Keep the debate honest.

They didn't merely call for time to study the sale. Many called to kill it immediately by whatever means necessary. In response to that, he threatens a VETO. Which he's threatened to use on spending bills and never has.

I know this is probably going to get me labeled eventually, not necessarly by you, as a bot or for this sale which I have NO position on yet but some of the rhetoric being used by many on either end is irritating to say the least.

On one end everyone against this deal hates arabs. On the other end the President is a drunken shrub living in a bubble that is ready to sale this country to the terrorists. Excessive rhetoric to my mind.

Since I've been labeled both a bot and a Bush hater in past, depending on the issue, it'll be nothing new but would be nice if the hysteria subsided and a rational debate emerged so that this national discussion would end up serving a good purpose.

I'm not going to label you or anyone here. I haven't posted for 3 weeks and probably won't for a good while again.

I see the points of the defenders of the deal, but they don't persuade me.

Once upon a time, we had common sense in this nation. Now we have nuance, rationalization, excuses for stuff that doesn't make sense.

Excuse me, but I don't even know what Republican means anymore. Nevertheless, I look forward to a process and outcome that is in the best interests of our nation.
