Ha Ha..and the trillions of $$$$$$$ from oil revenues give the Muslim block no power or influence here?? Think again.

Conservatives do find that upsetting since they believe that Israel comes before America which is why they are more than willing to send our troops into Iran for another useless war for Israel.

He's a politician doing what they do. What do you expect him to do go on TV and insult the sitting US president? He doesn't like Obama but he's not an idiot. Note how he kept saying America is their greatest ally bla bla bla. It is what it is? It is NEVER what it is. I would think you would understand that.

If America comes first why the hell did we go into Libya, surge troops in afghan and are now circling around Syria ready to pounce all while Obama has been president? The end goal of course to isolate Iran. Look at a friggen map.

Zzzzzzzzzzz Romney is trolling for any jewish votes he can possibly get in Florida.

Just basic politics, why does everyone get so worked up lately? Oh wait, it's election year derangement syndrome and many of you are in full meltdown by now. lol.

It's sound strategy, wierd how many of you seem to have forgotten what happened to Weiners seat.

I'd prefer to remove the Union lobbyists. They are the true power in DC and are the cause of our unfunded liabilities to the tune of $50T! They invest in politicians who repay them with sweetheart contracts using our money. Carter started this, and we're still paying for it.

Besides, if they were not allowed to vote, Obama would have lost. Maybe you have a point after all.

So, foreign politicians are supposed to insult the person who could be the next president? Why on earth would Bibi insult Romney if he wanted him to be the next president? Think about what you say.

You are basically calling Bibi a liar because he does not say what you claim he thinks?

EXACTLY RIGHT... it's called diplomacy. That is something Obama lacks. Romney was welcomed to Israel with open arms, and he's just the candidate. This is starting to feel very Reaganesque to me. Carter was up by 6 points at this time in 80.

If that is true, then why did Netanyahu embarrass him?

So now foreign leaders are telling Mitt Romney what to do and he's not even president. Imagine what a pushover he will be if gets elected.
