For everyone screaming Gaza, do you think the people of Gaza would be better, worse or the same under a Harris administration. Now ask yourself do you think we would be fighting a war in Iran with Israel in a Harris administration. There is not always a perfect choice but there is always a best choice. There was a simple best choice but people were too stupid to take it.

Cute but allow me to phrase it a different way. Why are these voters mad? AloeVera Apr 29 #10

Sounds like they just looking for a reason SocialDemocrat61 Apr 29 #11

It's much worse. They blame the Party. AloeVera Apr 29 #15

There are a lot of pacs far worse than SocialDemocrat61 Apr 29 #33

In terms of large, powerful PACs who give a substantial amount to Democrats, there are few, if any, worse than AIPAC. Celerity Apr 30 #61

Never said AIPAC was good SocialDemocrat61 Apr 30 #64

Of course those are bad too, but AIPAC (whose RW massive donors often have common agendas with those industries you Celerity Apr 30 #65

Can we agree all pacs are bad? SocialDemocrat61 Apr 30 #67

Not all PACs are bad in terms of intent & impact. I reserve the right to call out the worst ones, which includes AIPAC. Celerity Apr 30 #69

I disagree SocialDemocrat61 Apr 30 #70

Oh, I would love it if ALL PACs and all private money were removed from US politics. Like you said, the concept is bad. Celerity Apr 30 #71

Here's the deal. Some broke, flakey candidates are making up lies about their opponents accepting AIPAC money. LeftInTX Apr 29 #36

Most people don't care SocialDemocrat61 Apr 29 #23

I would say that even less people care to silence expression of this issue, but here we are. Ilikepurple Apr 29 #56

Not trying to silence anything SocialDemocrat61 Apr 29 #57
