The Iranian Agreement is the subject of today's open thread. I have a simple question to those who so vehemently support Israel that they are confused about which flag they are supposed to pledge allegiance to. Is there any deal with Iran that would garner your approval? Or is the only option that is good for Israel the complete destruction of Iran and its people? I suspect the answer to the first question, if you are a Netanyahu apologist, is no. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is Israel's Dick Cheney or John McCain. There are never enough wars to fight, never enough Muslims and Arabs to kill. They are relics of a different time. I no longer listen to those who are always so reflexively pro-Israel that they always, without fail, reject peace. And those who I talk about will now say I am anti-semetic or anti-Israel. No, I am pro-peace. Peace in the Middle East is in the best interests of Israel. War in the Middle East is not. Ending Iran's capacity to make a nuclear bomb is in America's interests. It is also in Israel's interest. This deal has a chance of that goal. Yet Israel's government rejects the deal out of hand.

Not a primary opponent - just a primary. That's news, right? And who did this "high-ranking Democratic official" huff the news to? Celia, of course.

As a high-ranking Democratic official huffed, "We cannot afford not to primary him, because if we don't, we will lose that seat, because there are a lot of Democrats like me who won't vote for him." No Democrat has come forward to run yet, but it may just be a matter of time.

People on welfare are black. People who use food-stamps are lazy, and probably vote for Democrats because they like getting free cell phones. The esteemed "Doctor" Stapleford of the CRI said just that in a News Journal Op-ed once, so it must be true. (Except it isn't and Stapleford, as we all know, is a outright fraud.) As it turns out, white people get welfare (most of it). And many of those white people who get most of the welfare, are rural, broke-ass, angry SOBs. Who do they vote for...? Alex Henderson has the skinny. [...]

Republicans, like a bully punched in a nose for the first time after doing it to others for years, are really crying this morning. They are angry, vowing revenge like they are in some Shakespearean story. They think their threats about retaliation actually scare us.

As expected, Sussex County Sheriff Jeff Christopher has let a deadline for filing an appeal to the Federal Courts pass without actions, which means his fight for more law enforcement power as Sheriff is over.
