Why Do Jews Still Vote Democrat?
Environmental Republican ^ | June 8, 2008

Posted on 06/08/2008 7:12:41 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

The media fell all over themselves when Obama spoke in front of AIPAC as he did his best to cozy up to the Jewish community. But the media fails to mention that the liberal wing of the Democrat party is dangerously close to outright anti-Semitism (if not there already). Charles Johnson has detailed this extensively every time someone at Obama-backing Daily Kos (including old "screw them" Kos himself) lets down their guard and lets their true anti-Semitism be seen.

Still the Jewish vote goes for whatever Democrat happens to be running. I'm guessing that they feel that a Jewish president or vice presidential candidate will eventually be elected and he or she will be a Democrat. What they fail to see what the libs did to Joe Lieberman as soon as he strayed too far off the reservation for their liking; they advocated hard against him forcing him to win as an independent.

But what of Barack Obama? Well, his own site delved into the anti-Semitic waters today before being expunged from the site. Charles carries these two screen caps:

(AT LINK)

Pleasant, huh? This from sites that are run and owned by Obama or his people. Note in the second image the Star of David with a dollar sign, a nice touch there.

Back to Obama speaking at AIPAC. He said the right things but why do I get the feeling that his people are talking to Muslim leaders and saying that he really didn't mean it, it's just politics you know like when he called for the repeal of NAFTA and his people were telling Canada and expressing that it was just politically expedient to say such things. You know, wink, wink, nudge, nudge.

Maybe one day the Jews will wake up and realize that the GOP has done more for Jews and Israel than the Donks ever did. President Bush was fully supportive of the Israeli attacks against Syrian nuke sites and has been about the best friend they have had going back to the anti-Israeli Durban conference. Perhaps they will finally get it when Obama abandons them when they need it most.

The Democratic Party is part of the self image, the identity, of many Jewish people. People cling tenaciously to their self image, regardless of evidence to the contrary.

They see supporting Democrats as a link to a heritage of prosecution. If they admit that this is the promised land, that they have it made, they lose their legacy, they would have to identify with the top dogs, the winners.

Some people would rather support anti-semites who pose a real threat to Israel than forfeit the right to claim to be prosecuted.

I think I’m missing your point. Please clarify.

I havw wondered this often. The numbers of Jewish Nobel Prize winners are heavily in favor of Jewish winners over muslems even though muslems have a huge advantage in population. The reason that 80% or so of Jewish voters side with “D” candidates who support the islamists is completely beyond me.

Why do Catholics vote Democrat?

The answer is — most were raised as “Red Diaper Doper Babies” — with DNA from Eastern Europe’s Communist Leaning Jews...

They felt more allegiance to Stalin and the Communist forces that “liberated” them from the Nazis and then enslaved them.

Many remain Communists to this day — but under new more “acceptable” labels: Democrat, Liberal, Progressive, Leftist, etc...

This is one of the most perplexing questions I’ve had as well. For the life of me, I simply can not make any sense of why Jews support the dims... It seems to me that Jews, in general, would never support the vast majority of the party planks adopted by the dims...

“Why do Catholics vote Democrat?”

Uh, they don’t. But jews vote Democrat in a ridiculously high percentage of their population. Primarily because they would rather have control, which they do in the Democrat party. They choose control and influence, to serve their own interests, over what is best for everyone in the mix. Sorry guys, just the way it is.

Every Catholic I know is hot and heavy for Obama. I don’t get it. I ask these people “How can you be Catholic and be pro-choice at the same time?” and they just say “Well, because he’s the Democrat.”

Like many liberals, guilt. In their case, Jewish guilt.

Because in the past the Country Club Republicans excluded both Catholics and Jews from their clubs, had restrictive covenants on their houses, blocked entry to professional schools and colleges... etc

The irony, most of the descendents of the Country Clubbers who did this stuff aren’t even Republicans anymore (and the rest are RINOs).

But the Republican brand name still gets blamed...

However, i think there is some polling data suggesting large numbers of jews may be ready to move away from the ‘Rats - and i think Obama is the one to move them.
