Is Barack Hussein Obama more loyal to Iran than to the U.S. ?
Via Free Beacon: New York Times Ed Board Member Questions Whether GOP More Loyal to Israel than United States
A member of the New York Times editorial board suggested that pro-Israel Republicans were more loyal to Israel than to the United States on Friday.
“Should loyalty b 2 US or Israel? [U.S. and Israel’s] interests not always same: GOP, in Shift, Demand Lockstep Support for Israel,”tweeted Carol Giacomo, who covers foreign affairs issues for the editorial board. Giacomo linked to an article originally headlined “Republicans, in Shift, Demand Lockstep Support for Israel” that was published in the Times on Friday.

And that’s why the fifth estate of Tammy Army Members was born.
Seems to me that support for Israel has been a long-time bipartisan issue.
In some backward, off-handed, twisted way, I can see the legacy media begin to call the GOP and patriotic Americans (homegrown terrorist) for their “unnatural and dangerous support for the State of Israel.”
Will the madness never end.
