She will probably find herself included in a growing number of Jewish conservatives in America as they finally wake up to the fact that the left is not on their side.

That's me, right here! Jewish, ex-lefty---woke up big time after 9/11. This young woman is coming along. She's just beginning to figure it out, but I think she's on the right path. It's the same one I was on and I ended up here!

Well, welcome aboard! Paul experienced a radical conversion- the scales fell from his eyes. But I know, realistically, that everyone will not experience a similar conversion. With some people, they want to believe in liberalism so badly it takes a literal mountain of evidence to convince them. Some people are rational enough that it can simply be a key sentence dropped on them by a friend- they will ponder that phrase and its ramifications over time and arrive at the proper conclusions.

I would imagine some people, like this young woman, who are passionate and want to be involved in a "struggle for the truth" are doing just that- struggling to find the truth. It may take more such incidents with her, but I don't think she will ever be able to reconcile what has happened to her with liberalism- there's too much anti-Jewishness in leftist rhetoric nowadays. Just look at one of the heroes of liberalism- Cynthia McKinney. She and her father both voted out of office. It will take more time, but we are headed in the right direction regarding Jews.
