Oh, and Rosen and Weissman were ultimately cleared of all charges in court when the prosecution had to drop its extremely weak case to enforce a law that had rarely been enforced against anyone else.<br /><br />And my Republican girlfriend keeps wondering why I'm a Democrat. I told her I haven't exactly committed to voting for Obama in 2012, and this is one of the biggest reasons.Joshuahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18005308614852029024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8213262.post-57804247765479272602010-08-23T10:57:50.827-04:002010-08-23T10:57:50.827-04:00I believe Newsweek is already considered a fairly ...I believe Newsweek is already considered a fairly pro-Israel magazine. But what I find interesting about this "Dateline DC" column is how if it is liberals supporting Israel, then it becomes acceptable to demonize Israel (as I believe this column does). I mean, I know there is more than one viewpoint of Israel on the right <i>and</i> on the left. But the twin bugaboos of Hamas, which Israel is obviously interested in opposing, and Iran, which has made it's anti-Israel sentiments well known, usually mean the right's support of Israel is unlimited no matter what Israel does. <br /><br />The pointedly anti-Israel tone of the Dateline DC column show that the right is more concerned about trying to slime liberals than it is about supporting Israel.EdHeathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09109361235271107574noreply@blogger.com
