Reply #39: I have a problem with it, because it will give Bush another way to [View All]

expand his powers to take this country into war. That's why. Why would Dems want to do anything that would give Bush more power? Do you think Dems should be voting with Tom DeLay? Well, he is the #1 sponsor of this bill. Talk about sleep with the devil! Perhaps you haven't heard of PNAC, and their goal, fully backed by Sharon, to invade Syria and Iran? Maybe that's OK with YOU, but it damned sure isn't OK with this progressive!

And as far as "hating Israel" (your words) goes, where in the hell do you get that? I detest Israel's government, and particularly Sharon, and I resent their influence on our government here, and on our foreign policy. But "hate Israel"? No. Got a problem with that? Well to bad. I am a Jew who doesn't think Israel needs a fascist apartheid government, and who also doesn't believe that progressives should support same.

On edit: And instead of "voting/voted" for Syrian sanctions, I should have said "supporting". Sorry for the error.
