If you check his history, he does back up his words with action. He did with Carter anyway.

Liberal Jews who help the dems destroy America but find principles when it comes to Israel should all move there.

[perfect_rovian_storm]

You should move there too. Trust me, nobody would miss you. Certainly nobody here anyway.

[scooby321]

If he can change some Jewish Donors not to give to Obama then its a win.

[Spartan79]

He still won’t be a real republican, he is NYC Urb to the core.

Give Ed some slack. He's not throwing his hat into the primary race.

The pubbies could use a few humerous urbies in the ranks. I remember a delicious comment he made when a reporter asked him if he resented the voters of New York City's tossing him out.

"Not really", replied Koch. "I'll get a better job, and New York won't get a better mayor".

They got Dinkins.

[Zuben Elgenubi]

I thought he stated the case quite well. So who made you hall monitor?

Liberal Jews who help the dems destroy America but find principles when it comes to Israel should all move there.

I remember a delicious comment he made when a reporter asked him if he resented the voters of New York City's tossing him out.

Hizzoner is always fond of saying "the people" voted him out.....MYTH!!! The truth is that his own party, the Democrats voted him out in the primary.

[Gondring]

I’ll believe it if he actually says it.

[Incorrigible]

[SWAMPSNIPER]

I wouldn’t care what the Damned fools do if they’d keep it there.

[SC_Pete]

Beat me to it.

[SJSAMPLE]

Ed was NEVER a big Obama supporter.

To be fair, many Republicans continued to toe the party line when its members were pushing for amnesty for illegal aliens.

Ed’s speeches and editorials during the Dubya era show a guy who wasn’t ideologically paralyzed in the face fo Islamic incursions.

[screaminsunshine]

Pat Buchannan thinks Obamas plan is great. How do the Joos here like that?

[unkus]

That Koch even came out and said this is going to make a lot of libs in general wake up a bit.

[SJSAMPLE]

If they’re already “here” (FR), they get it.

[Carley]

Koch openly supported GW Bush over jon carry.

[RedMDer]

Join us Mayor Koch
We stand with Israel!

[reg45]

I’m not certain that it was FDR as much as the Southern Democrats who were a key part of FDR’s coalition. The Secretary of State at the time - Cordell Hull (a southerner) - also opposed admission of the passengers into the United States.

I wish my Sheepel would learn to use their Kup!
