I doubt that. I suppose that someone has, previously, attempted to make sense of this way of thinking. I don’t have the patience for it and it’s not critical to my survival.

Amazing, it's a real site, http://www.yiddishcursesforrepublicanjews.com but the "curses", rather amateurish, are all in English. The site name is a fraud. Yiddish is, in fact, a language. With actual words. Not an English language comedy genre.

Not surprising, as The Jewish Week

notes, it's actually an Obama fundraising site.

Ben Abramowitz and Rachel Shukert

should know better than to mock a language which may not have been spoken by anyone in their family, but which was by many Jewish immigrants to this nation. Even for money for Obama.

And kudus to the Obama campaign, a really class act.

What is this? Appeasement after the Democrats threw Israel under the bus?

Let the maniacs outlaw the morning-after pill the day before your daughter gets home from the NFTY convention

I also notice the liberals always try to frame abortion in the least damaging way, even as their policies try to promote abortion in the most expansive way. For example, why did the author not use this sentence instead:

"Let the maniacs outlaw the use of scissors to plunge a hole into the skull of the partially born unloved infant 8 to 9 months after your daughter gets home from the NFTY convention"

Or...

"Let the maniacs outlaw killing your granddaughter in the womb months after your daughter gets home from the NFTY convention"

Or..."Let the maniacs outlaw killing your gift from God the day before your daughter gets home from the NFTY convention"

Or..."Let the maniacs outlaw the murder of the baby an infertile couple desperately wanted ..."

Or ... "Let the maniacs stop the murder of the very person God sent to develop the cure for pancreatic cancer..."

Kudus are a genus of African antelope with long curly antlers ... May a whole herd of kudus stampede the DNC.

It wasn’t the pubs who booed calling Jerusalem the capital of Israel.

This old broad, who wrote this, doesn't care about that. The ultra-liberal, American Jews don't care about Israel. I'd hate to be in her shoes on Judgment Day.

"So, it’s ok with you then?"

Of course it's not "ok" with me, I don't know where you got that crazy idea. I just pointed out that it WAS ok with many of the Jews of the time.

Are you helping? I’m not a Bible scholar, but even I know that what you are arguing is out of context. If you’re for killing babies, then go ahead and say so. If you’re against killing babies, then why bring that up out of context? Who do you serve?

No....I don’t suppose that....I know that. Who do you serve? There are people who come on this site to spread dissension. The Democrats are for killing babies. My understanding is that the Jews don’t condone the killing of babies. Why in the world would you then say that well, some Jews were OK with it? It is sophistry and beneficial only to the party that thinks it’s OK to kill babies.

I’ll try a few Yiddish style curses directed at Obama-supporting liberal Jews.

“May Obama become your good friend, and appoint you ambassador to the Taliban.”

“May your have a full health benefits and retirement paid for by the government, in Gitmo, with a shared cell, no less.”

“May all your children become doctors, then drop out to become skinheads, leaving you to pay their tuition.”

Out of context? Copying from the dems now? You are correct - you are no bible scholar. It was perfectly in context. You asked how God and Jews felt about the people who were killing their babies, as if God and the Jews were on one side and the baby killers (Cannanites) were on the other. I pointed out that the Jews were on the baby killers’ side because they were doing the same thing, even worse during the reign of Manasseh. The bible clearly points out that during the reign of Mannasseh Judah was more evil than the Cannanites whom God sent Joshua to wipe out for their wickedness. Point, game and match.

To Ms. Shukert on you and your shlemazel husband I wish my favorite Yiddish curse I learned from my father:

All your teeth should fall out except one for a toothache!

You have dreck for brains and you can’t find your tuches with both hands.
