It’s been quite a year for Attorney General Kathleen Kane.
The Moulton report was released, an email scandal emerged and a feud with Frank Fina threatens to engulf her tenure.
Journalists and political observers have gone from speculating about what future office she would seek to wondering if she has a political future.
Therefore, this serves as a good moment to ask our readers how they feel the Attorney General is doing.
Are you happy with her tenure so far or are you disappointed?
Do you approve or disapprove of Attorney General Kathleen Kane’s overall job performance?
- Disapprove (62%)
- Approve (38%)

Netanyahu has his head up his @ss and is wrong about Iran. The U.S. should not be taking advice from this war criminal.
Obama has this right, and it’s better for Israel. The “problem” is that what’s good for Israel is bad for Netanyahu’s political career built on fear-mongering.
But, you and Netanyahu can go down together with your plans to hurt Israel.
@ DD:
Each of your examples is derivative of the model that BHO promotes, namely, that the fundamental conflict in the Middle East is the Arab war against Israel; BB, on the other hand, views the greater concern to be Iran and – by extension – the Islamic State [for both are variants on “Islamism”].
This conflict emerged years ago when the two sat in the White House and, with all due respect, BHO was upbraided in his presence [unprecedented before and since]; subsequent events have borne-out the veracity of BB’s paradigm over that of BHO, for it is impossible to conceptualize what is transpiring [for example] in Iraq/Syria as having anything to do with Israel [or, specifically, the half-dozen bullet-points you raised].
This is why you would be best-advised to rethink your assumptions for, once you “see the light” [namely, the existential dangers of Islamic Terrorism and how these monsters are still fighting the Crusades], you will perceive the presumed schisms you distilled as models that BB has established for BHO to emulate.
Robert-
Several ways Israel is working against US interests:
1) Israel’s settlement expansion interferes with the peace process, and raises tension/violence in the region. This hurts US interests in the region, as well as requiring more time/resources from us to maintain stability.
2) Our public support of Israel’s behavior (even though we clearly disagree with it privately) hurts our diplomatic efforts with other countries. We keep blocking votes in the UN to sanction them properly, and lose our moral authority.
3) Support for this new nationality bill undermines democracy in Israel. It it passes, Israel will cease to be a democracy and become a theocracy.
4) Israel’s brutal occupation of Palestine hurts US credibility in going after other abusive regimes.
5) The US has pledged about $400 million for Palestinian relief and rebuilding efforts. This is after having spent money that Israel used to cause the suffering and damage.
6) Israel’s nuclear capabilities are fueling the desire for countries like Iran to want nuclear defenses in case of Israeli attack. They fear Israel more than Israel fears them.
@ DD:
Again, rather than admit error, you emit another unfounded accusation: “Israel is working against U.S. interests.”
Provide your best example of how the only Democracy in the Middle East is hurting America…or add this charge to the list of those you should rescind.
Robert
“defend little Israel from being destroyed by the surrounding nations” That’s a laugh.
Israel has hundreds of nukes, top U.S. fighter jets, and other advanced weaponry. They are the dominant military power and the bullies in the region, not poor and defenseless.
Nothing for me to “atone” for. Israel is working against U.S. interests, as well as basic human rights and decency. There is no obligation to support them. You put blind obedience to Israel ahead of the U.S., so maybe you should move there and renounce your U.S. citizenship. Israel has much to atone for.
@ DD:
Instead of attempting to refute my dummied-down presentation of your deceit, you have attempted to open new topics [again]; regarding the Lebanon war, for example, you fail to mention the response of the IDF to the “testimony” [delivered to whom?] conveyed in a sloppily-written article published in a leftie-entity [which, in Israel’s open society, is free to do so].
Indeed, your conclusion is both oxymoronic internally [the USA should have cut-off sending the illegal arms it had been sending to Israel in ’06] and conflicts with your earlier pronouncement [that Israel’s having nukes should have forestalled the provision of aid by the USA [noting that, allegedly, “whatever is in Dimona” was discussed by Golda with Nixon, decades ago].
*
Your deviousness was, pathologically, manifest in your first reaction to the double-presentation of my summary of your claims [elaborative, then terse].
