    Well, all that and Mon-dull also promised, if elected, that he would raise taxes. And he had a rather amazing opponent.

    It's a reporter's job to ask a politician where they stand on any subject. The news report identified the politicians. They were democrats. How about at least answering for your constituents, such as -- I don't like it -- I disagree but they have the right to chant it -- I support the demonstrators -- I have no opinion. Silence means they support the demonstrators but they know if they admit it, they will be in trouble with their voters. I say they were cowards.

    The group that held a rally in Dearborn last week during which some chanted "Death to America" said the anti-American remarks were wrongful and surprising. But it added that they will not back down from criticizing U.S. foreign policy.

    The Al Quds Committee Detroit said in a statement Wednesday night posted on Facebook that the chants at a protest on April 5 outside the Henry Ford Centennial Library were "wrongful" and "a mistake." The statement was accompanied by a 10-minute video of Sheikh Usama Abdulghani, who spoke at the controversial rally, discussing the remarks. The statement was released after the "Death to America" chants drew widespread attention and criticism this week from Arab American leaders in Michigan, Dearborn Mayor Abdullah Hammoud and the White House.

    Every business wants cheap labor. Republicans do not want illegal immigration.

    Whatever you call it, it is the socialist undercurrent in society. Marxism in action. What they want would appeal only to a tiny minority of Americans.

    The hippie movement was very much like these and were very much anti America at the time. It even spawned the violent weather underground group. Many back then supported communism. It’s just another hippy garbage movement as far as I’m concerned

    OK. What is going on now with the anti-semitic movement is definitely engineered by the Marxists in our society with the goal of implementing socialism in America. I agree that the weather underground was a similar dangerous group with similar objectives. I'm not sure what it had to do with hippies who were not communists to my memory. I viewed them simply as anti-establishment people up to no harm. They disliked the Vietnam war (so did I) and smoked a lot of pot (so did I) but I don't see the harm from them that I see from the Marxists then and now. I'm not even sure hippies were a movement. They weren't organized. It think it was more of a fad.

    It only meant that I rejected your link. I'm not sure what Florida republicans did but I assume you don't like what republicans do anywhere.

    True.....

    If we remain silent... .our children and grandchildren will be in a terrible mess.....

    ....

    I personally am striving to metaphorical kill the old man... Dennis Tate...... and set in motion a new man Dennis Tate who is truly led and guided and burned up, [metaphoricall speaking] by the Holy Spirit.... The Ruach ha Kodesh..... of Judaism...........


    but...... I believe in the prediction by the gifted Mr. Mark Taylor regarding the next ten years for America..... and Israel......
    .......

    The Palestinians are being PLAYED BY BRILLIANT RUSSIAN ATHEISTS WHO ARE STILL FOLLOWING SOMETHING THAT WAS SET IN MOTION BY PRESIDENT YURY ANDROPOV BACK IN THE 1970'S!!!!!!!
    ....
    ....

    ..... "According to Ion Mihai Pacepa, “In 1972, the Kremlin decided to turn the whole Islamic world against Israel and the U.S. As KGB chairman Yury Andropov … [said], a billion adversaries could inflict far greater damage on America than could a few millions. We needed to instill Nazi-style hatred for the Jews throughout the Islamic world, and to turn this weapon … against Israel and its main supporter, the United States.” [Russia and its influence on Middle East Terrorism]...
    ....

    ....

    ....
    ....

    A TRUE MUSLIM.....
    who actually wants to obey the Koran.....

    will soon realize that obeying Atheists in Russia or Romania might not be the best way to understand their own Islamic scriptures???????

    ....
    ....

    Well, you clearly weren't a teenager or young adult in the 60's-70's. You know. Before the internet.

    I was 16 years old in 1960. What does Jane Fonda have to do with anything I wrote?

    I would like to hear Harvard elites clarifications - if "Death to America" depends on the context?

    This is not the fascist state of Israel. There is freedom of speech in USA, the only place on earth. You won't turn it back nto an ethno fascist state of 1700-1950 as much as ole boys would wish
