A road to "peace": The case for ethnic purity

[Simon Taylor]

An interesting admission of one of the core (and rarely highlighted) issues in the Israeli/Palestinian peace talks (emphasis mine):

Recognizing Israel as a Jewish state, Netanyahu said, was necessary for any agreement with the Palestinians that would lead to an end to the conflict.

"We want an end to the conflict," he said. "That means the Palestinians must stop attempts to use a Palestinian state as jumping-off point for further claims against Israel. No claim to flood Israel with refugees, which would mean the end of the Jewish state; and no irredentist claims to the Negev, Galilee or Israeli citizens, which would mean the dissolution of the Jewish state."

I don't care who you are .... Democrat, Republican, or Independent ... liberal or conservative ... blue state or red state ... you have to be appalled at the sheer gall of this woman!

 

This is QUEEN PELOSI'S NEW JET!!!  And the Democrats talk about Sarah's dresses??? Queen Pelosi wasn't happy with the small USAF C-20B jet, Gulfstream III, that comes with the Speaker's job .... OH NO!  Queen Pelosi was aggravated that this little jet had to stop to refuel, so she ordered a Big Fat, 200-seat, USAF C-32, Boeing 757 jet that could get her back to California without stopping!  I understand that a former Speaker of the House, Newt Gingrich, flew commerical most of the time. Many, many legislators walked by and grinned with glee as Joe informed everyone of what Queen Nancy's Big Fat Jet costs us, the hard working American tax payers, literally thousands of gallons of fuel every week. Since she only works 3 days a week, this gas guzzling jet gets fueled and she flies home to California every Friday and returns every Monday, at a cost to the taxpayers (YOU and ME are those taxpayers!) of about $60,000, one way! As Joe put it ..."unfortunately we have to pay to bring her back on Monday night and that costs us another $60,000!"  Taxpayers, that is $480,000 per month and that is an annual cost to us of $5,760,000!!!  No wonder she complains about the cost of this war .... it might cramp her style and she is styling on my back and yours.  I think of the military families in this country doing without and this woman, who heads up the most do-nothing Congress in the history of our country, keeps fueling that jet while doing nothing. Queen Pelosi wants you and me to conserve our carbon footprint.  She wants us to buy  smaller cars and Obama wants us to get a bicycle pump and air up our tires. Who do these people think they are???  Their motto is ... Don't do as I do ... JUST DO AS I SAY!  If you think this is outrageous, forward it to all those on your email list!  Keep in mind the figures above do NOT include the cost of plane or crew ... just the fuel!!!  One has to wonder what the total package costs us?   PASS THIS ON

LOL! You beat me to it Drew. Was just about to hit send. Man, Brent is on a roll this week. It's embarassing.

Yes we can heal this nation.
Yes we can repair this world.

Not so fast.  Snopes says "Mostly False"  Translation:  "Partially True"  And to quote the madam Speaker, "I want an aircraft that will reach California."  (Without needing to stop for a layover.)

If Newt could fly first class on United, then why can't Pelosi?

Your attempts to justify your ignorance are pathetic.  Give it up.  

Seriously.

[Simon Taylor]

If you genuinely don't understand the facts, as clearly laid out on snopes, why do you consider yourself competent to discuss politics or even vote?

Simon -- Given the current president, Bush sort of looks like a genius.
