His Arab cousins contributed millions of dollars toward the White House takeover. He owed them an interview.

Lighten up Mercer.

Soon Mercer his horns will begin to form on his head and you'll hear Carmina Burana playing in the background. At that point, everything in DC will begin to spin and your prophecy will be complete.

Obama is obviously a graduate of the Jimmy Carter School of Appeasement, Surrender and Comradeship. I wonder if he made a pitch to rebuild the tunnels of Gaza? Saul Alinsky is proud Osama is proud CAIR is proud Jimmy Carter had a massive Obamasm and is recovering nicely.

I think this is a brilliant move on Obama's part. It's about time people recognize that the future must not be a victim of the past. For those who believe "appease" is a bad word, I suggest you abandon your faith in the word's meaning and go check out a dictionary definition: "to bring to a state of peace or quiet". Al Qaeda is already running scared of Obama and this can only help to make matters worse for that scum-sucking crowd.

It is about time we sent someone like Mitchell over to listen rather than just sending someone from the Israel Lobby to pretend to negotiate peace. As Clayton Swisher documents in his book The Truth About Camp David, Clinton's negotiating team was hopelessly biased towards Israel. This is why it failed.

Given the fact that the mastermind of 9/11, Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, says his hatred of the US is due to our foreign policy favoring Israel, (The 9/11 Commision Report p. 147),it is time for an evenhanded policy.

The UN divided Palestine roughly equally in 1947 so as to create an Arab state and a Jewish state. By 1967 Israel had 78% of the land. Greedy Israel wants more. The Arab Peace Plan says simply go back to the 1967 border giving Israel 78% of the land. Arafat agreed to this plan in 2002. Agreeing to giving Israel 78% is generous on the part of the Arabs but greedy Israel wants more, and that's why America is being destroyed. Looking at these maps it's clear why we are hated in the Arab/Muslim world.

Carter brokered peace between Israel and Egypt. It's lasted for 30 years without a shot. You have a problem with that?

Since when did a conservative ever need documentation for anything? This is something new.
