In Private Fundraiser, Keith Ellison Said Israel Controls US Policy

[ck4829]

105. "The quote is all that matters", let's see if that works both ways

From the very same article:

A column in Israel's liberal daily Haaretz quotes two rabbis praising Ellison, D-Minn., as "the best of our constitutional democracy and the best of America" and "an extraordinary leader. Anyone who would associate him with any kind of hatred hasn't met him and certainly hasn't worked with him."

Jonathan Greenblatt, the Anti-Defamation League's chief executive, issued a statement last week saying Ellison "is a man of good character" and "an important ally in the fight against anti-Semitism and for civil rights."

Why doesn't Steven Emerson take these quotes at their face value? If there really was an issue with Keith Ellison, these three men would see that, but they don't, we could say that there is no real issue here, or we could go through the hoops and conspiracy theories that Emerson does and say these men don't really know or they choose to remain ignorant.

Steven Emerson is just another party in the "concerned conservative" effort against Ellison that is joining forces with groups like the Daily Caller, the Washington Times, American Thinker, and more. Why is this? They should be relishing in a chance for the Democratic Party to self destruct or be "out of tune with the voter".

I think Keith Ellison can reflect a new institution that arose in the aftermath of the election, that more Americans voted for Clinton than Trump. Someone will need to reflect that. He is supported by Chuck Schumer in his bid, and he himself will need all the support he can get.
