This isn't a left-right thing - it's anybody who has the guts to say to Sharon et al that besides being morally wrong, and against that very same international law which recogized Israel in the first place, further expansion is suicidal.

Anybody who does it gets smeared, whether it's Bush Jr, or Buchanan, or Clinton, or anybody else...

Whaterver one thinks on the issue, being unable to openly, honestly, and fully discuss a major, if not THE major US diplomatic and public policy issue, is simply not right...

Often, we can't even find out where our
elected representatives stand on this issue, and I am not alone in being fed up with this state of affairs...
