But, each individual is responsible for their own actions. No person can gain absolution for another. Despite what modern lefties say, women had a lot of rights under Jewish law - specifically in the marriage and sexual arena.

The whole idea of Bar Mitzva is that the 13 year old is now responsible for his own actions. If he sins, the father no longer bears the burden of those sins. At Bar Mitzva the father says: thank God for releasing me from burden of this son’s sins.

I’m sure you noticed that being a lefty means being demanding that some group out there is responsible. It never is an issue of taking personal responsibility. That is sort of the opposite the Jewish tradition, where each individual is first of all responsible for himself, then for his place within the community.

By the way, I had a comment giving my theory for why Jews go left, but it’s been caught… sigh. (Boy it’s getting old.)

Like most people who have escaped communism, regardless of their religion of origin - they know the real thing and they hate it!!

If the falsely lionized “Man From Plains” can’t help himself and goes on a bitter, angry rant, won’t that turn off even more people than just the Jews (i.e., the committed, life-long party liberals in their 50s, 60s and 70s who STILL haven’t faced the fact that their party is now controlled by less-than-benign socialists and anti-American Al-Qaeda apologists)?

That might be interesting to see.

when a Jew abandons the traditions of the Jewish religion… he finds a new faith - and for 100 years now that faith has been left leaning…

Ahem.

would they be considered “self-loathing” by libtard standards?

No of course not! Here’s the thing about Jews, it’s in our blood to believe in religion. We can’t be non believers - just doesn’t work. I guess it has something to do with being the chosen people.

So when a Jew abandons the traditions of the Jewish religion, he does not become a non believer - he finds a new faith - and for 100 years now that faith has been left leaning philosophies, from Communism (Trotsky, Marx anyone?) Socialism and now good old American lefty politics.

So of course they aren’t self loathing, they are proud adherents of their new religion.

Whereas your garden variety evangelical reads his Bible. Not having grown up in Europe - where antisemitism is in mothers milk, decides that the Jews are good guys - even if they haven’t accepted Jesus. So they pray for Israel, go visit in hard times and usually are quite thrilled to meet real Jews, not the lefty liberal kind

Yet many evangelicals truly love Israel more than lefty Jews.

I even heard a comment to that effect on Law & Order last night.

With my European parentage, one of whom survived World War II in Greece, I feel closer to Israel and her people than most Americans my age. I have personally talked to Holocaust survivors and friends of my mother who also survived the war in order to better understand life and its challenges. That to me is “the greatest generation.”

So yes, this is one meshugana goy who is not ashamed to be pro-Israel and anti-Islamofascist. I have no tolerance for others who wish to try to pick up where the Nazis left off.

In six paragraphs denigrating Cantor, they rack up five points in a game of Pin the Tail on the Hebe.

I am glad Carter will be there, not only will a few more Jews stay away. (I’m beyond trying to save my people- and to think we are considered so bright and intelligent - here’s proof we’re not)

This will also alienate many of the evangelicals that Obama is trying to court. Once again, those lefty Jews hate the fact that they love Israel. Yet many evangelicals truly love Israel more than lefty Jews.

I love meeting and talking to these people on flights to Israel - if only the Jews were so supportive of Israel!

“We… make sure we have an exciting and unified convention,” Strand said. “Our delegate whips, along with the Obama delegate whips, are a part of a team that will be on the floor of the convention to make sure delegates have everything they need, whether that’s answering questions or passing out signs…”

Learn the lingo, peasants. In our brave new world of progress and unity, the whip doesn’t keep you it line, it makes sure you have everything you need. And the government censor will be making sure you have everything you need. And the tax man doesn’t take your money, he makes sure you have everything you need. And that man herding you into a boxcar isn’t sending you to a gas chamber, he’s making sure you have everything you need.

Then he will lard Obama with messianic jelly and cream cheese.

When it is over, he will sit alone watching the floor show.

His place in the convention and history will be marked by the tepid applause and the loud murmuring that will drift through the audio while he is speaking.

Cancel the Olympics, create a misery index, fumble the loss of an embassy, lecture the world, let inflation eat you alive. Those are the actions of a real president.

He is skinnier and less wooden than Al Gore, so at least he has that going for him.

I am beginning to suspect that the left, Obama included, really believe this. And I wonder if, please God let it be so, Jimmy Carter isn’t being brought on to speak about the energy crisis?!

Obama really is the second coming… of Carter.
