    Furor over Omar puts spotlight on AIPAC

      Okay. We'll make a trade. You can do that if we can put Trump on a high speed boat to Russia.

            From yesterday, more Omar insanity:


            'NO' MEANS 'YES': Ilhan Omar Gets Nasty With Former Reagan Official



            Anti-Semitic Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) exploded at former Reagan administration official Elliott Abrams during a House Foreign Affairs Committee hearing on Wednesday as she called him by the wrong name and refused to accept one of his answers.

            "Abrams testified in front of the House Foreign Affairs Committee about the U.S. response to the crisis in Venezuela, which has collapsed under far-left policies that have decimated its economy and caused hyperinflation, starvation and medical shortages," The Washington Free Beacon reported. "The Trump administration is supporting Venezuelan opposition leader Juan Guaido and said authoritarian President Nicolas Maduro must step down and leave the country."

            "Mr. Adams, in 1991 you pleaded guilty to two counts of withholding information from Congress regarding your involvement in the Iran-contra affair for which you were later pardoned by President George HW Bush," Omar said. "I fail to understand why members of this committee or the American people should find any testimony that you give today to be truthful."

            "If I can respond to that," Abrams responded.

            "Ah, em, it wasn't a question," Omar fired back.

            Abrams again tried to respond and Omar rudely cut him off.

            "That was not that was not a question," Omar yelled. "That was, I, I reserve the right to my time."

            "It is not right that members of the committee can attack a witness who is not permitted to reply," Abrams said.

            "That was not a question, thank you for your participation," Omar arrogantly said.

            Omar later asked Abrams if a foreign massacre was a "fabulous achievement" and refused to accept his answer.

            "Yes or no, do you think that massacre was a fabulous achievement that happened under our watch?" Omar asked.

            "That is a ridiculous question," Abrams responded.

            "Yes or no?" Omar yelled.

            "No!" Abrams fired back.

            "I will take that as a 'yes,'" Omar shockingly responded.

              Omar did a great job at calling out convicted criminal Abrams for some of his many crimes and immoralities. It's disgusting that criminals like that aren't in prison and are still allowed to be major players in US foreign policy.

                Thank you for confirming just how far off base Omar is in her tirade since as usual anything you support is a great indicator that it bears no resemblance to reality.

                  Omar is a blatant anti-Semite her pathetic grilling of Abrams shows once more just how unqualified she is for the House Foreign Affairs Committee.

                    But the Dems need a lot more just like her to show how lost they have become.

                      Their pretty much giving her free reign to vent her poisonous bile ought to speak volumes in itself.

                        But they have been so "you can't be islamaphobic", they dare not try to rein her in.

                          They gave her a token "you should say you're sorry' line. But they didn't remove her from the committee assignments, despite her history of anti-Semitism.
