Israel's 10 Worst Errors of the Decade

Respectfully Skialethia I'll respond to your points one by one.

11. Security fence/wall is only on others' land in extremely rare instances. It's called eminent domain. If there's a better use of eminent domain than security let me know.

12. If you don't have a permit you don't get to build. Period. The same rule applies to settlers as well by the way...

13.See 12.

14. Simply false.

15. Have you been to an airport lately? It's called security.

16. A propaganda point if I ever heard one.

17. In NO other country can a single citizen petition the Supreme Court DIRECTLY! That is exactly what the Palestinians do and they have won many cases. Israel's judicial system is a model of popular access to us all.

18. You have it backwards.... "Shepherds and farmers"?? Really?! While you're at it why don't you just say "women and children" and conveniently leave out men between the ages of 18 and 45 as if they don't exist.

19. Name any other country that puts their own soldiers at risk going house to house the way Israel has, instead of simply bombing everything from the air.

20. See 16.

Winter Storms (Political and Otherwise)

Can everyone please get a grip?!

OK So Obama is not the second coming, agreed.

We all expected a LOT more, agreed.

This was a once in a generation moment in time, quite possibly.

However, we must all remember that while we didn't get anywhere near what we were hoping for, all things considering, progress in fact has been made. All this means is that our goal will take longer to reach.

Those of you who say that they will never vote for another Democrat should grow up and put their little thinking caps on. Ask yourselves what the Republicans would have done had they won the last election. Ask yourself what the Supreme Court would now look like and what that would mean for all Americans had the Democrats lost this past election!

Obama was right when he said "We are the ones we've been waiting for". Emphasis being on "We" and not him.

Is Obama a disappointment? YES.

Should I therefore cut off my nose despite my face? NOT A CHANCE!

Latest Public Option Concession Comes Into Focus

House Dems need to put the Senate Dems on the defensive by pushing for re-importation of medications. How can a fiscal conservative argue against saving between 20% and 80% if we re-import drugs from certified Canadian pharmacies.



Don't give me that bul$hit argument of safety!



How arrogant can we be to believe that we are the only ones concerned with drug safety?!

If the Senate Dems want to portray themselves as fiscal conservative then make them approve re-importation of drugs.
