Should Netanyahu Cancel His Speech?

Honestly we need to stop pandering Israeli. Netanyahu IMO is the Israeli version of Dick Cheney.

Not that I approve of either person, but that isn't exactly fair to Netanyahu. You can call him many things, but not a chickenhawk. Cheney, on the other hand, is a textbook example of a chickenhawk.

Highlights from Statement by Congressman Yarmuth why he won't attend speech.

Kinda funny given all the incredulous reactions by GOP supporters when the lack of applause for American progress was pointed at by others.


The petulance and double standards with these people is simply amazing, it's like the notion of a conflict of interest is completely alien to them. I can't wait to see these brats reap the whirlwind in 2016, and good riddance.

He should come and properly demonstrate both the dysfunction of the Republican US Congress and the Israeli subjugation of the US foreign policy.
Nothing like Israeli PM disrespecting the elected president of the United States and conducting foreign policy with the opposition Speaker of the House to make it crystal clear.

Update: With Sheldon Adelson taking attendance and using a post Republican SCOTUS Citizens United decision super PACs to bash those who don't attend or applaud a foreign leader challenging the President of the United States, well, this is just perfect.
If someone wanted to come up with a fictional story plot representing the full level of conservative legalized corruption of this country, they could hardly have done better.
They really dotted all the i's and crossed all the t's on this one.
