McConnell blasts Pelosi for failed anti-Semitism vote
The Washington Times ^ | March 7, 2019 | Stephen Dinan

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell blasted House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Thursday for scratching a vote to condemn anti-Semitism, saying it was embarrassing that such a move had proved too controversial for Democrats.

“Apparently even non-binding symbolism is too controversial within their own caucus,” Mr. McConnell said as he opened the Senate floor.

He specifically called out “the speaker’s new far-left Democratic majority” as the hurdle to condemning anti-Semitism.

Mrs. Pelosi and her top lieutenants had been poised to hold a vote Wednesday on a resolution written in the wake of controversial comments by Rep. Ilhan Omar, who suggested lawmakers that supported Israel held dual allegiance. The draft resolution, while not mentioning Ms. Omar by name,...

It appears that the long-anticipated moment when the Dems throw the Jews under the bus has arrived, in dramatic fashion. I wonder if the Dem 2020 convention will feature its own pogroms?

In 1984 with with Jesse Jackson the Dems had stage III cancer it just metastasized to stage four. If you don’t cut it out you die.

I wonder if the cultural Jews from the Upper Westside and others in that particular demographic (rich-cultural-otherwise-mostly-secular Jewish folks) will even care?

or will they continue to automatically vote ‘rat? I suspect the latter. I also strongly suspect that their socialism easily wins out over their Jewish roots at the ballot box.

Nagative Nancy needs to turn her beloved gavel over to “the future face of America.” The face that “sparkles”, not melts.

“It appears that the long-anticipated moment when the Dems throw the Jews under the bus has arrived, in dramatic fashion.”

I think the exact moment was during the Democrat convention when they booed and hissed at the recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital.

The Democrats are the official party of antisemitism, which is fair, because they are the party of the KKK, putting Japanese Americans in camps (and Italians and Germans, but they don’t get much press).

IMHO, the House Republican Caucus should quickly pass that “Anti-Semitism Resolution” by itself — thus illustrating that the Democrats are dis-functional.

And demonstrating that Democrats have been corrupted by lush “asian” baksheesh...

Will people of the Jewish faith wake up and notice?

I agree completely. Liberalism is a mental disorder of the highest degree.

Tyrannical liberals have always loved the attractive Latino dictator — Castro and Che Guevara, for example.

I suppose for the 21st century, they’re going for the woman dictator.

Why would any Jew support the Democrat Party?

People of the Jewish faith are long woken up.

It’s Jewish people that have no Jewish faith that worry me. They do stupid crap, and we Orthodox get put in camps.

And the (spin) Doctors of the Main Stream Media will convince most of the Low Information Voters that there's nothing there, that all this caterwauling is the result of a right-wing conspiracy. And the useful idiots who are supporting this will be like the frog put in cool water and placed over an open flame.

Being selfish, but I'm hoping that it takes another 20 years for this Sharia Law crap to take hold in the U.S. At my age, I don't expect to be around or really care by that time.

I saw an excellent post on this on another site; I’ll cut and paste it.

Hold up.
