a democracy that protects the rights of arab-Israelis, who are part of the government.
The Palestinian Authority is a corrupt authoritarian regime who kills non-muslims and demands that no Jew may live there.
Israel protects gays, women, whatever.
The PA kills gays, puts women in burkas, and kills anyone who doesn’t fit its agenda.
Israel wants peace and is happy for the PA to have its own state, provided they don’t launch rockets from it.
The PA wants the Jews dead, and refuses to recognize Israel as a country.
Israel makes all sorts of cool stuff that makes life better, from the cell phone to new drugs.
The PA invents new ways to hide bombs and kill civilians.
Israel has built an economy and made the desert bloom again, largely with its own money.
The PA has taken massive amounts of foreign aide and built bombs and hid money in its corrupt leaders’ Swiss bank accounts.
Yeah, it’s horrible for the Republicans to pick the Israeli side. All cultures are equal.

What “social program” are you referring to? Do you mean the camp David accords? They were negotiated by President Jimmy Carter, a democrat and ideological predecessor to President Obama. Part of the agreement was that in exchange for the Israelis giving away half of their country to the Arabs, the US would supply military aid to Israel. The same agreement also provided American military aid to Egypt.
If you don’t like the deal blame the Democrats, because they are the ones who made it.
I do not know if the numbers are factual but 114 billion is what America gives Israel. I personally do not care who started it but that is the BIG SOCIAL program I was referring too .

The USA funds the Palestinian general fund in a far greater amount than it does Israel.
THe USA matches military aid to Eqypt, Jordan, et al, in the exact same amount given to Israel.
