The Chicago Jewish Star an independent twice-monthly general interest Jewish newspaper wrote an editorial endorsing Governor Romney over their Hometown President Barack Obama.
“It is not only that Mr. Obama thus deserves to be a one-term proposition; it is that Mr. Romney is simply the better bet for our country.” writes the Chicago Jewish Star.
The Following are excerpts of the editorial: In many ways this is still a post-9/11 world. The threat of Islamic terror, a depressed and failing economy, an unsure future for a troubled healthcare system, a genocidal-spewing Iran, an unbalanced Middle East- these are some of the problems which surfaced after that fateful September day and mutated afterwards in unexpected ways.
With his executive experience, belief in the enervating potential of the private sector, proven ability to deal with opposing views, positive outlook and quiet but admirable religious and charitable persona, Mitt Romney is the candidate who can best guide our country in the years ahead.
We like Mr. Romney- and strongly endorse his candidacy for president- because of his moderate, small-government views
We like Mr. Romney because he is able to travel to a hot-bed area like Israel and- openly, unapologetically, and accurately- commend the Jewish state for its achievements, while frankly acknowledging that it is Palestinian recalcitrance which has denied peace to the area.
We like Mr. Romney because he understands the need to create jobs by providing the right environment for the private sector to do so.
Finally, we like Mr. Romney because he, and his running mate Paul Ryan, have announced that they believe in accountability. The buck stops in the Oval Office.
Finally we like Mr. Romney in comparison to his opponent. The administration of Barack Obama has been a failure.
Contrary to the implications of Mr. Obama’s 2008 statement, Americans provided for the sick before his time; the rise of the oceans did not begin “to slow” and our planet did not begin “to heal”- not in a metaphoric sense and not in a real one.
Mr. Obama’s unsatisfactory direction for America was rooted in untenable assumptions, fueled by arrogance, and promoted by divisiveness. We don’t need more of that.
It is not only that Mr. Obama thus deserves to be a one-term proposition; it is that Mr. Romney is simply the better bet for our country.
Should I link your SLC to this one? LOL.
I find this one much more impressive!!!
LMAO
LOL.
This appears to be a publication of moderate-to-devoutly religious Jews who are sensitive to Israel issues. For them, cheering on Mitt Romney against Barack Obama is almost a no brainer.
They have a Jewish newspaper in Nnyang’oma Kogelo Nyanza, Kenya?
Obviously, it’s racist of them to withhold their support for the Jew Hater In Chief.
L o L !
Not so in Miami Beach or Sunrise, Florida though...SADLY. Why South Florida Jews just don’t get it with Obama is BEYOND me.
Follow the money
Ping! (Do you think this will make a difference with Linda and Chuck?
Love to speak to the better half's relatives who are Jewish in the Northern Burbs who supported him before.. LOL!!! I'll try to be nice :-)...
If you’d like to be on or off, please FR mail me.
