Watch democrats' brains explode.

Yesterday, Representative John Dingell of Michigan appeared on a Detroit television program along with Republican Candice Miller. They discussed the crisis in Lebanon; Dingell proclaimed himself neutral. "I don't take sides for or against Hezbollah; I don't take sides for or against Israel." Asked, "You're not against Hezbollah?" Dingell answers, "No..."
Listen to it here on YouTube, or use our player below.
If the Democrats win control of the House of Representatives, Dingell will be the Chairman of the House Energy and Commerce Committee. He was one of the eight Democrats who did not vote in favor of the Congressional resolution supporting Israel in its conflict with Hezbollah.
The Democratic Party is seems more hospitable to knuckledragging antisemites. Pat Buchanan never goes further than saying, in effect, Hezbollah may be repulsive, but we don't have a dog in that fight.
I tend to be a "liberitarian isolationst" to the extent that such a thing isn't a contradiction in terms. (If "undocumented workers" carried their own weight, I'd be a member of the open borders crowd. )
Growing up in Queens, the local deli man and his wife had numbers tatooed on their arms. I can still feel the frission of revulsion that shot through me when my mother explained what it meant (I was about seven) and I've always been an reflexive antiantisemite since. (I guess I'm reflexively anti racist, not because I'm such a good person, but I find racism silly. I judge people as individuals rather than as representives of ethnic or racial groups.)
I would say Pat's a populist/isolationist and Mel, well he's just f.....up!
With a name like John Dingell what do you expect?
Without a doubt they are. Democrats aren't antisemitic, but they're tolerant of it within their political organization. Irrespective of what you think of Pat, he's not a Republican. Hasn't been for over a decade. To anyone but the media.
True. In a political context, neither Pat nor Mel have a role, Dingell is a democratic leader.
If you've heard him talk it's obvious he lacks intelligence.
Michigan, Michigan, Michigan ... Detroit, Michigan ...
John Dingell of MICHIGAN
votes uber alles
re post #6 from the admin moderator to you....I remember this annoying kid when I was in grade school. They gave him a Safety Patrol badge and you'd have thought we were time-warped into Mayberry and Deputy Barney Fife was on duty. Some people take themselves way too seriously.
Talk about stuck on stupid! (Actually, I wish it were a matter of stupidity; it is more likely Dingell and his ilk are delusional about a working relationship between his socialist dream and the islamofascists.)
Warning! This is a high-volume ping list.
Yeah, but he's right. There's purpose for these things, I suppose I should go alone, EVEN IF MY MONTHLIES PAY THAT INGRATES SALARY!!!!
Okay then. I'm taking a firm stand and voting FOR the Admin Moderator after I voted AGAINST the AM.
Hey Dingle,, ask the murdered Marine families you piece of garbage
Karl Rove set him up.
As opposed to semihourly? Remember, Kerry is my more moderate senator. My congressman never does TV because Democratic incumbency is lifetime tenure, like civil service, or the papacy.
I am sure Howard Dean will be calling him a anit semite any moment now.
"John Dingbat"
