Virginia Democratic Congressman Jim Moran is getting slammed by fellow House Democrats over comments that pro-Israel forces in the U.S., "pushed the Iraq war from the beginning." The Politico newspaper reports Government Reform Committee Chairman Henry Waxman called Moran's remarks "deeply offensive."
A group of 16 Jewish Democrats wrote what is described as a withering letter to Moran, saying in part, "The idea that the war in Iraq began because of the influence of Jewish Americans is factually incorrect and unfortunately fits the anti-Semitic stereotypes some have used historically against Jews."
But Moran is not backing down. A spokesman conceded that the congressman's comments may have been "unnecessarily harsh," but said the criticism was directed at a lobbying organization, not a community of people.

Staying w-a-a-a-y out of the way of this one and any office-seeking Republicans are urged to do the same.
First of all he's a whoremongering, wife-beating, child-molesting, drunken sot who takes campaign funds from AlQaida affiliates and hates Jews.
I lived in his district a long time and then one of the guys in the state legislature took pity on us and moved us to Tom Davis' district.
The Democrats in Moran's district love him ~ in part because compared to most other Dems he sometimes sounds Conservative and escaped courtmartial when in the Marines.
If Jim got caught in bed with two dead girls and three live boys the Dems would still vote for him.
Isn’t Jim Moran that pro-islam Dhimm who was islam’s biggest enabler in Congress before Ellison of Minnesota was elected?
Jim Moran, my Congressman, is a provable piece of sh*%!
Truly....this degenerate should be drummed out of the halls of Congress.
Worst. Congressman. Ever.
Just remember, James P. Moran is a Golden Gloves Marine boxer.
His response to anyone who disagrees with him is,
“Wanna step outside?”
Too bad he couldn’t get caught in a sting operation! Where ARE those airport cops when you really need ‘em?
Yes, very true... And so did a lot of other people.
HA...just too funny.
I'd welcome this challenge.
He's also a coward, and has a total mind block.
Oh, yeah, and for all his whoremongering it is highly doubtful he has any working equipment. That’s why he’ll never get caught hanging around public toilets ~ he has no needs (anymore).
“He’s also a coward, and has a total mind block”
What a perfect description of an habitual wife-beater!
You nailed it! Moran is trash.
;^)
Hmmm, who to believe, Waxman or Moran. They are both a POS, and one of them is lying. Better stay clear of this.
From this, I gather that it's OK in the Democrat party to be quietly anti-semitic -- as the party clearly is -- but you're not supposed to make it a public issue.
Otherwise, Waxman would have found Moran "deeply offensive" years ago.
Murtha, Moran, Webb, Oswald - all EX-Marines.
And if you don’t like being called EX-Marines, name the time and place and I’m there tyo wipe the floor with you.
Semper Fi to all TRUE Marines!
This Army Vietnam Vet says with all possible worship,
God bless you brave and true Marines. Semper Fi!
