it is hardly a party issue since the aid has been going on for israel since what 1946?

We could afford one helluva PARTY if we kept all the foreign aid money for ourselves

1/3 rd of foreign aid goes to israel.....no one seems to object to that spending

Cut it off.

Cut everybody off, IMO

Thank you!
It is time we focus on AMERICA

We could get our homeless vets off the streets.
We could give more to orphan children
We could give more incentive for starting small businesses
There is SO MUCH we could do to better our country with all of this shit!
Hell man, we spend almlost a million bucks on seeing if a scientist could train a lion to run on a treadmill!

Not that it's an excuse but Washington bought votes with barrels of rum.

Imagine the good that could be done if all the money that these big wigs gave to campaigns went to charities.
There wouldn't be a need for federally funded welfare
