Another Take On Why Jews Vote Democrat (Evan Sayet)
EvanSayet.com ^ | 7-18-2014 | Evan Sayet

Posted on 07/21/2014 6:10:57 AM PDT by servo1969

American Jews overwhelmingly tend to vote Democrat for one simple reason: they see the choice as being between 1) the Democrats and their belief in nothing versus 2) the Republicans and their beliefs based on their Christian faith and heritage.

Given that choice, then, rather than side with people of faith – which they see as a different and potentially antagonistic belief system – they feel safer in the party that is devoid of any values or convictions.

The “thinking” behind this is that, if people believe in things then they might fight for those things. They might even commit atrocities in their name. Only those who believe in nothing have nothing to kill or fight for. If everyone just believed in nothing, the “thinking” goes: then the Jews would be safe, for if one doesn’t believe in anything then they can’t believe the Jews are bad.

These people believe that it is beliefs and not what was believed that led to the Holocaust and to all of the other world’s atrocities. It’s why the Modern Liberal’s Blueprint for Utopia as rendered by John Lennon sought a world without countries, religions or any other values or convictions (just all the people living for “today.”)

So American Jews have forgotten who liberated the concentration camps ?

Maybe each one needs to take a little trip over to the Allied cemeteries and see how “evil” those buried under crosses are

Yeah, I’d like to know if there is a difference between how urban living Jews vote compared to those that live in rural areas. The problem would probably be finding enough Jews living in rural areas.

Do they vote for the Dems or vote against conservative Republicans?

It’s become the standard way of discourse, unfortunately. Happens out here too.

Whatever happened to good old-fashioned reason, logic, and rational conversation...?

Bah...

Just say “No” to whatever they’re demanding ... then get out of the way REAL quick.

During the 1930’s the democrats led by FDR placed Jews in high government offices. Dewey type republicans tended to be antisemitic. It’s time for the Republican party to to reach out to conservative Jews, Blacks, Hispanics and other groups. We need to rebuild a Reagan coalition and take back this country from the nihilistic godless progressives!

OK, this guy is an idiot. This Jew/Democrat Phenomenon is hardly a religious war between Rome and the SBC, and Jerusalem.

Governmental choice really boils down to two basic points of view:
(1)Left: The Government's purpose is to "help people."
(2)Right: The Government's purpose is stay out of the way so that people can help themselves.

Jews are obligated by their faith to help people. If the government "helps people," it is therefore fulfilling The Jewish Social Obligation, (as amplified by Jesus!) and must therefore be righteous. If I support the sort of government that "helps people," I am therefore also righteous. If I am a non-religious Jew (or formerly from a Christian perspective), this also of course, has the added attraction of fulfilling a religious obligation for me ... by political proxy. For non-religious people of all backgrounds, The State is their righteous church, and/or the environment, and/or animal rights, and/or permaculture, and/or climate change ... vegetarianism, gun control, etc. ad nauseam.

The incredible smarmy self-righteousness of the Left, whether Jewish or not, is also very much a club. If I and my friends are righteous, perhaps you are not. I must be in charge of you, because, if you do not agree with me, you are obviously wrong and may do harm to yourself and the rest of us.

God says so. Or, God being absent here, The State.

After all, in Christian Europe it was the "Church" that ran the Social Welfare Establishment, not the state. In states run by Sharia Law, they would like to claim the same thing! If one disagreed with the Church Establishment, one could be in a heap'o'trouble. So now, if you disagree with the righteous religion of the State Establishment, you are also in a heap'o'trouble.

I've met Evan. He is a very impressive and impassioned speaker.

From the article:

It’s not a coincidence that the first Judeo-Christian nation in all of human history is also the place that has provided the Jews with the most welcoming, free and safe existence since the original land of Israel. Nor is it surprising that the Europe the Democrats seek to emulate was not only the home of Nazism and Communism but today is seeing a resurgence of Jew-hatred.

Exactly the question I’m (this is Evan) working on for my next piece. There lines in america are far less rich/poor, far less red/blue states, and far more along the lines of City/Country and professions where people work with their hands versus where they work with their mouths (the rhetoric industries like academia, journalism, entertainment, psychology, etc.)

Orthodox Jews, concentrated in the northeastern states, vote about 2 to 1 for Conservatives and Republicans.

However, from memory, Orthodox Jews only make up about 10% of American Jews.

Also, Orthodox Jews are not a perfect political fit with American Conservatism.

They use public welfare programs at a higher than average rate in America and Israel.

And, at least in Israel, most Orthodox Jews hold the very controversial point of view that they should not be required to join the military.

Sadly, by all evidence, Hitler was one of my fellow Catholics, at least nominally.

In practice? Not so much.

Conservative Jewish tend to be Zionist and Republican.

Not nearly so much as Orthodox, of course.

There is some truth to that.

My take on Jewish people is that they are, on the average, smarter and more successful than the average. But they do cling to their victim-hood much too tightly. But then again they certainly have some pretty valid historical reasons for doing so.

“I think a lot more of that has to do with the fact that many influential Jews - doctors, lawyers, businessmen, entertainers - benefit financially from their association with Govco.”

So they are more concerned about their wallets than in doing what’s right for their country? Sounds just like the DemoRATs.
