Alittle off topic...you don't think McCain and Lieberman would be on a Presidential ticket together would you?

Wonder how long McCain will be on Israel's side?

The Israeli UN Ambassador handled the typical leftist / terrorist questioner (woman) who said "Israel has a free hand to do what it wants in the Middle East because it has the support of the US"

Israeli ambassador: "No, Israel has the backing of the US because Israel is right,...... and is a Democracy. And I would rather have the support of the United States any day than be supported by the terrorist regimes of Iran and Syria."

"Syria is in."

What kind of confirmation -- not that any of us need it -- are they offering? Is the Syrian military on the move into Lebanon? Are they just talking about logistical support for Hezbollah? What are the details?

I know, I know . . . and he has the added disadvantage of being so funny looking!

I had a "discussion" about this with my liberal mother-in-law today . . . didn't take too long to shut her up either; she started sneering that someone said it was "biblical" and then I quoted her a few things and quited her down really fast! Libs, GGRRRRRR . . .

Liberal logic makes no sense. Here they were saying if we go at it with North Korea militarily, we'll be spread thin, then they want to see Bush get involved militarily with Israel when Israel is giving Hezbollah the ass-kicking they deserved decades ago.

See # 155 :)

At this point- I don't care if he is sincere or not- he's on the record. I want to see and hear as much support for Israel as there can possibly be- and if using McCain for that purpose is part of it- fine with me!

They are sooooo left and sooooo liberal they are socialist leaning and are "upset" with Israel. Guess they been in safe and soft America too long.

Liberal American Jews allegiance is to the Left..not to Israel, not to America.

Shelling 'cutting Lebanon to pieces'

news.com.au ^ | 15 July 2006
LEBANON'S Prime Minister Fuad Siniora overnight accused Israel of cutting his country to pieces and demanded an immediate ceasefire in its operation against Hezbollah. In an interview with CNN, Mr Siniora said Lebanon was being punished for something in which it had no hand, the kidnap of two Israeli soldiers and the killing of eight more by Hezbollah fighters. "Israel is continuing its aggression against Lebanon and the Lebanese," Mr Siniora said. "It's sparing nobody, in no area of Lebanon. Actually it is cutting the country into pieces, whereby more than 20 bridges in the country have been destroyed." Mr...

Like I said, if Israel knocks Hezbollah into the ash heap of history, McCain will start speaking against Israel.

"Syria is feeling strong. It can now go on the offensive. Damascus feels confident that Washington cannot counter-attack at this time. It has few arrows left in its quiver," said the University of Oklahoma professor on his website.

It's a shame that an Oklahoma professor can't count arrows any better than that.