[1]–Your claim [“I’ve shown you several articles that state categorically that the NEW (ie 2014 bill) is a radical deviation from 1948 principles to the present”] is both tangential [for you don’t recognize the fact that, currently, the ’48 pronouncement is controlling] and untrue [you cited the NY-Times editorial].
Specifically, arguing about the DEGREE to which Israel is a “Jewish State” is irrelevant, for you must [in the process] concur that Israel IS [currently, @ this point in time] a “Jewish State” [thereby satisfying your criterion for her to be “opposed” rather than merely be “not supported”].
Indeed, since this has been the case since ’48, my conclusion that you have wanted the USA to have acted to destroy this entity from its inception constitutes an air-tight conclusion; your ignorance of the black-letter lingo in Israel’s founding document created this inescapable conundrum for you, and no amount of rhetorical legerdemain can rescue you from your having condemned the existence of Israel for 66 years.
[2]–Taking your compulsion to invoke “moral equivalence” to cover-up your error, you have even attempted to justify the existence of The Islamic State [“The type of Jewish state under the new bill would be the Jewish equivalent of ISIS wanting an Islamic state”] absent any citation [including from the leftie-entities you love to quote] that would suggest [1]–this metaphor is justified, and/or [2]–Israel would ever engage in the type of barbarism Islamists have been evincing globally as they try to create a worldwide Caliphate.
[3]–You falsely claim I took you out-of-context [“You’ve jumped from my statement that the Palestinians have valid grievances to create your own conclusion that it’s equal to aiding/abetting?”] despite my having fed-back your precise quotation [for your lingo is precisely what has been used by Hamas to justify its actions].
You did more than claim “the Palestinians have valid grievances” when you linked this [false] assertion to claiming the behavior of Hamas is “reasonable” as a result [thereby “aiding/abetting? its terrorism]; you should condemn the acts of both Hamas and the Islamic State, for NOTHING justifies their murderous ways [that also, BTW, violate the Geneva Accords you routinely trot-out to attack Israel].
[4]–Finally, consistent with the behavior of The Ugly American, you wish to dictate a final-solution to the Arab war against Israel [“The US and UN should just draw the new borders themselves for Israel/Palestine, write the peace treaty, and end the occupation/blockades. Either country failing to adhere to the US/UN borders or sign the peace treaty, should be treated as a rogue nation, with appropriate international sanctions.”]
By that measure, you should already have been treating the PA as a “rogue nation” for it has failed to comply with the first stage of Oslo [instead, admittedly fomenting hatred of Muslims towards Jews, continuing a policy that has been manifest consistently without altering it in the ’90’s]. You also must confront the fact that UN “safeguards” [UNIFIL] have proven unreliable in Lebanon.
idfblog.com/hezbollah/2013/06/12/hezbollah-violates-un-resolutions/
Thus, also recalling the precipitous withdrawal of UN forces from Sinai in 5/1967 [@ the behest of Nasser], Israel would justifiably fear depending upon external entities to provide sufficient security; recall also that you would envision returning to the pre-’67 status that, itself, served as provocation for multiple nations to attack Israel’s existence.
*
Therefore, you have channeled BHO’s frustration with BB’s ongoing effort to defend little Israel from being destroyed by the surrounding nations [as they would eagerly take pause from fighting each other to KO Eretz Yisrael].
Your claims are both incorrect and insufficient, for they cannot be documented and they do not serve to alter your prior [referenced] attacks on Israel’s existence [and endorsement of “reasonable” ways terrorists react thereto].
ATONE!
Robert-
By the way, just to be specific, US military support (in the form of weapon sales and money) to Israel should have ended when they used the cluster bombs on Lebanon in 2006. Those involved should have tried for war crimes.
http://www.haaretz.com/news/idf-commander-we-fired-more-than-a-million-cluster-bombs-in-lebanon-1.197099
Basically, 2006 was the year that Israel jumped-the-shark and showed itself to be no better than it’s enemies, and unworthy of US support. It was made worse by the fact that Israel used US made cluster-bombs in violation of agreements on their use as well as international law.
Robert-
All you have left is lies.
– I’ve shown you several articles that state categorically that the NEW (ie 2014 bill) is a radical deviation from 1948 principles to the present. So, since I don’t believe that the bill represents the same type of Jewish state as 1948, you have no basis for your claim. The type of Jewish state under the new bill would be the Jewish equivalent of ISIS wanting an Islamic state.
