“I was a big Obama supporter. I had a fundraiser in my home, gave money to his campaign. I really believed in him and believed in what he stood for. When he gave the speech about the ‘67 borders, it was nothing that had come up in his campaign originally. That really changed my mind about him. When he had the prime minister of Israel, [Benjamin] Netanyahu, to the White House…he was disrespectful to him to the point that I’d never seen.”
— Disillusioned Obama voter Michael Goldstein, in an ad by the Republican Jewish Coalition
“In his second term we’re going to see the real Barack Obama… He’s going to place Israel in a position where they’re in danger.”
The far left Washington Post reported:
The Republican Jewish Coalition is launching a $6.5 million campaign to convince Jewish voters — among the most loyal segments of the Democratic coalition — that it is okay to vote against President Obama because of his stand on Israel and the Israeli-Palestinian issue. The campaign is aimed at key Jewish areas in Ohio, Pennsylvania and Florida, where the RNC hopes to swing just enough votes to tip those states in Mitt Romney’s electoral vote column.
RJC Executive Director Matt Brooks told us that the ad push will be accompanied by a Web site, www.mybuyersremorse.com, in which people can upload videos expressing their own thoughts on Obama and Israel. Brooks said the remarks by Goldstein were edited down from a 25-minute conversation.
This doesn’t bode well for Democrats.
Even the Jewish vote is waking up to Obama’s destruction.
Thanks, there are a lot of posts like the one you pointed out.
It shows that the pulick skool mentality has infected a lot of people who just don’t care what they look like, have no care that they come across looking like 3rd graders, nor have any interest in bettering themselves.
It looks like a DU post.
Mannerisms are one thing (as in the post above), but literacy is another. There was a thread today with the word in the title: “say’s”!
Agree with both of you. That Kubrick film, The Shining, is so scary - dark forces & history repeating itself in a murderous terrorizing way - yet this is reality and way more obvious (thanks to our instant 24/7 global news cycle) and immeasurably worse! I grieve for the people who don’t see/don’t want to see what is going on... again.
Many years ago, I made a choice about what kind of Jew I would be - and that is an *American* Jew, who will never willingly walk into a gas chamber.
I, too, lost all my European family in the Holocaust.
Never again.
I’m an American.
i made a simple comment in support of this link. i’m not sure where the bitterness comes from. i’ve been on here for a number of years and i don’t post that much. i was very glad to see the tide turning, while slowly, of the usually liberal jewish vote potentially moving just a bit. the du comment was comical.
i did go to public school in texas. i also have a couple of post graduatte degrees, so perhaps you shouldn’t be in such a rush to judgement simply of the way i type. i do it for pretty much everything i do. it ain’t personal dude.
LOL! Your post stands as evidence of everything I said in #21.
If you’d like to be on or off, please FR mail me.

Joy Behar is not Jewish, and I cannot tell you how happy that fact makes me.
“I’ll be very surprised if the percentages change by over 10%.”
Which would flip Florida, Ohio, and PA.
Too bad he says "I'm a lifelong Democrat," rather than "I was a lifelong Democrat.". Hope he's in the process of detoxification from his lifelong addiction.
Hopefully the RJC can use a clip from Romney's speech in Jerusalem yesterday, with the Western Wall as a perfect backdrop, in the ads to follow.
No, not enough of change to flip any of them based on 2008 vote totals.
However, there remains a small but real possibility that a 10% move in the Jewish electorate (which practically amounts to a closing of the gap by 20% of the total Jewish vote when you take away 10% from Zero and add 10% to the GOP) could be decisive in any of those states. That depends on how other voting patterns may swing, including changes the composition of the whole electorate in 2012 as compared to 2008.
My thoughts precisely. I would go so far as to say your immortal soul is in danger if you do not fight this fight, or even alow yourself to become distracted from it.
Better things may be happening here.
