He gets called a bigot in part 4.

I was confused in part 5 as why he proposed to completely get rid of all diplomatic relations with Israel. It seems kind of extreme, and I have never considered diplomats as foreign intervention in the same as money, war, covert ops etc.

I too was confused by cutting off diplomatic ties.

LOL at Scheuer when he confusingly asks "Did we win?" after the vote at 7:53.

He should have quoted Jefferson when talking about the billions in military aid to Israel that incites hatred in the middle east.

"Peace, commerce and honest friendship with all nations; entangling alliances with none."

We shouldn't cut off all ties with Israel. I think that is isolationism, but I don't believe that is what Scheuer meant.

ya. I don't think he is the be public speaker. He is a little nervous, he reads off paper. He isn't a politician basically.

Can someone help me here. Scheuer was kind of laughing when the other guy called him a bigot and I was pretty mad at the same time. I could've swore I read this on Wikipedia, but didn't AIPAC or some other pro-Israel group release a document saying the best "solution" for Iraq is to invade it and install a democracy?
