"There needs to be more than just the willingness to express goodwill when the cameras are on. There needs to be a passion--"

There was another one of those almost three years ago. The message from it (from Mel) only came out recently and turned out to be the same message that the older passions were broadcasting.

Oh, indeed? I guess Mel just has to come into the subject--we even sent a valentine from FR about it to variety.

Effete kvetching.

Anytime a majority of American Jews decide to love Israel more than they love to spite a (even nominally) observant or (nominally) conservative Christian, I guess I'll see the committment I'm hoping for and waiting for. Until then, it looks like you're stuck with the likes of Condi. Will she or nil she, I'd vote her in. Even if she were pro-Israel, she'd get little help, it's becoming clear. At some point, it's not going to be worth the effort for either Repub or Dem, or even evangelical. You cannot save Israel without the Jews.
