So “mom-mom” and “pop-pop” are too old and senile to be able to choose their own candidate?
Wexler was going to the condos in Broward & Palm Beach to shill for Obama. Half the crowd would boo him. If Obama gets 57% of the Jewish vote versus 77% for Kerry then Barry has big problems. We beat Kerry by +5 in 2004. I think Barry gets 50% of the vote and maybe less. Joe Lieberman is working this crowd for McCain.
Also don’t forget the PUMAs. I have not seen the FL ballot yet. Does it say Barrack Hussein Obama? Gramps going to punch the ticket for some guy named Hussein?
The grandkid (brat) said gramps “had a hard time getting his head around voting for a black man.” No sonny boy gramps may have a problem getting his head around voting for a stooge closely connected to Hamas. The grandchildren are morons. I hope Jewish children in Israel have more common sense. Conseravtive and Orthodox Jews “get it” about Obama. They are strong for McCain as are American Jews living in Israel.
The Times of London is printing such garbage.
Ignore the polls. Volunteer and donate.
Sad to have to manipulate your elderly grandparents or parents to achieve an electoral victory. WHO the HECK does that kind of thing??? It’s SICK!
HAHAHAHA.. Yea, because Jewish Grandmas and Grandpas are so well known for listening to lectures from their grandkids... BWHAHAHAHAHAHAHA...
Fauxbama will not defend Israel, has been caught taking insane amounts of money from folks involved with terrorism, one group of brothers gave him 30k each in blatant violation of election law from I believe the palestinian territories...
IF you are Jewish and you vote for Fauxbama, you truly should be having your head examined.
The idea that any person who is Jewish or a supporter of Isreal would vote for Barack Obama is a mystery on par with the existence of the Higgs Boson.
Isn't that what a bunch of them have been doing already?
What happen? Why have they gone for Obama?
All Obama knows is Marxist's, Muslims,& terrorists. Does his attachment to Farrakhan mean anything? Did the PLO pay for his Harvard education?
It's not about skin color. If Jews vote Obama, they deserve what they get. A few Jews here and there, a few Hillary Democrats, and some Hockey moms and McCain could win. They vote for Obama, for what? They hate Bush? He's not running. Bush derangement syndrome.
Well, if the little bastard can convince his jewish grandparents,,, to vote for a Muslim surnamed man, endorsed by Akmenidjad (sp?,,, who cares!) He should go into sales,,, high end real estate, or maybe very expensive machinery products.
Well, Sarah Silverman for starters. Check out her "Great Schlep" video:
Sarah Silverman and The Great Schlep
**WARNING: This video contains MANY expletives and graphic content.**
How sweet convince the old folks to let Obama preside over the destruction of Israel, a second Holocaust,and policies favorable to those who want to cut their throats.
You can’t make up how stupid and immoral huge chunks of our population have become.
Not exactly sure what happened to them, but the trend in Florida according to the polling data cited shows that they are an abnormality. Obama is having a hardier time sealing the deal with Jews than Kerry did. That’s not good.
When did they switch from R to D? Clinton? Bush? That’d be interesting to know.
Where did you read Cali is in play?
You know what’s interesting though — I live in Simi Valley (trends conservative) and all of the Yes on 8 lawn signs are out this weekend (must’ve been delivered at the same time).
I kid you not — probably 20% of the people in my neighborhood have one out.
Prop 8 may bring a LOT of conservatives out to vote this year in Cali.
But even then, I don’t think it can balance out the sheer number of liberals and illegals in San Fran and Los Angeles.

Immigration Update
Liz Kaplan,
20052006 RAC Legislative Assistant
*(Religious Action Center of Reform Judaism)
Immigration reform has risen to the top of the national agenda in recent months as the U.S. wrestles with such issues as backlogs in family-based immigration, cuts in social services to immigrants, an increasing number of deaths at the U.S.-Mexico border and the challenge of 8 to 12 million undocumented residents in the U.S. living in the shadows of society. The Reform Movement is among the many business, labor, immigrant-rights and religious groups that support comprehensive immigration reform.A comprehensive solution to our nations immigration problems should include: measures to reduce the family-based visa backlog, enhanced border security and interior enforcement, worker protections, and a program of earned legalization. It is unrealistic to detain and deport millions of undocumented individuals. Instead, a carefully regulated system of earned legalization would benefit our economy and enhance cooperation with law enforcement by eliminating the fear of deportation. After months of negotiation and compromise, there are competing bills in Congress, some in line with the basic principles above and others reflecting a much harsher, enforcement-only approach to immigration reform.Much work has been done during the past year to increase grassroots support for fair and generous immigration policy, particularly by members of the Jewish community, but much more needs to be done. Consider organizing a comprehensive immigration reform letter-writing campaign to your Senators and Representatives, or hosting a forum at your congregation to discuss how this issue impacts your community. Stay tuned to www.rac.org for more legislative updates and ways to get involved on this and other issues.
