Easy, they’re Jino’s. Jews in name only. They don’t worship God, and don’t care about Israel.

Simplistic, jingoistic, and false

There are a few very broad brushes here. Believe it or not, there are Conservative Jews as well.

I agree with you, there are many conservative Jews. Even though I disagree with Shapiro in a few points (his irritation of Palin for one); I still consider him a conservative; don't you?

Also, as in my first post, you could replace the word Jew for anyone who adheres to a socialistic philosophy to what Shapiro states in his YouTube presentation. This is what I tried to emphasize from the beginning, as you say (and do see myself), the broad brushes began to appear. I'm now kind of sorry that I posted Shapiro's presentation because of them.

The only way to describe these American Jews is “DUMB & STUPID”. They totally distrust the CHRISTIANS, especially the “TEA PARTY” Christians,. Truth be told, these are the most fervent backers of Israel and the Jews, out side of that country. If they had any sense at all, they’d be forming a coalition with them. But, as they say, STUPID IS WHAT STUPID DOES.

Other than in insulting them, what else makes you fervent with respect to the Jews ?

Sort of like “secular Jews”, who aren’t really Jewish but who hide behind the skirts of lovely, conservative, Jewish women. IMHO

Do you mean like political Christians who aren’t really Christian but who hide behind the skirts of lovely, conservative, Gentile women ?

Because they are Jews in name only..they could care less about Israel’s existence(Most of them can’t locate Israel on a map) as long as they can still get their abortions(Which for many Jewish liberal women is their #1 priority) they will continue to vote Democrat..with liberal Jews, its all about social issues, Israel could disappear tomorrow and they wouldn’t shed a tear

False; your sales pitch could use some help

“They love socialism more than they love Israel.”
____

Socialism runs rampant in Israel. Always has. It’s a “all for one and one for all” mentality.

Sometimes I think the Jews never got the ancient nomadic character out of their souls. One of the things they like about socialism is the internationalism it represents.

I guess the whole idea of Israel, is that Jews can from anywhere on the globe to be welcomed into a homeland. Maybe that brings with it a lot of varied political baggage.

It’s too bad that the Morning Answer has really turned me off when it began with a fair amount of promise.

No, it isn’t because of where they live.

Population density drives leftism. The relationship is not exactly linear, but the higher the density, the greater the percentage of leftist voters. Of course there are many exceptions, but that is generally how it works everywhere on Earth. The Jews could not own land in many host countries so traditionally were city renters. I don't think there's a large apartment rental building anywhere in America that does not vote majority Democrat. Because of where Democrats live, one nuke attack and it's all over for the Democrat party.

No it doesn’t, Jews vote, and always have voted liberal, because they are liberal, not because of their European roots, or because they live in Houston.

Absolutely!!!

(although the term “Secular Christian” doesn’t exist yet.)

IMHO

Consider me turned off by Shapiro as well; it will be very difficult to listen to him from here on end, even if he is right at times. Although Elisha Krauss has, so far to my knowledge, been very good. Now that you have established yourself as a credible source, what are your thoughts on her?

It's the population density that causes them to be majority libtards. That's true of city Asian-Americans and everybody else that lives mostly in concrete and steel communes.

She’s not very articulate. Her laugh is becoming annoying.

Nothing against her, she is just not very good on radio.

Nor is Whitman. He takes five sentences to say what can be said in one.

I think Whitman dominates the show too much and the things he says are vapid and usually low information talking points.

A similar thing happened with the Medved show. About a year and a half ago when someone mentioned Ted Cruz, Medved snapped, “he’s an idiot”.

The degree of contempt on his part for Tea Party and Cruz hadn’t been so clear before I heard that. It really changed how I hear the show.

This is all unfortunate to my mind as I liked Morning Answer and Medved prior to these incidences of contempt.

I still listen because there is not much alternative, but I usually will turn it off after a while out of annoyance.

Except that you are wrong, I am from a big city, many of us are, Evangelicals live in big cities, lots of conservatives do, and it does not explain 150 years and more, of Jewish voting.

Care to explain the 1920 Jewish vote, or 1980, or why other groups that are not liberal can be big city people without voting liberal, or why some people seek to move to liberal centers, or away from them, or why Austin is so much more liberal than Houston?

According to you, people don’t have politics, they are just reacting to population density.

The Jews in my family that vote Democrat vote because of social issues, NOT because of Israel..Israel is at the bottom of their list..my Mom’s friends are all Jewish, could care less about Israel, with them their #1 priority is abortion “Rights” trust me..sitting around with 60 yr old women screaming about how Republicans want to take away their right to an abortion is hilarious because what abortion are they having..yet they still vote Democrat for that very reason

It's an oversimplification but in general that is how it works, not only throughout the world but throughout history. How many evangelical big cities didn't vote for Obama? Not the majority of them. Increasing density along with increasing libtardism is evidence of causation and not just coincidence. Yes, there are many exceptions with obvious reasons. Seeing the relationship though is useful for doing something about it. The 'crat leadership has been well aware of it for some time and have been doing everything they can to herd us into the big cities, going so far as to open the immigrant flood gates into the cities from third world countries.

Forcing people into close quarters creates support for an excessively-regulated society.
