What do you expect to change on foreign policy on Jan 21st. It is a simple question.

I would not be expecting many changes on foreign policy anyway. The AIPAC lobby are the most powerful lobby in the US and they push for what they believe is in Israel's interests even if it is not in America's interest.

Theres 1 or 2 other things America is involved in besides Isreal.
It's not the end all and be all.

Mike Huckabee mustn't be running in 2012. He wrote a book recently *************************ing about Mitt Romney and Fred Thompson. So it's good paperback book sales and a second rate talk show for him.

Mike Huckabee mustn't be running in 2012. He wrote a book recently *************************ing about Mitt Romney and Fred Thompson. So it's good paperback book sales and a second rate talk show for him.

On Mitt Romney:

Huckabee writes that the former Massachusetts governor's record was "anything but conservative until he changed the light bulbs in his chandelier in time to run for president." He notes that Romney declined to make a phone call of congratulations after Huckabee beat the oddsmakers to win the Iowa caucuses, "which we took as a sign of total disrespect." He mocks Romney for suggesting, during one debate, more investment in high-yield stocks as a solution to economic woes. "Let them eat stocks!" Huckabee jokes.

Fred Thompson:

"Fred Thompson never did grasp the dynamics of the race or the country, and his amazingly lackluster campaign reflected just how disconnected he was with the people, despite the anticipation and expectation that greeted his candidacy," Huckabee writes.

Thanks to Huckabee McCain won. No room for Huck now though with Palin stealing his crowd. She has signed a book deal for 7 million so who says she is stupid. At the governers convention she no longer had the bumpkin accent that someone thought would grab middle America.

As for the difference between the 2 parties, on a domestic level it seems to be between the very fiscally responsible 36% income tax rate and the radical socialist rate of 39.5%.

i voted barr, full in the knowledge that he was half-assed, but that's better than having no ass at all.

This tired old antisemitic propaganda again? You might have noticed that Israel's borders are shrinking, not expanding. Are you another one of those that believe that "Palestine" is an Islamic state?

FYI, the most powerful lobbies in the USA are groups like the American Association for Retired Persons (AARP), the National Education Association (NEA), the National Rifle Association (NRA) and AFL-CIO (union lobby). AIPAC used to be in Fortune magazine's top five back in the 90s, but they've been squeezed out by these giants and others, especially as the influence of the EU has gotten stronger in the US.
