party over country....
?We are pleased to inform you that the keynote speakers at the ?Stop Iran. Now!? Rally are confirmed to be Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton, Governor Sarah Palin and Nobel Laureate Elie Wiesel,? read an e-mail from a leader of a Jewish group planning the event.
But the curtain came down on the comedy sketch-turned-reality before the duo ever hit the stage: Clinton officials soon said they had not been told Palin would be on hand ? and that her presence, which made the event a political one, would mean the absence of the New York senator.
The McCain-Palin campaign has not yet said whether Palin herself will still be attending the event, but released a statement criticizing Clinton?s withdrawal. ?Governor Palin believes that the danger of a nuclear Iran is greater than party or politics,? said spokeswoman Tracey Schmitt. ?She hopes that all parties can rally together in opposition to this grave threat.?
""The Obama campaign in turn offered to send Congressman Robert Wexler of Florida to the event, but the appearance that the non-partisan group was aligning with the Republican ticket put the group and its president, Malcolm Hoenlein, under heavy pressure from Jewish Democrats, including members of the conference, members of Congress, and the liberal group J Street, not to give Palin a platform, sources said. Hoenlein told the McCain campaign that he would have to rescind Palin?s invitation or cancel the rally.
The organizers, I?m told, have formally disinvited all elected and political officials, but the move was about Palin""....
really disgusting...they were afraid to share a stage with palin?....it was not a partisan rally....thats what the dems wanted ....having palin there would have made it bi-partisan...
when both parties join together to voice a united opinion against ahmadinejhad,thats bi-partisanship...
whats this prove?...the democrats are far more eager to "work with" america's enemies than to work with republicans.....
i wasn`t much of a mccain guy,but,the more i read,the more i want to see obama bite the dust...
cowards...
