A large majority of Americans oppose House Speaker John Boehner’s invitation for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to speak before Congress on the international negotiations with Iran, according to a new poll.
The CNN/ORC poll found that 63 percent of Americans disagreed with Boehner’s decision to extend the invitation without consulting the White House, while 33 percent said it was the right thing to do.
Even among Republicans, only a narrow majority supported Boehner’s invitation — 52 percent — while 45 percent did not. Democrats and independents overwhelmingly opposed the invitation: Democrats, 81 percent to 14 percent; independents, 61 percent to 36 percent.
The poll, conducted Feb. 12 to 15, surveyed 1,027 U.S. adults. Its margin of error is 3 points.
That 33% is what keeps this country in the dark ages. It’s too bad they vote so consistently.
Where are the knobs!?!?!
Moderately sane Americans across the political spectrum really don’t like it when a foreign politician attempts to interfere in our domestic political process. Bibi had to backpedal furiously the last time he pulled this BS during the 2012 election. Unfortunately the damage this time will be far worse.
Please, Israeli voters, for your sake and ours, replace this guy. He’s your Dick Cheney, and the sooner you dump him the better off we’ll all be.

Wow. Fox News has a larger audience than I thought.
The 27% Crazification Factor seems to be increasing. Someone ought to tell John Rogers and Tyrone.