– You’ve jumped from my statement that the Palestinians have valid grievances to create your own conclusion that it’s equal to aiding/abetting? Wow. That’s a leap even for your addled brain.
The US and UN should just draw the new borders themselves for Israel/Palestine, write the peace treaty, and end the occupation/blockades. Either country failing to adhere to the US/UN borders or sign the peace treaty, should be treated as a rogue nation, with appropriate international sanctions.
@ DD:
Recognizing your admittedly-limited attention-skills, I will collapse-down the prior posting; you are desperate to alter the record, but res-ipsa-loquitur.
THEREFORE, you unambiguously have – since Israel’s inception on 5/15/1948 as a “Jewish State” – called for America to overthrow Israel [regardless of which party was in-control @ the time].
THEREFORE, because you claim the Palestinians have a rational basis for their attacks on Israel, you have declared your intent to aid/abet “terrorism” [as per the US State Dept.].
To recap, you have advocated the US to overthrow Israel, and you have supported the rationale Hamas has invoked to justify committing terrorist acts.
You are again invited to atone.
Robert-
Blah. Blah. Blah.
Your post is too long and boring to bother reading.
@ DD:
You are desperate to alter the record, but res-ipsa-loquitur.

Corrupting the common parlance when the word “overthrow” is employed, you now claim, “I am advocating for the overthrow of the Israeli government by the left-centrist Jewish political parties. You like to leave out who I want to do the overthrowing. (I wish the US would/could help by denouncing Netanyahu or putting him on trial for war crimes.)”
On November 25, 2014 [at 1:07 a.m.], you wrote, “Unless all citizens have equal rights, regardless of their religion or ethic background, then a state that defines itself otherwise should receive no support from the US.If by “Jewish state” it merely means that it supports and promotes Jewish culture/people, but not at the expense of the rights of non-Jews, then that would be acceptable. If it means that it plans to engage in ethic cleansing of non-Jews, then it should be opposed by the US.”
On November 27, 2014 [at 12:19 a.m.], you wrote, “I did say I opposed the policies of Israel’s Likud party. So, I would like to see the Likud party dismantled/disbanded/overthrown by the centrist and left wing parties within Israel, but not Israel itself.”
Note your belated introduction of the “Likud” reference, a party reference that, alas, you failed to state in the initial attack on Israel. Thus, because the Israeli government is led by BB [in the Likud], you wrote that you “oppose” Israel and defined “oppose” as inter-alia advocating that America seek the overthrow of Israel.
israel-independence.com/translation.asp
THEREFORE, you unambiguously have – since Israel’s inception on 5/15/1948 as a “Jewish State” – called for America to overthrow Israel [regardless of which party was in-control @ the time].
Corrupting the common parlance when the word “endorse” is employed, you now claim, “You keep saying that I endorse Hamas’s behavior. I haven’t. Their behavior has been ineffective at ending the cruel occupation of Palestinian territories. Israel’s behavior has been worse, and I don’t endorse it either.”
No, you did more than “merely” compose an observation; on November 21, 2014 [at 9:07 p.m.], you wrote “The Palestinians have a rational basis for their attacks on Israel.” Your only objection to full-throated endorsement is the claim that the efforts have been ineffective [not that you oppose them]. Indeed, you then lapse into your “moral equivalency” game [inserting a gratuitous slap @ Israel]. There is no justifiable “rationale” for the terrorism being promulgated by Hamas [and the Islamic State], notwithstanding your undocumented assertions, for Hamas is currently listed by the US as a “Foreign Terrorist Organization.”
state.gov/j/ct/rls/other/des/123085.htm
THEREFORE, because you claim the Palestinians have a rational basis for their attacks on Israel, you have declared your intent to aid/abet “terrorism” [as per the US State Dept.].

You continue to demonstrate your ignorance, prompting one to wonder if your lack of basic knowledge informs your politics; by extension, gross-deficiencies in this case suggest that you may also harbor a fundamental aberration when assessing others upon which you “authoritatively” blog, such as on PoliticsPA].
I consider people such as yourself to be dangerous, for your Dem-party is dominated by people who harbor views such as yours; this is also applicable, to some degree, to Alan Dershowitz who, inter-alia, has endorsed rendering sections of Israel to become Judenrein and has refused to condemn BHO until/unless Iran gets the Bomb].
