      That isn’t what the article said, it isn’t even what the rest of the quote I posted said.

        And your point? Just because they found an idiot they could quote doesnt make it a wide spread viewpoint. Also if she had won she would have had a lot more clout in the remaining months on policy.

          My point is that you’re not making any responses which are relevant here. You’re making inventions out of your assumptions and trying to get other people to talk about those instead of the quote.

          But the quote is right there, and it doesn’t matter if you think the actual mayor of Dearborn is an unrepresentative idiot or not, does it? Plenty of other folks disagree, and they’re not on the internet trying to set up straw men to dunk with.

              Ah you’re right, the council member.

              Okay, I’ve reread it. What part of your comments should make more sense now?

                The part were no one was asking her to put an immediate stop the the blood bath. The ask was that she commit to upholding leahy and other American laws w/ respect to a genocidal Israel regime. Im sorry you lack the ability to put comments into context of a larger conversation.

                Im sure if you asked the council member to clarify they would have said ‘of course i meant after she was elected’
