Sarah Palin gave a scary answer to Charlie Gibson on Israel, saying she supported Israel's prerogative to attack Iran, and under his questioning said in a rote way, three times, that the U.S. has no right to "second guess" Israel's decision. Chris Matthews seemed angry about this tonight on Hardball, questioning whether it was in the national interest. Then asked whether AIPAC had drafted her answer. Pat Buchanan pointed out that the answer goes against even Bush's foreign policy and that McCain is in the thrall of Randy Scheunemann, a neoconservative and former "agent" for Georgia. Earlier Todd Harris, a Republican operative, told Matthews he felt it would be a good thing if Netanyahu becomes prime minister of Israel.
Scary Republicans. If Harris is against the two-state solution, why is he given a platform on MSNBC? Or why isn't he called out? Though praise the lord, Matthews, who knows about the Israel lobby, is finally pointing fingers. When will he talk about Palin's special meeting with AIPAC in St. Paul the day before she was nominated?
