Waxman: Jews vote Republican ‘to protect their wealth’
The Daily Caller ^ | Sept. 15, 2011 | Steven Nelson

Democrats working to explain the loss of a ‘safe’ congressional seat in this week’s special election to replace disgraced New York Rep. Anthony Weiner have come up with some startling conclusions.

California Democratic Rep. Henry Waxman, a prominent Jewish congressman, explained that some Jews are selecting not to vote for Democrats because “they want to protect their wealth, which is why a lot of well-off voters vote for Republicans.”

One of the more common narratives emerging after the election in New York’s 9th Congressional District is that the district’s large Jewish population was alienated by President Obama’s policies on Israel, swinging the heavily Democratic district to Republican Bob Turner.

Waxman did acknowledge the influence of Obama’s Israel policy, telling The Hill, “There are Jews who are trending toward the Republican Party, some of it because of their misunderstanding of Obama’s policies in the Middle East.”

O-o-o-kay. Had Waxman himself not been Jewish, there would have been grounds to call him something else.

If what he says is true, then the Republican Party would be wise to roll out a big welcome mat.

>> “they want to protect their wealth”

Hey, at least he’s admitting that it IS *THEIR* wealth.

That’s more of a conservative thought than *most* demon’rats will allow.

Wow. Waxman will regret this and I can’t stop laughing. Somebody needs to mail him a copy of Identity Politics for Dumbasses.

Libs love it when people vote their “self-interest” when that self-interest means more government handouts. Yet, they resent it when “self-interest” means people being wanting to keep their own money.

Can you imagine the uproar if someone had said that blacks vote for the democrat to protect their welfare benefits?

Shame on Waxman!
