You'd think that list would be longer, wouldn't you?

A note from Benedict Ar... Sorry. A note from Stan Adelstein why he thinks you should vote Democrat this year.
(Click on letter to enlarge) And while it may not be printed at taxpayer expense, I don't see a disclaimer, either. When they hold the special session (supposedly at the end of November) , since he's left them already, I think his colleagues should expel him from the caucus. Sure. At that point it's only going to be symbolic. But since he's already said he's running again in the near future, sometimes symbolism is enough.

The Former Democratic Senator says… “There is nothing left for them (Palestinians) to do except to commit acts of terrorism.”
He says this even after Hamas was elected into office, an organization which American refuses to deal with and is on their terrorist list. These people kill innocent people yet this guy backs them up?!
I wonder if he feels the same way about the terrorists who blew up the Trade Center? I mean they werent getting anywhere with our state department so did they have to resort to terrorism too?
This is the problem with some of the Democrats in this country, they decide to take the side of terrorists rather then the groups who can actually help prevent more terror attacks. If they continue on this course when a Democrat is elected president again it will only lead to the possible impending doom of our country.
Lets try and stand up for the people who agree with our policies of peace and individual freedoms and stop standing up for people who kill innocents.
Jack Billion is being supported by a guy who supports Palestinian Terrorists. Abourezk doesn't know the difference between real terrorists and those who suffer at the hands of evil doers.
We should all call on Jack Billion to renounce Abourezk and de-invite him. Because currently Billion is being supported by a guy who supports Palistinean Terrorists.
Annon 9:50 is an idiot. Abourezk never lost an election in SD.
If you haven't noticed, we're at war, and Bush has declared war on individual freedom - declaring that the executive branch can spy on anyone it wants, whenever it wants, without any oversight by the court system (e-mails, phone records, internet records) and can imprison anyone it wants - even American citizens without trial and without court oversight.
9:50, you can't dispute Abourezk's statement that Israel has grabbed land. In 1948 when Israel was formed, Arabs were chased out of their homes under threat of death, and never allowed to return - which is why they continue living in refugee camps today. Israel attacked Syria and Egypt in 1967 and seized the West Bank, Golan heights and Gaza Strip among other areas. This is also when Israel viciously attacked an American warship the USS Liberty and attempted to sink it.
There are many who believe that Israel could live in peace and security if it reverts to its pre-1967 border (before the land grab) and does justice to the Palestinians by allowing them their own autonomous state. This is the stated policy of the United States, the European Union, and the United Nations. Not just something Jim Abourezk made up.
There is an adage, you can't have peace without justice.
Please refrain from comments such as jew-hater and anti-semite.
After all, there has to be more smart attorneys than that in our state!
With luck, you will someday come to realize how much knowledge is out there that you don't currently possess.
You will not fight back because to do so would make you a terrorist. You will just go quietly to your refugee camp.
Brandon, you say you like a good debate. But so far you have accused me of not doing my research. You have called me ignorant (twice) and stupid. Do you want a debate or just a name-calling match? You won't find the answer to that question on google.
what would you call somebody who wants to see jewish people blown up? It's not out of line to call someone a jew hater if they want to see them blown up. Abourezk acknowledges that, “There is nothing left for them (Palestinians) to do except to commit acts of terrorism.”
What if I said "there is nothing left to do but blow somebody up because I am frustrated with them." That would generally mean I hate them. Wanting to blow people up is to hate them...it certainly is not to love them.
It's not libel if you are making a good faith argument based on an interpretation of someone's comments.
Read the South Dakota Supreme Court case of Janklow v. Viking Press. Janklow sued the publishing company because a book was written which claimed that Janklow raped a woman. This claim was based on reports from the reservation where it allegedly took place.
If Janklow can't get a court to agree with him when he's called a rapist Abourezk certainly wouldn't be able to get a court to agree with him based on his own statements that can be construed in the way which the opposing writer wrote them.
We don't even have to get to the merits of Abourezks statements to dismiss this thing.
Besides Abourezk has made many statements as a public official that fall in line with what the writer above reported.
Also interesting is that this forum is dedicated to political speech. Which is given high deference by the courts, and speech is not immune from the grasp of libel it certainly is given wide lattitude.
Libel, hardly...inflamatory certainly...true...well, it's been reported you decide.
