Today's Political Pop Quiz: Who said this about the Middle East Situation?
Original post from http://spidel.net/blog/?p=730

“We will stand with Israel because Israel is standing for American values as well as Israeli ones.”

“America will support Israel, in her efforts to send a message to Hamas, Hezbollah, to the Syrians, to the Iranians — to all who seek death and domination instead of life and freedom — that we will not permit this to happen and we will take whatever steps are necessary.”

“It is a message that we want not only those in the Middle East to hear, but the world, because no nation is safe from these terrorist extremists,” she said. “They do not believe in human rights, they do not believe in democracy. They are totalitarians, they are the new totalitarians of the 21st century.”

“I want us … to imagine, if extremist terrorists were launching rocket attacks across the Mexican or Canadian border, would we stand by or would we defend America against these attacks from extremists?”

Was this Bush? Cheney? Rumsfeld? Frist? Santorum? Who?

no they won't ... all that's alluded to here by such macho hawk talk is force and military and war and death ...

this character is not ready for primetime with demagoging speeches like this one ...

instead of helping the neocons beat the Middle Eastern war drums, how about talking about meaningful ways of diffusing the situation ...

your mystery guest is a disgrace ...

btw, you might want to remove any "give away pronouns" from your OP ...
