Krauthammer: If Obama Intervened To Have It Reinstated, How Did He Allow It To Be Omitted?(vid)

BAIER: Charles, we are just getting word from the Associated Press that President Obama personally intervened to change the Democratic platform language on Jerusalem and God. That is crossing the AP wire. So, obviously, it was important for the Obama campaign to deal with this.

KRAUTHAMMER: Well, if he intervened to have it reinstated, how did he allow his platform to omit it? And I would add, all that was reinstated is the language on Jerusalem. They did not restate language isolating Hamas, about no return to the '67 lines. And the Right of Return. All of that is left out of the platform. Quite troubling for pro-Israel community.

He's lying, as always, and Charles nailed him.

We can use this to pull the Dems off message for the rest of the DNC convention and beyond. Every Dem pol can be legitimately quizzed on it because it involves their whole party—especially tonight when they are trying glom off BJ’s faded glory. Up until now I thought Obama’s “you didn’t build that” line was the best gaffe we were going to get out of the Dems. I should have know n they would commit one en masse lol. Spread that video of the floor vote far and wide and turn it into an ad asap.

They are “Jewish” only to claim to be part of an ethnic minority and thus have some victim street cred, otherwise they would appear to just be boring white people using too many Yiddish words and pretending to be from New York.

The majority of my family immigrated to America in the mid 60s from Israel. When they arrived here they knew nothing about politics and were automatically registered as Dems. The last time my Mom voted Dem was for Bill Clinton, she has voted Republican ever since. She was shocked by this video, we still have many family members, on my parents side, in Israel. She doesn’t know what happened to the Democrat party, I told her what happened, its been taken over by Communist thugs, Socialists, and Anti Israel extremists, that is what happened

Does this mean that the Obama Administration is now officially recognizing that Jerusalem is the capitol of Israel? After all, Jay Carney refused to acknowledge that only a few months ago, and over a year ago the State Department removed all references to Israel’s capitol on their website as well.

That Kool-Aid Dems drink must be pretty tasty. Sheeesh.

I’m sure someone will break out a decibel meter and it’ll show it was even. Certainly NOT a 2/3 vote.

Sounded like 2/3 no's to me.

Why do over 60% of the democrats hate Israel and religious Jews?

Krauthammer was beside himself with joy the night Obama was elected in 2008. I’ll never forget that image from Fox.

Both of them stink. Romney didn’t mention the military people at all. He did not mention Afghanistan or Iraq either. That is a shame. I could care less about Obama because he stinks badly, but Romney is practically as bad.

Krauthammer is a legend. His observations are unique and enlightening. I always make a point to catch his every word.

So has King Barry evolved foward or backward on recognizing Jerusalem as the capitol? DemRats need a scorecard to keep up with their King who only evolves when ulterior motives are at stake.

Probably the same as his changing his views on Homosexual Marriage

The liberals’ version of God is ‘Government’ and their version of Jerusalem is the ‘United Nations’.
