And sadly, American Jews idolize FDR, who refused to let millions of Jews emigrate to the U.S., leaving them to die in Nazi concentration camps, in spite of evidence that the Nazis were planning to kill them.
there are many of us who "get it" and will be voting GWB. i notice that more and more Jews are coming "out of the closet" and admitting they are Repubs. the times they are a-changin'. who knows, maybe Ed Koch will be right and Jews may be the margin of victory for Bush!!! on to victory!
Roosevelt favored letting more Jews into the U.S., but Southern Democrat congressmen were completely opposed.
That may be so, but there is another point. Whatever you may think of him, in the days of Franklin Delano Roosevelt "liberalism" meant something very different than what it does now. It was the days of the dust bowl, the "Okies," the redneck left (I know, a contradiction in terms nowadays), and the Tennessee Valley Authority, and the Southern white evangelical vote was overwhelmingly Democratic as well. FDR was president of the United States for twelve years and there was not one single legal abortion or homosexual "marriage" during all that time. And even though there was much political radicalism in the "red decade" of the Thirties, there simply were no idiotic crusades against eating meat or using gender-specific pronouns or "hate speech."
Loyalty to a man who died almost sixty years ago simply does not explain remaining loyal to an ideology that has gotten goofier and goofier every year since 1960. It seems that the label is more important than the contents it describes, since loyalty to post-modernist liberalism is justified as fealty to Franklin Delano Roosevelt.
Very true statemnt about FDR....LIBERAL American Jews(just like Liberal American Catholics,Protestants whatever) are a pain in the American Body Politic...the difference is since they are one of this country's most important,wealthy and influential groups they have that much more power to do damage per capita than the typical liberal....
