  • Romney Comments on Israel

    Never ceases to amaze me how our politicians fawn all over Israel. Romney's latest comments:

    “As president, I will be ready to engage in diplomacy. But I will be just as ready to engage our military might. Israel will know that America stands at its side, in all conditions and in all consequence,” Romney said.

    "All conditions"? "All consequence"? Really?

    And people think Ron Paul is the crazy one when it comes to foreign policy.
    "There is no creature more arrogant than a self-righteous libertarian on the web, am I right? Those folks are just intolerable."
    "It's no secret that the great American pastime is no longer baseball. Now it's sanctimony." -- Guy Periwinkle, The Nix.

    Well, when you're hoping to pick up the votes of Jewish Democrats who don't like Obama's foreign policy as it relates to Israel/Middle East, his comments make a lot of sense.

      Could one really express how they feel about the reason for the fawning and not be accused of being a bigot?

          Depends on your reasons. Give it a shot and let's see.

              So, it's wrong to side with an ally?

                    lol, so they should fawn over fascists instead of a democratic ally with a free press?

                      Bottom line is influence. I am continually surprised at "their" powers of influence. Why just last Sunday I was watching Meet the Press and found out the Eric Cantor and David Gregory are Jewish. Andrea Mitchell, really, I didn't know.

                      What surprises me is how liberal so many of them are. Perhaps it has to do with their being surpressed like the Blacks. You have to hand it to them, for being surpressed, they are doing quite well for themselves. Did I mention Larry King.

                      I admire people who attract money. I remember when I first got into this business, we (Paine Webber) were offering a Movie Limited Partnership. A selling point was "look at the Jews involved in this, it is bound to make money". Of course that was what I thought and so I bought some for clients.

                      This was mid 80's and I wish I could remember the movies, but 6 of the 9 were legitimate big time movies with several blockbusters. All of them had cost reported at X and sales at Y which were much larger than X.

                      Good deal for my clients, right. Wrong, they lost 50%. With my mouth wide open I inquired all over, WHY??

                      I mentioned we had to win, we were in with the Jews. Then someone mentioned to me we were in with them, but on a different basis. The limited partnership absorbed all the costs, including all sorts of fee's to , which took huge chunks out of the revenue and left losses.

                      They have an unusual amount of influence and power for their numbers. You can either admire them for it or have ill feelings. Oftimes I have found they don't want you thinking either about them.

                        yes, the reason you are suggesting is bigotry.

                            I don't know if you are being serious. But when it comes to calling out people for bigotry, you are in my laughing my ass off category if anyone takes you serious.

                              Well of course, not making this statement is equivalent to fawning over fascists, right?

                              I have no problem at all being allies with Israel. I just found it extremely odd that we would promise to stand by another country (with military backing) no matter what. Have we ever made that statement with another country? "Hey, you go and do whatever crazy thing you want, and we will support it." Do you think that is wise foreign policy?
