>>While there is nothing in the U.S. Constitution, at least not yet, that demands of our members of Congress that they swear their fidelity to Israel, there is considerable evidence that such a requirement does, in fact, exist. San >>Francisco Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi, the Democratic Whip, and therefore the party’s most powerful member in the lower house, set what was, perhaps, a new standard for such subservience when she pledged her “unshakable” bond to Israel at least a dozen times in a speech in Washington last April to 5,000 members of the American-Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) at the organization’s annual convention.<<

While the Republican Whip has been well known for his strong, unconditional bond to Israel. The Democratic Whip is no different. Two US political parties actually report to one general boss.

If "Jews" are supposed to earn and live lifestyles similar to white Episcopalians (Jewish Anglo-Saxons?) and vote like Puerto Ricans, (what are the implications of such a stereotype?), how is it these sort of events continue to occur?
