Matthews: With Rubio Out, Jewish Neo-Cons Will Support Hillary Over Cruz
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 03/15/2016 7:17:28 PM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

When it comes to understanding Jewish neo-cons, Chris Matthews doesn't know a bagel from a hole in the ground . . . Speaking on MSNBC after Marco Rubio announced the suspension of his campaign, Matthews claimed that neo-cons like Charles Krauthammer, Bill Kristol and John Podhoretz will find Ted Cruz unacceptable and will instead support Hillary Clinton.

Let's put it this way: the day any of the above-named neo-cons endorses Hillary Clinton, I will gladly send Matthews 10 lbs. of the finest lox and throw in a tub of first-class gefilte fish. Feh on your flawed prediction, Chris. Has Matthews been following any of the above lately? True, they detest Trump. But there's no reason they couldn't support Cruz. And Kristol has openly spoken of supporting a third-party conservative candidate if Trump's the GOP candidate. Speaking as something of a Jewish neo-con myself, this NewsBuster's odds of supporting Hillary over Cruz are approximately equal to those of me eating a ham sandwich at the Wailing Wall at high noon on Yom Kippur.

If they were going to vote for Rubio, they would have been voting for Clinton anyway so I don’t see any difference. Rubio could not beat Clinton. Out of the final four, he was the weakest, IMHO. Trump or Cruz will eat her lunch and kick her ass.

That’s probably the dumbest thing I’ve ever read, especially given the endorsements of Cruz by various Israeli pegs.

Do you have a link to that? It’s not surprising, but I’d like to see it.

Yep, right here on FR (Matthews followed up by acknowledging that his network has "progressive leanings, obviously."):

Caught on a hot mic, Clinton speculates about Chris Christie’s support for Trump

Did you see the Chinese-American guy tonight on Jeopardy? He took a true Daily Double at $19,000. Finished with $50K.

Yes, I could not believe the risk he took.

I kept yelling at the TV, Vancouver, Vancouver, and he pulled it out at the last second.

I think Wolf Blitzer may have scored the worst of any contestant ever, not counting Sean Connery and Turd Ferguson.

Yeah, he’s not right about that. I think neocons could and would support Cruz, but he’s not going to be the nominee.

Forget the gefilte fish and add some good onion bagels.

None of those guys will endorse Hillary. But Kristol has said he'd support a 3rd party candidate if Trump is nominated.

I’m not sure he’s completely wrong on this one.

The neo-con artists are Trotskyites, they support everything that conservatives oppose: abortion, gun control, open borders, hate crimes legislation, affirmative action, political correctness. They’ve managed to con way too many into thinking that they are actually “conservative” based solely on their idea that endless wars in the Middle East are a “conservative value.”

The neo-con artists should have been never been welcomed into the republican party, and once in, they should have been given the boot long ago.

Neocon = Liberal
Majority of American Jews Liberal First
Jewish by birth. Does this sound accurate to you?

I agree with Matthews on this one. Some of them have already admitted it.

I was screaming "Vancouver" too. How could he be so smart, I wondered, and then blow this softball.

BTW, I was born at Lisbon7112 in Detroit in 1942. Another three miles further east and Canada would have another seasoned citizen.
