This Israeli considers her correct.
But I do agree it is not constructive to state this (even though it is obviously true). Her statements will be twisted around and make her look stupid.
The Truth will make you free.
Yup.
Being right just isn’t enough in the modern world.
Michele Bachmann is a 100% Tea Party conservative who is not afraid to speak her mind. She spoke well. She will never cower before the disgusting New York media who are becoming more and more irrelevant as they lose readers and viewers year over year.
Americans are very supportive of Tea Party conservatives who ‘make the grade’, e.g. Ted Cruz versus those who don’t, e.g. Stockman. It’s a political movement that is growing. The twisters and liars in NY are not growing, they are in decline.
It’s the same twist on a different issue.
Example:
Joe: We want a conservative presidential candidate.
Tom: Yeah, like Sarah Palin!
Joe: No, they will ridicule her and make fun of her.
But see...”they” will do that with EVERY conservative candidate. And then the same people wonder why they end up with a RINO.
Mincing around the issue does even less to help.
Still, you’re right. All I can say is that if Jews want to play stupid games, they’re going to win stupid prizes.
Again.
The truth is the truth. If we cannot speak it freely then we’re screwed anyway.
You are correct, Reform Jews ( of which I am close too ) will brand her as a tea-party nut etc etc.
IMHO she would have been better off to have been invited to a Reform Temple for services and have an open forum with the members in an Oneg afterwards, and explain her position and not condemn ( which is in a way what she did ) but make a case like Lady Thatcher did as to how Israel is being treated by Obama as to build the bridge of support with the Reform Community rather than burn one.
I am not impressed, I have personally spent a great deal of time and making my case without rancor to win support with the Reform Community as to allow them to have an "ah-ha moment" on their own, and she just blew it. Thanks a lot MB....
What is wrong with calling a capo a capo?
