How could Obama be wrong when 78% of Jewish voters in the last election supported him; the irony being that percentage wont change much come the next election.
You know, I am curious why every Israel thread has a comment like this. What is the point? Obama has a 4% popularity in Israel. He is overwhelmingly dispised there. So, why does American Jewry's liberal slant get mentioned each time?
It sounds almost like "blame the victim." So, let's get this clear: Jews didn't deserve the first Holocaust, and they won't deserve the one that is on the horizon, even if they had voted for Hussein. But to the point: Israelis didn't vote for for him. Americans did.

Every Israel thread has a comment like that because its pertinent.
Its not some crypto-setup for the “Jews deserving it”. It simply displays the colossal divide between American Jews and reality.

You could argue left and right , but the facts are the facts.

Well said, but one does have to appreciate the irony of the left slant American Jews have...it just seems illogical as can be.
