Allen West Loses

Right after he was elected, the first thing he did was go to Israel. Guess that says whose bitch he is.

Um. One day I will go to Israel, just because I want to go to Israel. I want to tour Nazareth, Bethlehem, the River Jordon, and the Temple Mount. I don't want to do it for any sort of publicity, but just because I want to go myself since it is a part of the world I have never been to, and as a Hebrew-Roots Christian, it is a region with some significance to many of my core beliefs.

I hope that one day when I do get the chance to visit, y'all won't freak out and decide that I am a raging neocon just because I want to visit the place where John the Baptist (kind of a Ron Paul of his day) preached. :(

Many probably will though. I could just imagine the scandal around here if Rand were go visit Israel. :( :(

Not that I'm trying to defend Rubio, I despise the guy, but damn. Sometimes folks around here worry me.

Why not oppose the guy based on his f'n policies, not where he decides to take a damn vacation!

No. Only if we see you kissing the wailing wall. :p

In all seriousness, I'd like to visit Israel too one day.

There's vacationing places, and there's taking a trip paid for and set up by special interests.

Oh frell you'll never have to worry about that. I was offered an all expense paid trip to Turkey, allegedly to share experiences between ours and their government, and I quite politely but emphatically declined. I was later offered an all expense paid luxury trip to Louisiana for ame big ALEC conference, and even though I'd love to go visit Torchbearer, I politely but emphatically declined that one too. That whole special interest expense paid trip thing is just too ikky for me to contemplate.
 
No more Allen West, Joe Lieberman retiring, too bad Bachmann won.

Lets get rid of Lindsay Graham in 2 years

Not if you visited Israel just after being elected by the American people. Timing is everything, run a ultra pro Israel, anti Arab, pro war campaign and then visited Israel after the election on an official visit.

WTH, my parents have visited Israel 2x(pilgrimage) and I don't consider them neocons. Just very religious folks :)

Bachman's seat is a primary opportunity for us though if we have a good enough candidate to make it more worthwhile than keeping her in a shaky seat in a district where we have real power.
 
Allen West Losing Even More Than He Was Before Recount
http://reason.com/24-7/2012/11/19/allen-west-losing-even-more-than-he-was

The odds of Rep. Allen B. West (R-Fla.) prevailing in Florida’s 18th District race grew longer Sunday when a recount of early ballots yielded Democratic opponent Patrick Murphy a net gain of nearly 300 votes, expanding his lead over the incumbent to more than 2,000 votes.

A St. Lucie County recount resulted in Murphy gaining 274 votes, the Miami Herald reported. Murphy’s campaign continued to claim victory, while West’s campaign refused to give in just yet, the paper also reported. But the Republican’s options appear to be limited. His deficit is outside the automatic recount threshold, and time is running out.
