So what is your point? To disparage a group of people?

I really do think that people who make it a point to do this are saying something else entirely.

It is a much better idea to celebrate - treasure and welcome - those who would join us rather than harp on those who do not.

For ever liberal Jew you have name in Congress - I could name hundreds of Christians who are liberal.

But I wouldn't do that. I don't judge Christians that way. I judge each person according to his/her individual actions - not because of church affiliation.

I don't disparage people because of their religious affiliation - unless they wear bomb belts.

I was waiting for you to pull the anti-semite card. My point is that Jews represent the Dems second most loyal constituency. There is no discernable groudswell of Jews leaving the Dem party for the Reps. They have been voting overwhelmingly for the Dems for 90 years. It has nothing to do with disparaging a group of people. It is a fact and should be accepted as such. I don't hate liberals, I just disagree with them.

Jews are a political force in this country in much the same way that Evangelical Christians are. AIPAC is a very effective lobbying group, which has a political agenda. It has nothing to do with religion.

While the Catholics, Protestants and Jews bicker among themselves like little kids in a sandbox, Muslim wolves are circling the sandbox.