To recap, you have advocated the US to overthrow Israel, and you have supported the rationale Hamas has invoked to justify committing terrorist acts.

– You keep saying that I endorse Hamas’s behavior. I haven’t. Their behavior has been ineffective at ending the cruel occupation of Palestinian territories. Israel’s behavior has been worse, and I don’t endorse it either.
@ DD:
My logic does not start with the false premise that anyone who disagrees with Israel’s official position on any policy is automatically an anti-Semite; my logic starts with quoting Israel’s founding-document, although you have yet to acknowledge its applicability, despite its containing the simple declarative sentence that Israel is a Jewish State.
You did “mind-read” because, although my past support of Israel does not necessarily imply I would agree with new leadership implementing policy ideas that you currently condemn [whatever they may be], I just stated that I support all Israeli governments [regardless of which party organized the majority coalition].
Therefore, I have defined all links in the logical-chain, starting with your mistaken-belief that Israel is not yet a self-declared Jewish State and ending with your opposition thereto because of what you perceive as Ethnic Cleansing being conducted by a Likud-led government.
*
To recap, as per conclusions drawn and extensively documented elsewhere, notwithstanding your customary diatribe against my postings…
…You have again failed to break the logical chain that proved you to be advocating the overthrow of the Israeli government; indeed, you have now been shown to have the desire to have applied this heinous policy throughout Israel’s entire lifetime…
…explaining why you have endorsed the behavior of Hamas [which the USA has designated as a terrorist organization] that is, itself, promoting policies that are consonant with those of the barbaric Islamic State.
politicspa.com/kathleen-kane-tells-cnn-pornographic-emails-included-pictures-of-children/61928/
Robert-
I did deal with specifics.
I didn’t “mind-read” because your past support if Israel does not necessarily imply you would agree with new leadership implementing policy ideas that you currently condemn. Also, I presented two possibilities: you agreeing or not agreeing. So, you calling it mind-reading is like if you called a prediction of “heads or tails” to be fortunetelling.
You’ve yet to make your first point.
You are still off-topic (and off your rocker).
@ DD:
Again, all you can do is attempt to smear, rather than to deal with the specifics of what I wrote.
Furthermore, your mind-read is in-error; I have supported “Israel” regardless of the party in leadership.
Therefore, again, in the absence of any refutation of my points, you are condemned to live with the import of your words.
Robert
Your “logic” starts with the false premise that anyone who disagrees with Israel’s official position on any policy is automatically an anti-Semite. Jews disagreeing with policy get your additional scorn as self-hating Jews.
Therefore, your logic chain fails to form the first link.
This has led you to your insane conclusion that Obama is an anti-Semite. Ample proof that you are f*cking nuts.
I look forward to Likud party ousted by left-centrist Jewish parties, and then you showing your “anti-Semitism” by disagreeing with their policies (or having to accept them and choke on the words). Either way, your hypocrisy is going to bite you in the @ss.

You are digging yourself a hole. Keep shoveling.
@ DD:
The only two complaints are from you (devoid of credibility) and a fellow-dem who won’t answer a simple question in follow-up of his comment; informing readers of your attitude is a public service for reasons aforementioned.
Robert
Posting off topic is likely to get you censored on any blog, especially since other posters are complaining about your antics. Grow up
@ DinkyDoo:
The reason why partisanship has been superimposed on the component of incompetence is that she claimed “racism” precluded her from prosecuting a bunch of Dem-Reps who were caught being paid-off…on tape.
@ DD:
You claim to speak on behalf of Sy Snyder without any documentation you are capturing his viewpoints; to the contrary, in the process of undermining your credibility, I have demonstrated [not withstanding your undocumented, ad-hominem yelps of “racism”] that you are not credible.
Methodically, I reassembled [by cut/paste, to ensure I didn’t affect “context”] your own words to demonstrate the depth of your anti-Semitism; I “triangualated” quotations to show that any one citation was not merely an isolated aberration.
Your reaction was to retrench rather than to “own” your prior assertions, which were based upon your ignorance of Israel’s history [specifically, her founding-document]; most dramatic was your stated-desire to “oppose Israel” [notably, NOT “Israeli policies”] because the “Jewish State” has – in your view – engaged in Ethnic Cleansing.
