§What about Palestine, Barbara?

Barbara Lee, like almost all "progressive" Democrats, becomes blind to oppression when the oppressor is the Zionist Terror Regime in Palestine. In fact, she -- not once, but twice! -- congratulated Ariel Sharon, the man most responsible for the massacres at Sabra and Shatila in 1982, on his election as Prime Minister of "Israel".

Clearly, Barbara Lee is not a Renegade for Peace and Justice when being one would antagonize the rich Zionists who are key funders of the Democratic Party.
