He seems more fit for a church than politics, although the same could be argued for Obamas method of speaking. I did find it shameful that he was ignored almost completely in the campaign and the debates. He actually had to interrupt the debate and say "When do I get to speak?" and I thought "You go man!"

I voted for Alan in the primary. Of course, I know of him from Baltimore.

Ron Klein is a Jew Im almost certain. The writer probably is. Politico has a(n amusing) tendency to "have the Jew" write up all the Israel articles. And generally they are a good bit critical of Israel. Nowhere near AP though. However, they also have plenty of guest commentators that are at various places on both sides and there are plenty of right slanted articles. The odd thing is that the readership is like 55-35-10 C-L-I and they still appear to have a leftish slant.

I was actually just arguing with my friend who still is defending Islam despite claiming to not be a Muslim about this. She said the Quran has not changed since it was written down and that no other text is claimed to be like this. I said that is impossible and that Jews have the same claim.

I think you understand my point that we cant just rely on divine right. The Queen of the UK does that and look at her power.

As soon as I saw your name in my email box, I knew this was coming. Im not laughed at by the half of the country we need to support us though.

I see both his opponent and tthe writer (a nasty, slanted article) have Jewish (or German) names.

The cute part is that he quoted from last Shabbat's reading.

Politics changes. Look at the Left and world opinion. The Torah does not.

Copies of the Torah generally come with Rashi's commentary. The very first comment he makes is on the right of the Jews to Israel.

Although I think the other stuff is also important, today.

"Do you really think it wise to alienate someone who has found other reasons to support Israel?"

This is what I have been telling you, regarding endorsements by people you disagree with politically.

That inner emotional paramecium in you has come to the fore again!