These views are anathema to most patriotic Americans, for you have then morphed them into defending Hamas, which is a recognized terrorist-organization; ironically, this is occurring within the context of increasing recognition of the dangers associated with an entity that shares the Hamas ideology, the Islamic State.
What is hilarious about this is that there is a completely incompetent AG whose incompetence is personal and not driven by party agenda. Next you have the lunatic right wing fringe who choose to attack solely on the basis of ideology.
Why can’t we all admit she’s an idiot because she is and leave party politics out of it.
Robert
Your entire defense to PAFAO boils down to you viewing yourself as a giant prophylactic.
Bravo. LMAO. 🙂
PAFOA
Robert is just an anti-Arab racist, who can’t stand the idea of anyone thinking Arabs are human beings with equal rights or valid grievances. He can’t help himself lying about other’s postings, because he is too paranoid and delusional to face his own hypocrisy. Robert is simply not a well man mentally, and can’t control himself enough to post on-topic comments, and respect the other posters.
I’ve warned him that he risks being censored by the moderators for initiating these off-topic tirades, but I’ve had no luck so far in getting through to him.
@ PAFAO:
The goal was to discredit DD, and this has now been achieved; follow the hyperlink below to where he relented, altering his stances accordingly.

You are now protected against having to weigh anything he may type as being relevant or reliable; meanwhile, you haven’t replied to my gambit regarding the specific topic-heading.
Skiaroff, you know she is just a state politician, she doesn’t have a thing to do with your Israel beef. Go away.
@ Brad, Big, Todd, Bob, Jason, PocketProtector, and PAFAO:
I had initially been impressed with her; she “spoke” @ the biennial Comedy-Night in Philly and seemed both self-effacing and interactive.
Yet, the accumulation of glitches is highly-problematic. For example, I have been critical of Corbett regarding Sandusky [despite my being a GOP Committeeman for two decades], but she screwed-up the roll-out of her findings; hidden therein was evidence that Corbett had not rendered an explanation for why the investigation had been on a hiatus [basically] during the year prior to his election in ’10, only to be picked-up shortly after his inauguration. Specifically, they interviewed everyone in Second Mild in ’11…and there is no reason why they couldn’t have done so in ’10. Yet, because of the false accusations of “damages,” this point was overlooked and, to-date, no one has asked Corbett what he had been supervising during this critical time-period [for he couldn’t have known whether molestation was ongoing, as he was allowing a perp to run the streets]. I know he wanted a perfect prosecution, but the need for a time-frame shift seemed apparent.
This is an example of AG-Kane’s problems, notwithstanding all the self-inflicted problems; indeed, the cry of “racism” cannot justify having failed to prosecute on-tape corruption by legislators [and her slap-on-the-wrist of Sen. Washington was appalling].
And now the false-accusation about the child-porn has been superimposed, ending with “she mis-spoke”???
Puleeeze!
@ Brad:
I provided info regarding the Credibility of DD; you may wish to reply to my query as to how AG-Kane’s defenders can possibly defend the indefensible…with specificity.
May I ask why when one subject is posted about public figure some petty disputes erupt about the personality differences of commenters?
Get a grip speak about the subject at hand. We others will judge your comments based on objective interests about the subject posted not about your views about each others importance.
My suggestion to the editor is: Please edit the commenters and keep the subject of politics as the goal of this site.
@ The multiple Dems who support AG-Kane:
Why don’t you try to refute the multiple glitches in her conduct that she admits she committed?
KGK can’t clean up a culture created by 30 years of White Male single party control over an agency the size of the Office of Atty. General overnight. The E-mail situation is a prime example of Government loosing sight of it’s mission on behalf of all Citizen’s of Pa. Those involved show how high up in the Agency this culture ran. While many have lost the jobs they were serving in some continue to collect taxpayer funded paychecks.
The whole things has me asking many questions about what went on there for many years. Why did Fina fight to have his own e-mail account excluded ? Something to hide ? If Noonan ( now the head of the Pa State Police ) didn’t view or forward the legally questionable e-mails. Leaves me asking How did he know what they contained and not to view them ? Maybe the better question would be In his upper management position What did he do to put a stop to it ? Didn’t JOE PA get fired for not “doing enough ” ! Doesn’t pass my smell test !!!
