I know no matter who I list you can just say it doesn’t count.

President Carter, Cynthia McKinney, Earl Hilliard, Jesse Jackson, Congressman James Moran…

AND anyone who says the USA went to war in Iraq for Israel…

AND the Democrats that accused Joe of split loyalties…

Moran. Now there is an outstanding example. Let’s compare and contrast, shall we?

When Moran made his remarks, what was the response of the Democratic leadership?

Now let’s take, oh, how about Bachman and her House Call. About a week after showing it she did admit some of the signs were inappropriate, but Moran also backed off. What’s relevant, here, is to point out that none - zero members - of the Republican leadership called her on it. The calls from political leaders were from Democratic leaders.

When similar events occur, and one side condemns and forces a retraction while the other sits in silence, the sides are not the same.
