We should just play nice with these > goofballs?! Oh, piffle, "weekly threats". Show me a reliable source, i.e. one that isn't a toady to the neocon warmongers. And threats are not the same as actions. Iran's mullahs aren't the nicest people in the world, but they are quiet about Israel. Mr. Ahmadinejad doesn't make foreign policy. As for Israel, methinks US policy should be guided by what's in the best interest of the U.S., and where that disagrees with the interests of Israel, too bad. > > > And the Democrats, whom one can expect to retain control of the Congress, > > are too limp-wristed to stop either in spite of the fact that that's what > > they were elected to do in 2006. > > Yeah.

Yeah. McCain the warmonger vs. Obama the feel-good revival meeting socialist. Once more we're presented with a choice like that between syphilis and gonorrhea. I have to give McCain credit on two points. He did vote against the farm bill, a disgusting orgy of concern for poor farmers like David Letterman and David Rockefeller. And of all the presidential candidates, only he and Ron Paul came out four square against the use of torture. -- Charles Curley /"\ ASCII Ribbon Campaign Looking for fine software \ / Respect for open standards and/or writing?