Hey, Robert B. Sklaroff, M.D, would you please go away. Your making a fool of yourself. Mz Kane is doing a great job. Hope she runs for governor next.
@ DD:
Your reply to my having “set you straight” was to revert to refuted-arguments and name-calling.
politicspa.com/kathleen-kane-tells-cnn-pornographic-emails-included-pictures-of-children/61928/comment-page-2/#comment-924643
Thus, it is desirable to restate your views [at this moment in time], based upon the aggregate of your language:
–You “oppose” Israel [because BB is engaged in ethnic-cleansing] and, thus, the U.S. should try to “overthrow, dismantle, disband Israel.” [You also had conditioned this posture on the result of an effort to alter Israel’s Basic Law, ignorant of the fact that her Declaration of Independence unambiguously states that Israel is a “Jewish State.”]
***”If Israel wishes to redefine itself as a Jewish state, rather than a Jewish/democratic state, then it should be able to do so. However, if it does do, the U.S. should cease to support it….I conditioned my opposition to “Israel” itself IF it passes the horrific bill in it’s current/proposed form; such an Israel would be an insult to the founders of modern Israel.”***
–In addition, you stated unequivocally: “Israel’s refusal to submit to inspections by the International Atomic Energy Agency should disqualify them from U.S. military aid.” Therefore, you wouldn’t have sustained any support for the IDF [for decades] and you wouldn’t have collaborated in the creation of the Iron Dome [nor would you have rearmed it].
–You support and justify terrorist-policies and wholesale-murder implemented by and praised by Hamas, in its efforts to destroy Israel and kill its citizenry.
–You base your charge that Israeli children are taught to hate Arabs by their parents and/or teachers by citing the perceptions of a radical human-rights activist that “might” yield this conclusion; you have acknowledged that Hamas has ordered UNRWA both to remove references to the Shoah and to promote anti-Semitism.
–You claim that the Judeo-Christian Ethic is delusional and that its impact on the Founders/Framers – disregarding the Enlightenment – was not as great as that of the Magna Carta.
*
Your latest response was lamer than lame; you suggested Israel and America could still share intelligence [despite the absence of any military interaction] and you feel Israel should self-fund the Iron Dome [that you don’t consider to be cost-effective]. You then lapsed into ad-hominem diatribes that failed to refute the above conclusion.
@ DD:
Typical of the confirmed-leftie, you are even stooping to engage in “historical revisionism” with regard to your own postings of extremely recent vintage; damage accrued from your retreat is compounded by how you would unabashedly treat Israel “at this moment in time.”
You stated unequivocally: “Israel’s refusal to submit to inspections by the International Atomic Energy Agency should disqualify them from U.S. military aid.”
Therefore, you wouldn’t have sustained any support for the IDF [for decades], you wouldn’t have collaborated in the creation of the Iron Dome [nor would you have rearmed it], and you wouldn’t be employing intelligence-coordination between D.C./Jerusalem while the rest of the Middle East is in turmoil.
Once the gravitational-force of anti-Zionism has enveloped you, there is no escape from being drawn into the block-hole of anti-Semitism; Jewish lives are so cheap [recalling, for example, your “disproportionate” lament regarding the need for more Israeli civilian casualties to match those in Gaza] that you would apply a “cost-effective” criterion to justify a conclusion that condemns the Iron Dome [that every other sentient being has praised].
There appears to be no end to your venom directed @ Israel, and you even had the gall to claim Israel’s leaders in ’48 would recoil @ characterizing Israel as a “Jewish State”; you would perhaps benefit from noting a quote from her Declaration of Independence [“…DECLARE THE ESTABLISHMENT OF A JEWISH STATE IN ERETZ-ISRAEL, TO BE KNOWN AS THE STATE OF ISRAEL”].
avalon.law.yale.edu/20th_century/israel.asp
@ DD:
In addition, when you attacked current Israeli policy because you oppose the forces behind it [“Netanyahu and the Likud party are criminally destroying Israel by promoting racism, ethnic cleansing, and war crimes against a civilian population”], you are again confirming that you “conditioned” your disapproval of Israel’s existence upon factors that you claimed are extant.
