#3 "I remain skeptical about the political will of a Palestinian leadership that all too often lapses into inflammatory rhetoric....

Many were "skeptical" about the SS Standarte Nordland as well. Phueching State Dept. moonbats.

#6 Lowey has also expressed reservations about giving extra aid to the Palestinians in light of Abbas's recent comments, and put a hold on $150 million in aid allocated last year for that and other reasons.

I don't agree with the honourable Representative on many issues, but I'm sure blocking that extra $150 million transfer to the PA, however briefly, is so much more helpful to the cause of peace in the region than would be simply letting the money flow like water in a mighty stream.

#9 Ol Abu Mazzen doesn't have much control over his govt, but I can't recall him giving into hysterics and spouting a bunch of "fiery rhetoric" like arab leaders are so prone to do. Mind you that is probably the single compliment I can dredge up for him.

#10 I am confident that President Abbas is somebody who is committed to the negotiated solution of this issue, and recognizes that only a negotiated solution is going to result in a Palestinian state

Brains.

#12 Would somebody give Condi a koran. The book is a manual of terror. Muslims want neither Jews no Christians in the Middle East. But they want Muslim to live everywhere.

#15 I don't know, Glenmore. Elect Obama and find out. I'll watch.

From my bunker.

In the Yukon.

Or maybe the base on Callisto.
