a point you made just before the break, the palestinians have said that they re prepared to bring hamas into government. could you ever imagine any kind of workable administration with hamas? can you imagine a peace deal with al qaeda? of course not. hamas has a constitution. if it tore it up and the constitution calls for the annihilation of israel. if they got rid of that, yes. if they stopped firing rockets or importing rockets to launch on our cities as we just intercepted some iranian rockets yesterday that were intended for hamas. if they stopped terrorism, if they stopped calling for eradication, yes, of course we ll be happy to talk to them. but hamas has not stopped being hamas. they continue to call for liquidation. so what am i going to negotiate with them, the method of them exterminating us? of course not. any country would take a stand
coordinated campaign, coordinated to the use the leverage of power from the president. what are you saying here? the president was involved in the irs mess or not? well, i think what mitch mcconnell was saying, and mitch mcconnell let s back up. he s been a fierce advocate for the first amendment since the beginning of the campaign finance reform. he s fought against the idea of cracking down on political parties. he believes firmly in the idea that we should have a political party that has a strong political system. he believes, and i tend to agree with him, that the president has done his best to demonize his opponents, especially after going after the koch brothers, the tea party groups. i think mitch mcconnell said mitch mcconnell is accusing somebody on the other side of demonizing? it s about obama, getting rid of obama, exterminating obama.