This explains why you support the rationale behind the terrorism being promulgated by Hamas [and, presumably, other murderers such as the Islamic State], and why you attempt to justify the fact that Hamas teaches hatred of Jews [even invoking the “academic” musings of an avowed “radical” opponent of Israel whose interpretations “might” be correct].
As bad as BHO has proven to be, placing America’s leadership into the hands of a mainstream-Dem such as yourself would doom Israel to being overrun immediately [yielding the beheadings of millions of Jews]; as I wrote earlier, you are a Shanda!
@ DD:
You keep making matters worse, for all I’m doing is preserving your comments; for example, superimposing what you wrote elsewhere [@ the same hyperlink as typed previously], at this moment in time, you oppose providing military aid to Israel [due to what you claim are aberrations regarding nuclear weapons].
In addition, you can’t undermine prior analyses with specificity [because all I did was to cut/paste your postings, even preserving their faulty syntax and spelling]:
“I asked: ‘Do you believe that Israel “plans to engage in ethic cleansing of non-Jews, then it should be opposed by the US”?’
“You replied: ‘Not only do I believe that Israel (under people like Netanyahu) plans to engage in ethic cleansing, I believe they are currently engaged in the practice, and have been for years’.”
Thus, you feel Israel has engaged in ethnic-cleansing and continues to do so, and plans to do so; therefore, you “oppose” Israel already [“at of this moment”].
She’s doing a great job of turning off the middle to Democrats. I’d just stay out of her way. She can’t figure out which way is up.
She will be indicted before the holidays.
Robert
You completely misstated my positions, as usual.
Readers noting anything composed by David Diano must know his other policies [at this moment in time], in his own words [reassembled to maximize lucidity]:
DD “opposes” Israel and, thus, feels the U.S. should try to “overthrow, dismantle, disband Israel.”
DD supports and justifies terrorist-policies and wholesale-murder implemented by and praised by Hamas, in its efforts to destroy Israel and kill its citizenry.
DD bases his charge that Israeli children are taught to hate Arabs by their parents and/or teachers by citing the perceptions of a radical human-rights activist that “might” yield this conclusion; DD has acknowledged that Hamas has ordered UNRWA both to remove references to the Shoah and to promote anti-Semitism.
DD claims that the Judeo-Christian Ethic is delusional and that its impact on the Founders/Framers – disregarding the Enlightenment – was not as great as that of the Magna Carta.

JeffO
The marriage laws that were ruled unconstitutional? Kudos to Kane!
Couldn’t ask for more. She has done an outstanding job!
She has dona a great job.
All of you Tea baggers out there , stuff it ! AG Kane has done an Outstanding job. If the GOP was in the office ,Sandusky would still be out there molesting young students. The FRACKING industry that has purchased the General Assembly and the Governors office needs put in check. Even the Pa Supreme Court said that Fracking is Dangerous and will hit the Public Purse HARD ! The Auditor Generals Audit of the PaDEP has found that the complaints from victims of fracking have been true. Cutting enforcement staff in half , and doubling the workload has proved a disaster. The Pa DEPT OF HEALTH has violated its mission statement also. By rejecting any and all complaints about health damage from fracking proves that corrupt politics has destroyed the integrity of all Pa Agencies. AG Kane needs a fence around Pa just for starters. NO FRACKING NEEDED !
She seems to be too partisan.
AG Kane has failed this state in so many ways:
1 – She failed to uphold the marriage laws of the state.
2 – She has revised firearm reciprocity laws with other states, something only the legislator has the power to do.
3 – She failed to prosecute multiple judiciary related crimes in Philly, something that even the Philly DA wanted done.
4 – She decided she needed two bodyguards to drive her 250 miles to and from work each day, on the taxpayers dime!
Shame on all of you who voted for her just because she promised to get to the bottom of the PSU scandal…
It is pretty obvious that she didn’t read the job description before applying for the job, rather like our new governor…
Kane is not Able.
Comparing her to Corbett is faint praise for sure – how can you set the bar any lower?
Pa. would be far better off without the both of them, although I don’t expect any better from Wolf.
“The worst kept secret ”
Kathleen Kane’s hands are tied by the american bar assoc. , the rule 1.6 makes her by law keep quiet about the corruption in pa .
I think she’s has done more in 2 years then Corbett did as AG and govener .
Corbett couldn’t organize a Tupperware party !, keep up the good work General Kane !
Best to you and your staff !
