President Obama's Middle East policy is in ruins. While the US continues to press Israel for a settlement freeze (and a freeze on Jerusalem) his strategy is falling apart piece by piece. He has turned the Israeli populace against him and strengthened the hand of Prime Minister Netanyahu. At the same time he has eroded his own support among American Jews and other US friends of Israel. Which is why...
Michel Bachmann has absolutely no sense of proportion in her personal statements (as a member of congress) or in what she encourages or allows happening around her. She is also an extraordinarily dishonest person. That first bit ... lack of sense of proportion (or shame) is well addressed in the following appeal from Representative Israel. The second will be clear if Bachmann or her associates at...
Rep. Steve Israel, among many others, is furious over the disgusting use of holocaust imagery during Michele Bachmann’s health-care protests earlier this week — you can watch a short video he recorded after the break. It’s hard to find fault with his anger. Quite frankly, I don’t feel the need to actually show the posters on this [...]
This is one of the signs displayed at Bachmann's rally against health care. Congressman John Kline told a radio audience that about one hundred members of the Republican Conference in Congress appeared in person in outside the Capitol to support the demonstrators. So: do lawmakers like Bachmann and her Republican colleagues have a responsibility to condemn the hate signs they see at these events? Or...

Representative Steve Israel is calling on Representative Bachmann to apologize for the use of Holocaust imagery during the rally she organized against health care reform on Thursday, November 5th.
By now you've all seen Michele Bachman's " press conference " yesterday that was really a racist rally. There were the typical stupid signs and chants and the screams of "Patriots!!" as if they were all on the set of 300 , replacing "Spartans!" with "Patriots!" Then there were the incredibly distasteful signs with pictures of dead Jews. I say, F*ck You to these...

As the Permanent Presidential Campaign rolls along, the most recent victims are the Republicans of New York's 23rd district... who awoke today to discover something truly remarkable about erstwhile congressional candidate Dierdre "Dede" Scozzafava -- that "lifelong Republican" who swore she would never leave the GOP -- and her seemingly inexplicable endorsement of the Democrat...
I don't know about you, but if I were Rep. Steve Israel, Senator Chuck Schumer or general all-around sleaze bucket Rahm Emanuel and I had just cut a deal with Dede Scozzafava to toss a lifetime of Republicanness away for some as yet undelineated bribe, one of the last people I would feed that info to would be anyone whose Rolodex even contained the phone number of weepy Republican blabbermouth Darrell...

McDougall, met with U.S. Rep. Steve Israel, D-Huntington, and
Democratic mayoral nominee Bill Thompson finally got the personal shout-out he had been pining for from President Obama, but he had to share the glory. The president acknowledged the comptroller from the stage at a low-dollar, health care reform-themed DNC event at the Hammerstein Ballroom tonight, telling the crowd: "Our candidate for mayor, my friend Billy Thompson, is in the house." But...
As the campaigns and surrogates of Conservative nominee Doug Hoffman and GOP candidate Dede Scozzafava trade increasingly pointed barbs , Democrat Bill Owens has released a fourth TV spot that is, for the most part, positive. The ad, which you can view here (the script appears after the jump), focuses on job creation. It does include headshots of both Scozzafava and Hoffman, and accuses them of wanting...
