There certainly seem to be a lot of descendants of eastern European immigrants among prominent anti-American writers. I wonder what the story is with that. Anyone have any ideas?

Some Eastern European Jews coming from a background of Tsarist oppression not too surprising gravitated towards labor unions and such as a means of protecting the weak, and that continued when they came to this country and no longer had a Tsar oppressing them. Their children picked up the same attitudes, and some of them grew up to become the violent 60s radicals.

To this day, many Jews reflexively vote left wing even though the left wing now stands for oppression. A lot of them have figured out what is going on, and that the left is no friend of American Jews. Obama's conduct in office is making this obvious.
