Democrats: Walk out on Boehner & Netanyahu

Insulting President Obama, Speaker Boehner and Senate Majority Leader McConnell invited Israeli P.M. Netanyahu to speak to the Congress in March, without consulting the President. Their goal is to undermine Obama's negotiations with Iran. This is an unprecedented usurpation of the President's prerogative to conduct negotiations with foreign nations.

Why is this important?

We must give the President a chance at a diplomatic agreement with Iran about its nuclear program. Neocons in Congress, such as most Republicans and many Democrats, would rather scuttle diplomacy and go to war with Iran to enact regime change. That would be a disaster and yet another war/quagmire costing many lives. Democrats and Republicans who support negotiations should walk out on Mr. Netanyahu before he makes his pitch for aggression against Iran.
