AIPAC’s competition — Obama to host Dems on Monday night of policy conference
Jewish Insider ^ | 3/22/19

Posted on 03/22/2019 7:09:00 AM PDT by markomalley

Former President Barack Obama will host a reception for freshman House Democrats on Monday evening at the home of Ambassador Esther Coopersmith in Washington, D.C, Jewish Insider has learned. Coopersmith, known as “one of the best at playing the Washington ‘networking’ game,” was appointed by Obama as a UNESCO Goodwill Ambassador in 2009.

On Monday night, AIPAC will also hold its leadership reception, perhaps AIPAC’s most-significant annual gathering, which typically puts the vast majority of members of Congress, AIPAC’s leadership, board and national council all in one room, during the same block of time.

Several progressive 2020 presidential hopefuls, including Senators Elizabeth Warren and Kamala Harris, have already announced they won’t be attending AIPAC’s policy conference this year. However, NYC Mayor Bill de Blasio is scheduled to speak at the conference on Monday.

On any given night in D.C. while Congress is in session, members typically attend several receptions, but this conspicuous scheduling conflict has caught the attention of D.C. insiders. Obama’s reception is called for 7:15PM, while the AIPAC gathering is from 6:45PM until 10PM.

Push and pull. The threats from MoveOn are pushing them away. A reception with Obummer is the corresponding pull.

The Antisemite Party is returning to its KKK roots.

Muslim-Communist-Atheist-Racist-Socialist Party.

Anti-Semite is merely an expression of what they see in Israel as examples of what they hate in America-the UK-Western civilization as a whole.

And Obola pushes every one of those buttons in his party’s war against (what used to be) America’s greatest values.

Trump and Palin rank among Israel’s biggest supporters.

Yet they never are asked to speak at these AIPAC events.

Why...?

I don’t get it.

American Jews should be wary of this. They're being used by the Democrats for money and votes. The base of the party increasingly hates them with a passion.

May God protect them from falling into the clutches of their enemies.

It's a conspiracy. Sitting Presidents generally don't show up. That's why VP Pence has spoken the last two years. Sarah Palin may be politically significant in your mind, but she's not. Sorry.

Obama is providing cover, so Democrat candidates can lie to their Jewish donors and supporters about why they spurned AIPAC, while gathering all the cred of spurning AIPAC with their muslim donors and supporters.

Yes, he is. And it will work to some extent since no one in the media would suggest what you did. I say some extent, because in the real, non political, world, this isn’t much. Not going, that’s being reported in the national press. Leftist media, it’s a good thing. Beyond that, not that many care. And an Obama party, cover when asked a question, but my guess in their hearts most progressives would rather party with Trump. Obama was boring, imo.
