Democrats hit Rand Paul for Israel ‘rewrite’

Democrats seized on Rand Paul’s comments over foreign aid to Israel on Tuesday, adding to a growing chorus of criticism from those on the left who say the Kentucky senator wants to “rewrite history.”

“Rand Paul has absolutely supported ending US aid to Israel, and he needs to stop trying to rewrite history,” Democratic National Committee Chairwoman Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-Fla.) tweeted Tuesday morning. The Democratic Party fired off a similar tweet: “ICYMI: Rand Paul insists he never proposed ending aid to Israel, forgetting he said it (more than once!) on tape.”

No wonder nothing gets done.
Why fix the problem if you can try to beat your opponent over the head with it.
Schultz is an absolutely terrible DNC Chair.
