Last week, Shrillary canceled an appearance at today's pro-Israel,
anti-Ahmadinejad rally in New York when she found out Sarah Palin
would be there. Soon afterwards, Palin was rudely disinvited. A local
CBS affiliate — hardly in the tank for McCain — explains why: Dems
threatened to sic the IRS on the organizers if they let Saracuda
speak.
The groups sponsoring the rally against Iranian President Mahmoud
Ahmadinejad speaking at the UN were reportedly told, "it could
jeopardize their tax exempt status" if they had Palin and not Clinton
or Democratic VP candidate Joe Biden on hand.
So all politicians were disinvited, most prominently, Palin.
"It's an absolute shame that this has happened," [Assemblyman Dov]
Hikind [D-Brooklyn] said. "To threaten organizations … to threaten the
Conference of Presidents that if you don't withdraw the invitation to
Gov. Palin we're going to look into your tax exempt status … that's
McCarthyism."
Another Jewish group tried to step into the breach by inviting
Palin to a different protest a day earlier.
"I'm absolutely appalled at the behavior of the Democrats," said
Bob Kunst of Defenders.net. "I'm a Democrat and for the first time in
my life I'm going to vote Republican. I can't take it anymore."
Imagine what it will be like when they have control of the White
House.
