    This is not CIA--it is direct use of taxpayer money to fund a political campaign in a foreign country by the Democrats. The Democrats are counting on hatred of Jews allowing them to get away with it.

    Besides, I'm not convinced that 'frontpagemag' is passing along sound information.

    Likewise, Mossad has now openly denied that they were ever in any disagreement with Bibi on the sanctions, making Obama and Kerry out to be the liars.

    Reading between the lines methinks there may have been some deliberate misinformation passed along to do just that, smear the administration even more.

    David Horowitz does not deal in disinformation so you need more than your personal opinion to impeach the source. I know that this is tough for you as a Preterist--don't you say that you are the only true Jews? However, I do concede that Front Page Magazine is a conservative Jewish source.

    The fact is that Obama is acting illegally again to use tax money to fund an overseas political campaign.

    I don't know that it's illegal or that it's even true. That should definitely come to light on down the road if it is. We'll see.

    What in the world has my Preterism got to do with this? You've really one wild imagination. Is everyone that wants these negotiations NOT to be interfered with a Preterist? Sheesh, chill out and get rational.

    I don't know that it's illegal or that it's even true that there is anything wrong with a Jew addressing Congress, even if he is not a true Jew and even if he is not a Kentuckian.

    So what? He's the President. Part of his responsibility is to forge foreign policy. If we don't like it or feel like he's endangering the country, then impeach him.

    How is Boehner and members of the GOP gonna complain about Obama overstepping his bounds with Executive Orders and then turn around and sneakily do this?

    I'm glad that even the folks on FOX are giving him grief over this.

    Then the people in charge of the purse strings need to stop the flow of the money. Have they?

    Hatred of the Jews by whom? Why would the Dems be against a very large part of their voting base?

    If it's illegal then Congress should be attempting to stop it. Are they?

    Considering this course of action that Boehner has embarked, I don't think he cares one bit about this rule of law that the GOP is always going on about.

    Boehner and the Israeli ambassador need to be recalled.

    This is a political play by the PM of Israel to benefit himself at the expense of relations between Israel and the US. It is normal and expected diplomatic practice to notify the leader of another country, this time the president of the US, of negotiations for the leader of another country to the parliament/congress of the country to be visited. Boehner should have known better, but since when has he put the welfare of the USA above partisan GOP politics?

    He did know better. He just wants to undermine the President's Foreign Policy because he disagrees with it. It apparently means nothing to him that it is borderline treasonous to conspire with the leader of another nation against an elected President.

    Sorry . I just don't hate Jews like you do. And I consider them a valuable ally in the Middle East.

    Obama is to busy kissing the hands of Islamic leaders to question their history of not negotiating in good faith. He's rather sell us out to the people who want us dead the most than keep the faith with a valuable ally.

    Actually this is a result of the destruction of the relationship between Obama and Israel. Obama has ruined any chance for anything better at this point. The relationship between the US and Israel is fine.

    That's why I said it. If he's not breaking the law, it just is what it is.

    None of this matters. He's the President and he CONSTITUTIONALLY directs foreign policy. It is not the place of Congress anymore than it's his to make new laws.
