I actually taped ‘Fiddler on the Roof’ the other night. It’s my favorite musical, by far.

And actually, the plot of it was pretty dark as well - the czar was persecuting and ousting Jews from their homes. It ties in the Bibi’s theme today that they will no longer be passive and will fight back.

I guess this is as good a thread as any to point out this:

Last nite I was clicking to FOX and the Hannity show during commercials of what I was really watching.

Each time I clicked to FOX, I either saw:

1) Marco Rubio talking at CPAC
2) Jeb Bush talking at CPAC
3) Rick Perry talking at CPAC
4) Hannity speaking at CPAC

Hannity kept hyping his speech at CPAC, teasing that he would run it “next.”

Most of the time when I clicked to Hannity, it was him talking, a clip from his speech.

What was he saying over and over again in that clip?

That he wished the Tea Party and the Establishment would unite.

Never happen, because the only way the “Establishment”-—read GOPe-— would unite with the Tea Party type Conservatives is to have the Tea Party capitulate to the GOPe’s agenda.

Well a big LOL to that Mr. Hannity!

The GOP HATES the Conservative Tea Party agenda...the return to our Constitutional Republic!

Oh, where oh where have all the REAL men gone? I know we have many amongst us, but I fear what’s coming along behind us (and I’m 58). My dear husband who is now 72...a man of such integrity, strong character, conviction, strong values, morals, love of family, country, and the Lord. Again, I say, where oh where have all the REAL men gone? When I see the likes of the politicians ruining our country, absolutely totally RUINING our great country, I am so heart-broken, so sickened. I just need to tune it all out, for it’s enough to cause permanent depression.


They are still around but in smaller numbers than your husbands age group,.

Those who dare to spend out are silenced due to “ touchy/feeley” instant gratification nature of todays society and the desire of the other “ males” to in some cases show their sensitive side...

Bibi did a great job.

Anyone remember after Trauma fired Gen Mac_, and the general adressed a joint session of congress?

Truman went into the tank re approval, and he never recovered.

See my tagline.

Yasher Koach, Bibi!!!

Thank you for demonstrating the guts required for real leadership to an America long bereft of heroes.

Your speech was the most important one of modern times; truly historic.

The clear truth you spoke resonated throughout the chamber, touching us deeply.

It was a wonderful, articulate expression of powerful persuasion, making the direct, logical case against Iran's lunatic Mullahcracy acquiring nukes, and the pathetic, toothless, wretched deal our traitorous tin-pot emperor is waving to appease them.

Thank you for standing up fearlessly to defend Israel, despite the vitriol hurled against you by the vile filth infesting our highest office.

Your references to the joyous holiday of Purim, a Farewell to Arms Control, the enemy of our enemy is our enemy, the days of Jewish helplessness against oppression being finally over, and to Moses's last message of steadfast courage against danger, struck steel chords of resolve.

Never Again!!!

Y'vorechecha Adonai viyishmirecha. May G-d bless you & guard you.

Ya'er Adonai panav elecha veechuneka. May G-d shine His countenance upon you, and be gracious to you.

Yeesa Adonai panav elecha viyasem lecha shalom. May G-d turn His countenance toward you, and grant you peace.

Zei Gezunt!!!

That's why I never listen to Sean on the radio and, if I had a TV, I wouldn't watch him either. He has too much ego.

Maybe the greatest speech I have heard since the early Ronald Reagan days. Truly inspirational and historic.

OTOH it is saddening knowing what kind of POS we have in the WH.

"Netanyahu was still amazing. I wonder if Israel would allow me in?"

Yes he was and it makes it all the more painful to see Boehner to immdiately deal a body blow to freedom during the afterglow of comparing Netanyuahu to Obama. Israel might get a lot of volunteers out of this and it revives the question of how to fight and where to make a stand.

Yep
He’s a gop’er

He probably believed Boehner when he said he was the tea party before the TPM started

When it comes to Iran getting nukes, “There is no other hand!”

A nice asymmetry with us being lectured by a foreign leader at the same time our domestic leaders sell out the White (currently anyway) majority on immigration.

The irony is that as the United States becomes more third-world, the support for Israeli will collapse. It is only White Westerners would let an Israeli politician speak in this manner. It is unlikely too many Mexicans or Arab Muslims were hanging on Bibi’s every word. It is unlikely his successor would receive such a warm response in non-White America.

At some point in time the Tea Party has to get a divorce.

Very good and to-the-point speech.

Question: As far as the Democrats criticizing Boehner for inviting Netanyahu to speak in this setting, didn’t Pelosi do almost the same thing during the Bush Administration with some POS that they supported...or am I imagining things?
