This story is disgusting and outrageous, the Democrats have no more shame left. Simply because Hillary Clinton was also invited to the rally but refused to speak because she did not want to share a stage with Sarah Palin, the Democrats went in full swing using any and every tactic to make sure Palin would not be on that stage. They even threatened to have the IRS look into the nonpartisan group organizing the rally, to investigate their tax exempt status if Palin was not disinvited. This is so obviously wrong that even Democrats are embarrassed. We have a right to know which thugs were the ones that threatened the nonpartisan group. This political gangsterism must not go unanswered. These bullies need to be exposed and shamed before the American people. This is inexcusable.
New York's CBS 2 reports that say the "decision to disinvite Palin from the high profile rally after Clinton pulled out in a huff came as the result of intense pressure from Democrats. 'This is insulting. This is embarrassing, especially to Gov. Palin, to me and I think it should be to every single New Yorker,' Assemblyman Dov Hikind, D-Brooklyn, told CBS 2 HD. Sources say the axes were out for Palin as soon as Sen. Clinton pulled out because she did not want to attend the same event as the Republican vice presidential candidate...
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,' Hikind 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.'...
As for Sen. Clinton, she brushed right past CBS 2 HD's Lou Young when he tried to ask her about the issue on Thursday night. "
