Quotes of the Week

"He's a belligerent, loudmouth racist with not an ounce of compassion for less fortunate people, In other words: He's exactly the kind of person the Republican base consists of and identifies with."
- Paul Krugman, describing Donald Trump.

And here is what Benjamin Netanyahu had to say today about Obama's historic nuclear deal with Iran: “From the initial reports received, it is already possible to say that this agreement is a historic mistake for the world,”

Netanyahu really has a knack for being on the wrong side of history when it comes to important U.S. foreign policy decisions.  Here is what he had to say on Sept. 12, 2002, during testimony before the U.S. House Foreign Affairs Committee, on whether Bush and Cheney should invade Iraq: “If you take out Saddam, Saddam’s regime, I guarantee you that it will have enormous positive reverberations on the region.”

You really nailed that one, Bibi.
