when he’s not condemning DJT, he’s comparing the israelies to terrorists.
Are you WisconsinRep’s butt buddy, or is he yours?
It depends on what you mean by conservative mindset
, some of this is genuinely deserved because our conservative
politicians have conserved exactly nothing and, in fact, seem more than willing to roll over on any issue. Take, as an example, the Republican Party as-a-party; they've failed on every stated platform plank: fiscal responsibility (how many times have they voted to increase the debt ceiling? Or failed to demand an actual budget, rather than omnibus spending bills
?), government accountability (NSA domestic-spying, CIA domestic-ops, FBI corruption, IRS political-targeting, election fraud, etc), smaller government (Ha-ha-ha-ha! [DHS, TSA, etc]), border security (immigrant caravan), repeal of ObamaCare, overturning Roe v. Wade, etc.
So if you're equating supports republican
with conservative mindset there's good reason to not support Republican because (R)
.
Just like there's good reason to be tired of [self-proclaimed] conservative
always being on the defensive [and losing] rather than actually fighting back — take for example the last two items in the above list [ObamaCare and Roe], we could easily have screwed things up by asserting the fact that Roe v. Wade was predicated on a Constitutional right to the privacy of medical files
and the ObamaCare requirement to disclose medical files, sending it to the courts to chose between abortion on demand or control of healthcare.
The Kenyan probably paid for the entire thing and sent over materials and supplies.

Crocodile Tears, you all are Putin Fanboys, and you have acted pretty horrible in the past as well. All as bad as each other. I don’t like what they say, but I’m not crying about zotting them.
A one week employee at the CIA should have known the Iranians were developing nukes. A country flowing with oil doesn’t need nuclear power.
How about we let Israel go after Iran without us stopping them?
Or will that make the Turks mad?
Real-world Gabriel Alon
I know what you mean, I specifically did not state “Republican”, because there is too often a significant difference between “Conservative” and “Republican” these days.
Reading your post, you and I are on the same page largely.
In life , timing is everything and Tillerson had the misfortune of getting caught deliberately undermining Trumps Iran policy with the Europeans right about the time Trumps national security people were reviewing and vetting these documents
Sucks to be him.
I think so too.
I know what you mean, I specifically did not state “Republican”, because there is too often a significant difference between “Conservative” and “Republican” these days.
Indeed.
But even this is muddied/diluted by the fact of the actions of so many conservative
politicians, to the point where the term seems to be essentially meaningless except as a visual descriptor (eg conservative dress).
In time I'm sure there'll be some term that adequately describes our page
w/o the loser connotation that our political caste has so kindly given the word conservative
— it's just a matter of waiting for it to be coined and enter the common vernacular.
“What did Obama know, and when did he know it?”
.....and John Kerry.
“Doesn’t Israel also have a secret nuclear program?”
Yeah, because of allies of their enemies like you.
If you’d like to be on or off, please FR mail me.

We are to believe that the US intelligence community had not a clue, or that they withheld the information from the smartest President ever
It was an awesome presentation.
Something about lizards...

Unfortunately, I believe that the heaviest bunker-busting bombs (MOPs) are needed to destroy the Iranian nuclear program because their nuclear facilities are located very deep. Israel doesn’t have MOPs and airplanes (B-2 bombers) to deliver them.
