Pelosi hears boos at AIPAC

Nancy, time to listen to people outside of SanFran, ya think?
by Craig Bachler


Members of the main pro-Israel lobbying group offered scattered boos to a statement by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) that the Iraq war has been a failure on several scores.
The boos, mixed with some polite applause, stood in stark contrast to the reception House Minority Leader John Boehner (R-Ohio) received minutes earlier. Most of the crowd of 5,000 to 6,000 stood and loudly applauded Boehner when he said the U.S. had no choice but to win in Iraq.
Pelosi and Boehner were speaking at the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) annual meeting. AIPAC has not taken a position on the war in Iraq or the supplemental spending bill to be considered this week by the House Appropriations Committee, but much of Boehner’s speech was about the future of the Iraq conflict.
Boehner sought to link the fight in Iraq to the future of Israel, as he said a failure in Iraq would pose a direct threat to Israel.

Here is my Nancy issue,
First, lets make it clear, I have mixed feelings on Israels behavior and their influence in our U.S. Government, but ....
Israel is the only democracy in the region. They, no matter what they do are always under the microscope and criticized for everything. They could pack up their country, move it to the North Pole and the Muslims extremist would follow them there and complain that they are on their land, they settled the North Pole first.
The security of the region depends on the U.S. winning in Iraq. Not only do we have a moral obligation to finish the job, we have an economic reason as well.
Then this liberal ***** comes along as speaker and starts blowing hot air up our ****. Nancy, go back to San Fransisco where your communist liberal thinking works. The rest of America doesn't care about you.
