What had the Palestinians been doing for the two thousand years they lived there? Nothing really. Unless Arabs have oil under their sand they live in poverty.

I think I have made it rather clear that I am liberal on economic and environmental issues, and conservative on race and crime. I vote Democrat, but I dislike stands the Democrats began to take in 1964. I do not think the Republicans are an acceptable alternative, because they no longer believe in balanced budgets.
Actually, both parties are guilty on the budget front.
I think most conservatives would be horrified by your racial views.
