This bill is very stupid, and it is pure unadulterated evil, in other
words, it is clearly bipartisan.<br>

Alice thought the Vote for Nobody was funny, but she insists that she
would vote for Ron Paul.<br>

I don't really expect any announcement from David Gill on how he would
have voted on this AIPAC bill - he's quite chary of actually saying
anything on foreign policy issues - but it's worth noting that our
incumbent Congressman Tim Johnson joined Reps. Kucinich and Paul and
three other anti-war Republicans in voting against this nasty bit of
war-mongering.
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I suspect that Gill in Congress would have voted for this bill
on the usual lie - "Obama's trying to avoid war" - which Kucinich and
Paul rightly treat with contempt; whether David Gill or Rodney Davis
becomes our next Congressman, it seems we will have lost our reliable
vote against the Bush-Obama-Romney war policy. </div>
