re: united stupids vote no to arms treaty
The dems may do a lot of good, yet consider how the repubes will play it when the US economy really deteriorates - I'll bet you pounds to a peanut the bush mob will devise a means to blame the collapse on the dems.
Hopefully it won't happen and the dems will romp in next time.
As far as Israhell goes, don't underestimate the zionist lobby's control of the dems either.
As Jimmy Carter said the other day re criticism of his new book on the oppression of the Palestinian people by Israhell:
"Book reviews in the mainstream media have been written mostly by representatives of Jewish organizations who would be unlikely to visit the occupied territories, and their primary criticism is that the book is anti-Israel. Two members of Congress have been publicly critical. Incoming House Speaker Nancy Pelosi for instance, issued a statement (before the book was published) saying that "he does not speak for the Democratic Party on Israel.""
