Would someone please explain to me why so many Jews support the Democrats blindly.

Why look for logic where none exists?

I think Rush probably has the best theory on this. He says that many Jews are libs and that liberalism becomes their religion and it trumps all other considerations such as religion, race, etc. Another example of this is when a majority of black people will back a white liberal over a black conservative.

In part, because of the success of the left to characterize fascism as 'the political right out of control". This is not true, of course, but it has been so ingrained in our society that it is taught as a truth. I prefer to think of the political spectrum along the lines of 'individualists' vs. 'power centralizationists'. Clearly fascism and communism/socialism share the same penchant for the centralization of power in the few, for the supposed 'benefit' of the many (e.g. Hillary's remark that 'We are going to take things from you for the greater good'). Not surprisingly, both approaches lead to totalitarianism. Still, the leftists have gotten away with parading themselves as the protectors of the people. We've let them do this.

because they have a death wish and are so angst ridden that they feel *they* should have died at Auschwitz, and are trying to make it so as quickly as possible...
