		<description>&quot;Sarah Palin is quite frankly a babe&quot;. Please! Anti-abortion (aka a woman&#039;s right not to choose - check my name: the Hebrew version is Benyamin); creationism in the classroom - since when did non-ultra-orthodox Jews believe in creationism?; Christian fundamentalism; pro-gun law. Check out www.PalinAsPresident.com and see what happens. If being a babe is the best that David-Joe can come up with, that makes him a sexist as well as right wing. Not a nice combination. 

The only reason she was on the Republican ticket was to win over the Christian far right for MaCain and to try (and fortunately fail) to win over the &quot;Clinton women&quot;. Fortunately, Hilary told her supporters that they _had_ to vote for Obama - who will be as pro-Israel as all the previous US Presidents (at least while in office). And look what happened in Florida: the Jews voted for him and delivered the state.

David-Joe, it&#039;s safe to come out of the bunker: but as Hila says, you _could_ move to Canada, but they&#039;re quite liberal there!</description>

		<description>&quot;I moved away from Israel BECAUSE I could see what Israel was becoming - that it was losing its Zionist principles and becoming a sort of weak European lookalike. I have not been wrong. I do not regret moving.&quot;

So, now with Obama winning, are you planning to move to Canada?</description>

		<description>A &quot;Sarah Palin debacle&quot;? What exactly is that?

Sarah Palin is a quite frankly a babe. And this of course drives the left wing crazy because their spokeswomen usually look like Hillary or lesbians.

Governor Palin is an intelligent and well spoken governor of Alaska. She is a respected authority on energy policy - just ask the major oil companies how respected she is.

She has strong moral principles that the American press detest because they are leftist. The pro-abortion faction in America which of course includes the Democrats hate her because she decided to keep her Down syndrome baby and not in NAZI type eugenic style automatically abort it.

When Sarah was selected she energized, electrified, a conservative base that was not at all enthused by McCain. Whereever she appeared she had crowds that rivalled those of Obama.

She is comfortable in her own skin, has raised a beautiful family AND manages to govern a State. She is the antithesis of the so-called &quot;intellectual elite&quot; with their smug attitudes and snobbery over the decrepid Ivy League universities in America.

She is a God-fearing person and this further annoys the Left.

During the Republican Convention, her first ever national speech, the teleprompter went out midway, but she spoke without missing a beat. That is something special.

She has been pilloried, attacked, derided and challenged in the most blatantly rude and disrespectful way by people in the media and cowards behind her back that are part of a Republican Washingtob clique - and stood her ground.

Most of all, the Left hate her because she is tough and nothing gets to her.

Now, the world around may be ignorant of who she is. And Israel of course is besotted [and believes] anything that the media say. So they will believe the worst about her.

Israel should be so lucky as to have a politician such as Palin arise. Instead Israel has to rely on people with shaky principles such as Livni, dinosaurs such as Barak and shemen such as Netanyahu.

I am Israeli and American. I live in the US and I am proud of what we have here. I look across at Israel and I can find only pity and disgust as what we have in Jerusalem. A rotten corrupt government that really does belong in one of the most barbaric regions of the world, the middle-east because it has become just like them.
