Welcome to Our Hoosier Board!

Most of the posters here have been around for nearly a decade now. You'll find their knowledge and insight to be second to none. We have a really strong community and value everyone's opinions.

Feel free to jump into any thread and voice your opinion with conviction. We love heated debates and even some fanbase ribbing from time to time. We pride ourselves on the lack of moderation needed to make this board successful.

Please remember that we have been around many years and have an astute ability to tell the difference between an immature, childish, trash-talking troll and a passionate fan voicing his or her opinion. It is at the discretion of Jazen and myself whether any moderating actions should be taken at any given time. It's a very, very rare thing. In other words, no worries....you'll be fine!

Cheers,
sirbrianwilson

Lars, instead of parroting the RNC's latest talking point, you might want to do a little reading up on Rahm's professional life. He is one of the more centrist members in the House.
:rofl:
In 2007, Emanuel Voted With The Democrats 98 Percent Of The Time. (Congressional Quarterly Website, www.cq.com, Accessed 10/31/08)
In 2006, Emanuel Voted With The Democrats 92 Percent Of The Time. (Congressional Quarterly Website, www.cq.com, Accessed 10/31/08)
In 2005, Emanuel Voted With The Democrats 95 Percent Of The Time. (Congressional Quarterly Website, www.cq.com, Accessed 10/31/08)
In 2004, Emanuel Voted With The Democrats 97 Percent Of The Time. (Congressional Quarterly Website, www.cq.com, Accessed 10/31/08)
In 2003, Emanuel Voted With The Democrats 95 Percent Of The Time. (Congressional Quarterly Website, www.cq.com, Accessed 10/31/08)

So, I guess I am a centrist also?

In all fairness, 92% of the votes in congress were forced by a Kansas representative who wanted to put George Washington riding a T-Rex on the quarter.

Uhh Rahm was born in the United States, so that makes him a US citizen. Perhaps He was a dual citizen? Oh and if he left the US to seve in the Israeli army in 1991, then he didn't serve long, because he was a part of Clinton's campaign staff and worked for him in the White House during his first term.

Trouble I agree that Israel has way to much power and influence over American politics. It is an argument that I had on a weekly basis with a former co-worker of mine. But, when you post this stuff that has what appears to be basic factual errors, it erases the credibility of the complete post.

it is factually 100% correct. congrats on jumping the gun to dismiss it. btw, I didnt say he was an israeli anyway, hareetz did. an israeli paper. did you get it when you read it? the hareetz article refered to him that way. do you even know what the irgun was? how about stern gang? who ran these groups? im betting the answer is no.
irgun was run by menecham begin. the same menecham begin who went on to be prime minister in the 70's. after israel was founded, irgun transformed into a viable political party, the likud. yes, the same likud party that sharon and olmert belong to. stern gang (who merged with irgun) was led by yitzhak shamir, who also went on to become prime minister.
even though he was born in america, his family immigrated to chicago the same year he was born. i have no doubt he has dual citizenship. that is another part of the US/israel special relationship.
its not that rahm himself was a member of irgun, as irgun no longer existed when he was born. his father, however was an active member in it. and as a man is often measured by the company he keeps, add this man to ayers, rezko, and wright. top it off, of all the people in the US to appoint to this position, obama puts an israeli-american with extensive ties to A.I.P.A.C. here with his very first appointment.

Trouble not an attack on you. Someone else questioned what you said so I googled it and verified your source. I didn't doubt you.

i know. that reply wasnt directed at you personally. it was directed at the board in general. there are ALOT of things that go on in this country and the msm never hits on it. if i put something up of a news nature, no matter how preposterous it may originally sound, you can bet ive vetted it for accuracy.
a funny thing about this post though; i cut and paste info from about 3 different sources to make one coherent, and hopefully, seemless thought. my sources? hareetz, (an israeli newspaper), the jerusalem post, and basically an op-ed wrote by chris bollyn. 2 of the 3 sources are israeli publications.
