Rick Richman notes -and then comments upon- these "revealing remarks" by Rep. Howard Berman (D-CA), chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, yesterday:
".... [Administration officials] want to be authorized to impose sanctions if they so choose, but they don’t want to be required to impose them.
They cite a number of legitimate reasons for their position: workload concerns, constitutional concerns, and foreign policy concerns."
Workload concerns.
Perhaps the administration could free up some people now reviewing housing permits in Jerusalem to work on this.
