“we need to make sure that this president…not allow his administration to somehow speak contrary to what our ally thinks is in its best interest.” (emphasis added)
Eric Cantor on President Obama's AIPAC speech
It is refreshing to have all the niceties out of the way and to forthrightly clarify our foreign policy objectives as practiced by both political parties--i.e. what our allies think is in their best interest.
Oops sorry, I misread that. It is ally not allies. And so, we are not to contradict what this particular ally and this ally alone thinks is in their best interest. Too bad Great Britain, France, Canada, Australia, Turkey, etc.
So...would Eric allow our military band to play "Hail to the Chief" whenever Bibi walks into the room?
