Liberals are offended by truth and will twist it to suit their dangerous agenda. The only ones who listen to liberals are fellow liberals.
My experience is that most Jews are committed Liberals with no actual religious conviction.
Reformed Synagogues are just Democrat Party Meetings with interesting cultural flotsam.
I went to Purim in Seattle at one such commune (ahem, Synagogue), and they LITERALLY replaced “Haman” with “Bush”. If you know the holiday, it’s like saying “Bush” instead of “Judas” sold out Christ.
Wow.
” I suspect that the reason is that most Jews are non-religious and they feel uncomfortable with a political party that is composed of active Christians.”
Part of it is that. But part of it is that Christians both Protestant and Catholic don’t have a very good history (on a scale of 1,000 years) of treating Jews well. Jewish culture has been keeping track of things and writing it down for, say, 5,000 years (no other continuous narrative of a culture comes even close). So as a culture, they remember things we Christians would rather forget.
That said, what seems to me a modern tendency by American Jews to obsess on Christians as the source of their misery (partly true historically) is leading them to support the biggest anti-semitic groups in America today, American blacks and the left in general. For reasons I don’t understand, totalitarians of every stripe end up anti-semetic. And American Jews (at least the Reform Jews) are missing what is going on in that regard completely.
They accuse others of "hate", whereas it is Leftists who are full of hate.
They accuse others of prejudice, whereas it is Leftists who are suffused with prejudice.
They accuse others of intolerance; yet it is Leftists who are intolerant.
They accuse others of having closed minds; yet it is Leftists whose minds are closed.
They accuse others of greed, whereas it is Leftists who are greedy and money-grubbing.
They accuse other of of voter fraud, whereas it is Leftists who commit voter fraud.
They're full of this. It's part of their utter immorality.
exactly..also as Rush has stated they are lib’s first jews second.
Exactly.. in light of their “bizarro moralality” conservatism is those things to anarchy... They live in a Bizarro world!
You have to read “The 5000 Year Leap” it’s alabout this.
Great link! thanks!
Unfortunately Foxman is an anti-conservative and an anti-Christian bigot. He’s no credit to the ADL.
Pamela Geller commented on the destructive comments and actions of ADL's Foxman, but Conservative columnist, Don Feder, tried to answer the question of my tribe's Liberalism, too: Jews occupy front-row pew in church of Liberalism
My dad has said for years that Reform (not Reformed BTY)Jews are the Democrat Party with religious holidays.
I haven’t read it yet, but I have it on my list of things to do:
Why Are Jews Liberals?
a book By NORMAN PODHORETZ
“Mr. Podhoretz was the editor of Commentary from 1960 to 1995. His latest book, “Why Are Jews Liberals?” is just out from Doubleday. “
And then, there’s this article with the same title:

A close friend of mine is Jewish and a political conservative. He is just as mystified as anyone about how the Jews align themselves with people (liberals) who are anti-semitic and very anti-Israel, and who also stand for all of the immorality that is so contrary to the teachings of the Jewish Law.
And yet, they vote for the party that is against each of these issues. Doesn't make any sense, but they do. Why? Who knows!
taking out of context a reply that Rush gave to a caller's question about why the majority of Jews are liberalAnd what was it that happened to Air America, again?
"I have previously posted that I have never understood the high percentage of Jews in America that vote Democrat, even when the leaders of the Democrats advocate anti-Israel policies....."I recently responded to a question like that on this thread, at post 122. It is a question that gets asked often on FREE REPUBLIC, and subsequently answered often.

I agree. It’s sad when a son of Abraham goes full bore against Almighty God and the promises made to Israel to serve the devil. That is not a crazy statement.. it the truth. All of God’s promises and hope for world peace is found in the Children of Abraham. One day coming up soon The Messiah will reign from Jerusalem and Israel will be the chief nation of the world.
True.. alot of liberal “social gospel “christians” also!
