Sorry, I can't help myself:Israel Bonds a 'good deal' for the county

Cuyahoga County Treasurer Jim Rokakis insists he is not sending a "political message" with his recent purchase of $5 million in State of Israel Bonds.
"This is a good deal for the county," he told the CJN during a Monday morning phone interview. The bonds "help us meet our fiduciary responsibility to the taxpayers by diversifying the (county's investment) portfolio and providing an excellent rate of return."
Israel grants all Americans the "Rate of Return."
