Secular/Cultural Jews (like their counterparts in the “Christian” world) hate practicing and outspoken Christians.
I posted this in part because this is the conversation we need to be having. The “elites” like Bill Kristol, David Brooks, David Frum are truly not fellow travelers.
He isn’t even American. He is Canadian!
Just yesterday he was being held up as credible arbiter of the Palin smears.
David Frum. A straight Andrew Sullivan
We don’t drop, we ascend.
We know Sarah Palin got that little weasel John McCain further than he would have gone. Vote for her on this poll: http://www.misterpoll.com/polls/366171/results
That makes for seventeen years, then, between the two of us.
Evidently, Mr. Frum is auditioning for the coveted ongoing role of Simon Legree.

AuntB, the analogy I use is that conservatives are like Charlie Brown, and the GOP is like Lucy snapping the football away from him.
How many times will we allow this to happen?
We need to let go of the GOP and form a conservative party and take the best and brightest conservatives with us.
The GOP can no longer be fixed.
We need to move on, and leave them behind to join the Whigs in political history.
Okay. I can't top that one. ;)
I hope we can look down from heaven to hades and see who is there!
“Secular/Cultural Jews..... hate practicing and outspoken Christians.”

As reliable as the rising sun.
The traditional and good cheer wish, “Merry Christmas” is like a crucifix to a vampire.
NR has been off my list for some time. While there are still some good people there, people like Frum are now more representative of the magazine. So long as that is the case they do not represent me, the base of the party or conservatisism. When NR cleans house, I’ll start reading again.
I’m aware of that.
These days, however, one’s nationality means very little.
Frum has quite a history of being the GOP’s self-appointed Chicken Little. Most famously, his tome Dead Right proclaimed the intellectual and electoral barrenness of conservatism in general and the GOP in particular, and offered Frum’s own prescriptions for the renewals of both. The blurb on the original edition’s cover read, “The great conservative revival of the 1980’s is over. Government is bigger, taxes are higher, family values are weaker, and the Democrats are in power. What will the Right do next?”
Hilariously, Frum’s question was answered just over two months after the August 1994 publication of Dead Right, when a back-bencher from Georgia led a Republican takeover of Congress that lasted for nearly a decade and a half....
Well worth the read -- Frum keeps forgetting history, poor man, so he's obviously among those who are doomed to repeat it. Watch for a new book, of course.
Try First Things - it is really good.
“College-educated Americans have come to believe that their money is safe with Democrats—but their values are under threat from Republicans.”
Is that why why Asian-Americans, who have the highest percentage of college graduates in this country, vote overwhelmingly for the Republican Party, while African-Americans, who have by far the lowest percentage of college graduates, and have the highest percentage of felons and criminals, vote overwhelmingly for the Democrats?
