Censure John Boehner
By issuing an invitation to Benjamin Netanyahu to speak before Congress without the knowledge or approval of The White House, John Boehner has overstepped his authority and discredited his position. This is a blatant effort to influence and undercut diplomatic efforts by using a foreign head of state as a proxy to criticize US foreign policy, and he should be held accountable.
Why is this important?
People should be concerned when any member of congress attempts to manipulate the delicate balance of US foreign relations to further a personal agenda. Doing so in complete disregard for the impairment it may cause to the US government's ability to conduct foreign policy is reprehensible.
