I'm not going to bother to cut and past your post, so if you can't stay with me, you'll have to scroll back...
I'm not sure where the "highest concentration of Jews in the nation" is, but I grew up in Brooklyn, so I am not basing my observation on a handful of acquaintenences. I submit to you, that if you live in a very Jewish community, you are most likely only coming into contact with the most liberal Jews. Note: I am not looking to criticize Jews in general. I am a big fan of Isrealis. American Jews, unfortunately, leave a lot to be desired politically. I see that you have made a big committment in you life to the Jewish culture. I cmmend you on that. But drawing parallels between the feelings of Jews in general, and those of Joe Lieberman ran is faulty logic. I can't tell you how many conservative Irish Catholics I know who voted for Jack Kennedy. Doesn't prove that they agreed with his views. The fact that NY Jews voted for Hillary Clinton shows that they don't give a shit about Isreal.

"...that if you live in a very Jewish community, you are most likely only coming into contact with the most liberal Jews..."
I live a stone's throw away from Boca Raton.
Now, are you going to substantiate anything?
"But drawing parallels between the feelings of Jews in general, and those of Joe Lieberman ran is faulty logic."
Faulty logic?
You claim that most Jews oppose the war, you say that they do so because they are Liberals, and vote Liberal. So then, your argument is that Jews follow a ceratin paterrn in thinking because they are Jewish.
I show you the first ever Jewish candidate for the presidency, a Liberal, that sustains your argument. Then I point out that this Jew, who received the overwhelming majority of the Jewish vote in his run with Gore, is pro-war.
And now you're spinning out of control in an attempt at proving your own argument wrong.
