Sixty-two percent (62%) of Republicans back Israel's decision to take military action against the Palestinians, but only half as many Democrats (31%) agree. A majority of Democrats (55%) say Israel should have tried to find a diplomatic solution first, a view shared by just 27% of Republicans.

sounds like the best part of that boy dribbled down his Momma's leg! Give me a better explanation.

Is this surprising?
I don’t watch political speech on television and am therefore out of the Greco-Roman prophecy loop. ...haven’t received any related Cavalier mail, either, since the big Putsch/Spinta from the superior folks to have Rice appointed.
I tend to pay more attention to certain facts that most people feel that they want to reject, so there will be some disagreement at times. I’m a conservative American without any religious/emotional allegiances to Europe (not even Britain, Germany, Rome or Russia). ...and no great pecuniary interest in appeasing enemies or keeping freight fuel prices low.
In the short and clear, I don’t like fascism or communism. And I’m so conservative, that I only have One G-d. That may make me an oddball in my own balkanized country these days, but so be it. ...wouldn’t take a million dollars (or equivalent in any other currency) to betray my moral beliefs.
Is that a stubborn stance, or what?
Send a few rockets into any moron Liberal’s back yard and see what their attitude is then?
Not a bad idea, just on general principles.
That could change a few minds.
...tell you what. I’ll explain the reason for the list of links and quotations, although the explanation should be unnecessary. That list of links, titles and quotations has been posted primarily (if not exclusively in threads full of comments that blamed “the Jews” for Israel’s difficulties in winning against enemy forces in Lebanon, in Israel itself, and the like.
Our Republican Government has consistently pressured Israelis against defending themselves, just as Democrat governments have done the same. The evidence is in the list of links and quotations. The political and social trends against Israel are getting worse each decade.
American Jewish people don’t have much influence in US politics. There are too few of them as voters and in political positions to do so. There’s far more non-Jewish Roman influence (including so-called Protestants, these days) in US politics.
And I’m really irked by the enormous numbers of repeats of threads full of comments blaming “Jews” for other political/pecuniary reasons. It resembles some of the propaganda in Europe and the ancient Roman Empire.
I'm 100% with you there.
...wouldn't take a million dollars (or equivalent in any other currency) to betray my moral beliefs. Is that a stubborn stance, or what?
It's a righteous stance and I laud you for it.
Regrettably, though, although I'm not very satisfied about it, we have to choose between two less than ideal alternatives. For pro-Israel voters, it seems pretty clear at this point that McCain would have been the lesser of the two evils as compared to "Osama" Obama.
I would agree, without the word "consistently," but to conclude there isn't a dime's worth of difference between the major parties in terms of this issue currently is not accurate.
Parties are prone to advance stances advocated by their respective bases. As the poll at the beginning of this thread indicates, Democrats as a group are more likely to oppose Israeli use of military force to defend itself. If you agree that the current Bush administration has been hamprering Israel in this regard to a certain extent, the incoming Obama administration, to satisfy its base, figures to pursue policies that are significantly even more detrimental to Israel's security and self-defense.
Pathetically, Liberals have no minds; they’re totally empty-headed with not a brain cell working.
Kind of like a gnat.
Not surprising. Most DemocRats are a bunch of scum-sucking, self-hating, bottom feeding anti-American radicals.
The funny thing is,once the Talibanistas take over, most social liberals will be the first to be stoned.
Get the popcorn handy.
Try to find a diplomatic solution first? They’ve tried 100 times.
I’m against the next war too."
Don't laugh, I've actually seen one in Northampton MA that said,
"I am already totally opposed to the next war"
Really
Northhampton’s just down the road.
I believe ya.
