Reactions To Bibi Bomb Bomb's Bombast

Some choice reactions (h/t Raw Story) to Netanyahu's theatrical campaign speech to Congress:

Standing by for conservatives who say they love America & hate its government to say you're not allowed to feel that way about Israel.

Shorter Bibi: It was NEVER my intention to be a manipulative asshole. It just comes naturally.

Literally much of what Netanyahu is saying about a possible deal is just lies.

A "dark, Strangelovian" speech, says Christiane Amanpour

And from House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA):

"The unbreakable bonds between the United States and Israel are rooted in our shared values, our common ideals and mutual interests," Pelosi said in a Tuesday statement following Netanyahu's speech to Congress. "That is why, as one who values the U.S. – Israel relationship, and loves Israel, I was near tears throughout the Prime Minister’s speech – saddened by the insult to the intelligence of the United States as part of the P5 +1 nations, and saddened by the condescension toward our knowledge of the threat posed by Iran and our broader commitment to preventing nuclear proliferation."

 That's why Bibi's blunder will come back to haunt him and, unfortunately, Israel.

UPDATE:  Here are more reactions to the speech, with the common thread that Bibi's bombast was deeply disrespectful of the President and the government of the United States:

Chris Matthews (MSNBC):

 “This man from a foreign government walked into the United States legislative chamber and tried to take over U.S. foreign policy. He said, ‘You should trust me, not your president on this. I am the man you should trust, I am your true leader on this question of U.S. geopolitics. To protect yourself, you must listen to me and not this president.’”

Jeffrey Goldberg (The Atlantic, on CNN):

The interesting thing for me is that the topic, the text was Iran, but subtext was Obama - the target of this speech was President Obama, John Kerry and their negotiators and basically his message to congress was, "do not trust Obama get a good deal." "He is too naive." Despite about all of the rhetoric Kelly pointed out, Obama's done this for Israel, that for Israel, but you can not trust them to do this.
