Democrats and Republicans Drafting a Resolution to Rebuke Obama's Israel Comments
Thats gotta sting! Obama is so radical on foreign policy that even the dems wont support him. It will read something like this.
"Draft language of the resolution states “it is contrary to the U.S. policy and national security to have the borders of Israel return to the boundaries of 1949 or 1967.” http://thehill.com/homenews/senate/163105-dems-may-join-rebuff-of-obama
And who can blame the Democrats for jumping on this resolution? It would be political suicide not to.

Senate Dems might join rebuff of Obama on Israeli border issue - TheHill.com
Senate Democrats are expected to support a resolution intended as a rebuff to President Obama’s call for basing Middle East peace talks on the 1967 Israeli-Palestinian borders.
It would be a rare rebuke of the president by the upper chamber and a sign that Democrats are worried about the impact of last week’s speech on the U.S.-Israel relationship and pro-Israel constituents.
Democrats in both chambers are scrambling to fix the damage caused when Obama called for the 1967 borders and land swaps as a basis for peace.
Some Democrats have tried to downplay the rift, but Israel’s strongest supporters in Congress say there’s no denying that Obama made a tactical mistake in handling the relationship.
