GOOD!

The only country a party need support in its platform is America.

I'd suggest that you may think it was in "poor taste" because it was so effective.
Nope. I saw the family doing an interview after the video and his wife seemed to enjoy it and thought it embodied her husband. I think her opinion is the only one that matters in this instance.

You're being played for a fool.

They want somebody fund and apologize for their land grabs and brutality of Arab peasants.

Our support of Israel profoundly hurts are standing in the World, and they don't "stand in the way" of anything.

They're cowards who steal our money, and want our soldiers to die for their thuggish behavior.
Wow....have you been watching MSNBC, much? Or,maybe you're a member of Hamas? Israel has been greatly out-thugged by the Arabs that surround them. These Muslims will blow up their women and children to try and get what they want. I am not drinking the kook-aide that you are obviously imbibing.

The Shas party holds 4 cabinet seats. Sorry. He fits right in the with the ruling Israeli government.

In any other Western Democracy he'd be shamed. In Israel, racists and bigots they thrive in politics

The US has never recognized Jerusalem as Israel's capital; the US embassy is in Tel Aviv.

More like Obama important to special interest groups that gave him big money. I suspect Obama & Romney would not be favored candidates if public could choose. Of course some just vote by party , so any Dem or Rep will do.

I'm just flabbergasted that the Democrat Party would air a video of a disgraced politician like Ted Kennedy. Mary Jo Kopechne is looking down in disgust.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. The business of the Democratic National Convention begins Tuesday in Time Warner Cable Arena with first lady Michelle Obama praising her husband’s accomplishments.
Democratic convention starts today; attention turns to Time Warner Cable Arena | CharlotteObserver.com
Your source is the Charlotte Observor?

My source is the official Democratic Party Convention website - and it states that the convention began on Monday.

Game, set, match - Harrier.

I have no problem with this.

People can be religious, if they choose, without government being involved.
