The two clowns both advanced the notion of an Imperial Presidency when the Israel question came up. Hillary would extend a NATO-like umbrella over the Middle East and strike back "massively" if the Motherland were attacked. Obama forwarded similar assurances, neither one bothering to mention the Constitutional requirement of a declaration of war. I suppose this is another core value the O'philes will slip under the rug and ignore.

This differs from the GOP how?
I guess this is the lack of core values the GOPers want to slip under the rug and ignore. There is nothing more stridently Israel-first than the Neo-Cons who control the GOP.
I guess maybe there is a difference. Clinton/Obama talk about a response to an attack. Cheney/McCain talk about wait, hell, bomb bomb bomb.
I believe what Obama actually said was that if Israel were attacked, the U.S. would make an "appropriate response," which could mean anything or nothing. Hillary promised a massive response.
