Can someone pass me a bucket.

To think I actually voted for him once.

How do I email this clip to myself?  I’m able to click on “share”, but that’s as far as I can get. . . .  Thanks for your help!.  A2

I would, but I’ve been waiting for the interview to come up. After a number of attempts, I gave up.

I fyou are not willing to speak to your adversaries, how are you able to work toward building a foundation for peace?

I believe that Jimmy Carter showed the courage of his convictions in attempting, at the very least, to communicate with Hamas.  Excluding any communication, not withstanding the need to establish parameters, i.e., conditions, does more to deteriorate the safety and sovereignty of Israel.

At least he tried...rather than the current administration’s lip service to the establishment of peace throughout the middle east.
