Joy Reid: AIPAC's goals is to use GOP money to turn the Democratic Party into GOP-lite

[Nanjeanne]

77. I'm kind of surprised that people dont find it obscene that a one issue lobbying group is

spending millions and millions of dollars to affect our elections through such a massive campaign That goes for any lobbying group but particularly one that is a single issue - pro Israeli lobbying group. Do I wish anti gun lobbying groups spent that much money against politicians who favor no restrictions on guns — sure. But I still wouldn’t think allowing this kind of money being used in a media blitz is a good idea. This kind of money is obscene and that it is targeted against elected democrats who do not support this assault on Gaza in the name of defending oneself is particularly disgraceful to this Jew.

I thought it was a bad thing to have this much money in politics. I thought we didn’t like foreign influence in our elections. Guess I was wrong.
