• On July 28, 2012, by pmpowell001 - Once again, Congress confirms they are owned by AIPAC. there is no limit to the amount of money/weapons we will give them. America will continue to sacrifice their money and soldiers to defend Israel's slaughter of Palestinians and fight the enemies Israel creates in the process.

• On August 06, 2012, by nirvana - How is that Congress cannot vote on issues impacting our national security (e.g. the Cyber-bill to protect our Country against cyber attacks), yet a bill sponsoring a foreign country and serving foreign interests can pass and get signed in a month? Who exactly are these members of Congress serving - the American people or foreign interests?
