Lerner And West On The Democrats' Lock-step On Israel
Current rating: 0

In perhaps his most chilling remark, he attributed the installation of George W. Bush as president to divine intervention. â€"Why is this man in the White House? The majority of Americans did not vote for him. Heâ€(TM)s in the White House because God put him there for a time such as this.”
