The Jews are NOT promoting brain washing children in military training camps, teaching them how to blow themselves up and cause maximum deaths of Jews and other non Muslims! The Jews don't hijack planes, nor kill athletes at the Olympics, or blow themselves up in German restaurants. There is NOT one single Jew that has destroyed a church. There is NOT a single Jew that protests by killing people. The Jews don't traffic slaves, nor have leaders calling for Jihad and death to all the Infidels. Per haps the world's Muslims should consider investing more in standard education and less in blaming the Jews for all their problems. Muslims must ask what they have done for humankind before they demand that humankind respects them!! Regardless of your feelings about the crisis between Israel and the Palestinians and Arab neighbors, even if you believe there is more culpability on Israel 's part, the following two sentences really say it all: If the Arabs put down their weapons today, there would be no more violence. If the Jews put down their weapons today, there would be no more Israel.

Even Democrats prefer McCain over Obama!

I'll the news actually doing the talking this time...

Clinton fundraiser backs McCain over Obama
By ANN SANNER, Associated Press Writer

WASHINGTON - A top Hillary Rodham Clinton fundraiser threw her support behind Republican John McCain on Wednesday, saying he will lead the country in a centrist fashion and accusing the Democrats of becoming too extreme.

"I believe that Barack Obama, with MoveOn.org and Nancy Pelosi and Howard Dean, has taken the Democratic Party — and they will continue to — too far to the left," Lynn Forester de Rothschild said. "I'm not comfortable there."
Rothschild is also a member of the Democratic National Committee's Platform Committee. She said she would be stepping down from her position on the committee but will not switch political parties.

She praised McCain for working with Democrats to pass legislation and for standing up to President Bush on the Iraq war. "I just ask, who has Barack Obama ever stood up to? And that troubles me a lot," she said. Rothschild also disputed Obama's argument that a McCain administration would be an extension of Bush's presidency. Democrats cite McCain's own account of having voted in support of Bush's policies 90 percent of the time.
She said the Arizona senator has broken with Bush to support funding for stem-cell research and to curb greenhouse gas emissions.

"It is the classic cheap shot. Just not true," she said. Rothschild said she was also excited by the prospect of a woman being in the White House, even though she and Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin disagree on issues. The Alaska governor opposes abortion except in the case of a threat to the mother's life. Rothschild said she supports abortion rights.
"I believe that the McCain-Palin government will be a centrist government," Rothschild said. "It's not going to be an ideological government."

Rothschild is a member of the DNC's Democrats Abroad chapter and splits her time living in London and New York. She was one of Clinton's top fundraisers, bringing in more than $100,000 for her presidential campaign. She built a multimillion-dollar telecommunications company before marrying international banker Sir Evelyn de Rothschild.

Rothschild said she has not discussed her support for McCain with Clinton.
"I'm sure she is not pleased with what I'm doing today," she said. "But you know what? I have to do what I believe in."

...AWESOME!

Democrats & Economy

So all the Democrats keep asking the question, "are you better off than you were 4 or 8 years ago?". First, YES! I am. Four years ago, I didn't have a job nor did I eight years ago. Secondly, let's really look at who has more control over the economy: the president or the congress? Does the president have any control over taxes or wages or employement or job creation? NO. You know who does? CONGRESS! And guess who has controlled Congress for two years now. That's right, the Democrats.

So next time you hear some political pundit or Democrat try and throw the Republicans and President George W. Bush under the 'economy bus', ask yourself who has more impact on the economy and you should come to the realization that it's NOT President Bush.

Politics: Democrats vs Republicans

Lately, all we've heard from the Democrats is that Governor Palin lacks experience to be the Commander-In-Chief.

1. Last time I checked, the VICE President WAS NOT the Commander-In-Chief. That duty falls to the PRESIDENT. The Republicans have nominated Senator John McCain to be the President; not Sarah Palin. So for once, the Democrats got it right, Sarah Palin does lack experience to be the Commander-In-Chief. That's why she's going to be the VICE PRESIDENT.

2. If Sarah Palin, with her 14 years in EXECUTIVE roles, does indeed lack experience, how can Senators Joe Biden or Barack Obama (NEITHER of whom have ANY executive experice) claim to have MORE? Senator Obama has been a Senator FOR THREE YEARS! Do you really want someone who has not even served a term in Congress to be your president? I DON'T!
