Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon is planning to share the stage in Florida with Jebb and George during the Florida election campaign!
Now is the time for peace negotiations - It's not an appropriate time to recruit the Prime Minister of Israel to go on stage with your little brother.
"For the governor, who frequently reminds voters of his family ties and his support for his brother's war on terrorism, appearing with Sharon will further nurture his relationship with the state's traditionally Democratic-leaning Jewish voters. And it could boost his standing with moderate and conservative Christians who are sympathetic with Israel.
''It would be very hard for any leader to be in Florida from September to November and it not be interpreted as political,'' said Robin Rorapaugh, campaign manager for Democrat Bill McBride, who is running against former U.S. Attorney General Janet Reno and state Sen. Daryl Jones for the nomination to challenge Bush in November.
`PAYBACK'
State Rep. Nan Rich, a Weston Democrat and former president of the National Council of Jewish Women, said: ``The president has supported Israel. This could easily be payback. I would like to think that the prime minister of Israel would stay out of gubernatorial politics in Florida.''

That's scarey... and what a stage act it will be Helen!! The Three Muskateers carrying on about how they're ridding the world of terrorists and blah, blah, blah. I hope by now the Jewish people realize these guys will say anything to gain power.
