>>>>>>I think Buchanan makes some telling points here.

Yes, he does. Buchanan isn't advocating new aid for Hamas, he's saying we shouldn't cut off the aid we already committed to giving to the Palestinian Authority. If you do that, we look like hypocrites, advocating democracy except when we don't like the results. Now, I happen to believe that we shouldn't be in the democrary-exporting business in the first place, but if you've made that the rationale for America's actions in the Mideast, cutting off aid to Hamas becuase we disapprove of them certainly helps undermine that effort.

We have no obligation to fund terrorists.

Regardless of how they gained power.

Pat is all wet on this one.

And speaking of namecalling. That's about 90% of the content of his article.

People who get upset over the insults directed at Pat on this thread ought to ponder that.
