The number of conservative Jews is trivial compared to the total.
We are blessed with many of them on this forum but the tendency is to defend their Jewishness against any hint of criticism even when terribly wrong.

You do realize that Don Feder is Jewish, right? So? he is correct.

Hell, the Messiah was one of them and they killed him!1)The Messiah hasn't come yet.
2)The Jewish authorities who ordered the execution of J*sus were conservative. In fact, J*sus' overturning of G-d's laws based on his alleged greater authority was very much a forerunner of Jewish liberalism today.

Jews vote democrat always, and no, that does not mean every Jew, only close to 80% which is what everyone is discussing here.
The best vote the republicans ever got from Jews was 45% in 1916, that was the highpoint.

Conservatism doesn’t serve as a religion, though. Or at least not as often as liberalism does. And it’s not as interchangeable with some religions as liberalism, either. For example, Reform Judaism is sometimes jokingly called, the DNC with holidays.

But the conservative ones don’t usually go into politics. A Jewish politician is more likely to be dyed in the wool liberal than otherwise.

Here’s a story I have to share.Years ago I worked in the booze biz,and it was the Passover/Easter season.A Jewish customer comes to the counter with a bottle of Manischewitz Concord Grape wine and a look of frustration/disgust on his face much like the expression on MY face after a day of Christmas shopping.
He just shook his head and said to me,”I hate this time of year because I have to drink this cheap sh*t wine!”
So I said to him,”I really can’t criticize your traditions,bcause while your drinking that cheap wine,I’ll be waiting for a magic rabbit to deliver painted eggs to my house!”
I know it has nothing to do with this thread,but I seem to have started (unintentionally) a small holy war by posting this article.Just trying to lighten the mood.....
How’d I do?

You said that Jews never vote Republican. You should have qualified "most".
And the truth is that Jews have voted for Republican mayors (or at least the Republican line) in NYC for the past 5 elections. This was twice against Jewish Democrats.

I find that Jews who came to America after 1945 are much more likely to vote Republican.

Manischewitz makes good grape juice (and Mad Dog 40) but bad wine. I think they keep making the stuff just to keep generations of Jews from becoming alcoholics. We get served the crap at our Bar or Bat Mitzvah and some holidays and never want to drink wine again!
If you want good Kosher wine, get Barons de Rothschild, Baron Herzog, Yardeni, or Galil Mountain.

You know very well about which I speak. You insist on defining a purity that doesn’t actually exist in the community that is the majority.
You have selected a hair to split where as I was looking at the whole coat

And [conservatism] not as interchangeable with some religions as liberalism, either. Reform Judaism is sometimes jokingly called, the DNC with holidays.That's because of today's Reform rabbinate, which in too many instances can't resist the temptation to pass off its individual leftist political views on their receptive congregations as "Jewish".
Yet there are still some prominent political conservatives who find their version of Reform Judaism compatible with their conservative political philosophy. In fact, that was even more so the case when Reform Judaism was transplanted to the United States by German Jews in the nineteenth century.

Oh, boo-hoo. Go cry to someone else with your ridiculous complaints. If you were booted off a thread it was because you were obnoxious. You can still read any thread you want at FR and stay as informed as you want, so your comment has zero merit.
Anyone who doesn't know that virtually all of the evangelicals and half the catholics voted for obama must have slept through the election. It was reported everywhere, not just here at FR.
