Pelosi: Republican Jews “Being Exploited” by GOP, and they’re “Smart People”; Claims Obama Has Visited Israel “Many Times”

Nothing this blithering libtard imbecile from San Fransicko says surprises me anymore. I’ve come to expect it, like the sun rising in the east and setting in the west.

We all know that the America-hating Marxist occupying the White House has yet to visit Israel since becoming president. He detests Israel. Muzz swine good, Jews bad.

Every time the dolt opens her rather poorly surgically enhanced piehole, the utter ignorance oozes out for all of us to read.

The interview was conducted by Bloomberg’s Al Hunt, another brain-dead libtard (who’s married to yet another Libtard dolt, Judy Woodruff), so it was one imbecile interviewing another imbecile. The amount of utter stupidity and ignorance in the room during this “interview” must have been off the charts.

Pelosi: Republican Jews ‘Being Exploited’
“And they’re smart people.”

By DANIEL HALPER

In an interview, House minority leader Nancy Pelosi said that she believes Republican Jews are “being exploited,” but she was sure to add, “And they’re smart people.”

Pelosi made the comments in response to whether Jewish voters would support President Barack Obama in the presidential election later this year.

“I think [Obama] will” win the Jewish vote, Pelosi said, when pressed on the subject. “I think that he will, because the fact is when the facts get out. You know, as many of the Republicans are using Israel as an excuse, what they really want are tax cuts for the wealthy. So Israel, that can be one reason they put forth.”

The interviewer then added, “That’s why some of the Republican Jewish supporters are really active.”

Pelosi responded, “Well, that’s how they’re being exploited. And they’re smart people. They follow these issues. But they have to know the facts. And the fact is that President Obama has been the strongest person in terms of sanctions on Iran, which is important to Israel. He’s been the strongest person on whether it’s Iron Dome, David’s Sling, any of these weapons systems and initiatives that relate to Israel. He has been there over and over again.”

Pelosi: President Obama’s Been to Israel ‘Over and Over Again’

By WILLIAM KRISTOL

Daniel Halper has called attention to Nancy Pelosi’s remarkable interview with Al Hunt on the topic of Barack Obama and Israel. I’d note one comment in particular: Pelosi’s claim that President Obama “has been there [Israel] over and over again.”

Wow. I’m involved with the Emergency Committee for Israel. We have an ad up in several states calling attention to the fact that President Obama, who’s been quite the world traveler, has never visited Israel as president. Did we make a terrible mistake? Were we unjust to President Obama? Do we have to pull down the ad?

No, no, and no. Contrary to Pelosi’s apparent claim, President Obama hasn’t been to Israel over and over again. He’s never been as president, which is certainly what Pelosi implied. Well, maybe he visited Israel “over and over” before becoming president, and that’s what Pelosi meant to say? No. When he was senator, Obama went on two trips to Israel, once with several other freshmen members of Congress, and then as a presidential candidate. And he’d never been interested enough in Israel to visit as a private citizen. So much for the notion that Obama’s been “over and over again.”

So Pelosi is wrong, and the Emergency Committee is right. But Pelosi’s resort to a whopper to try to reassure pro-Israel voters does suggest how worried Democrats must be about the reaction to Obama’s attempt to create distance between his administration and Israel, as Obama’s Israel policy gets more scrutiny.
