The diference between a Liberal Jew and moderate/conservative Jewish person is like the difference between day and night.......

Most Liberal Jewish people don't give a damn on Israel , G-d or the Torah...................

I am amazed to find that there is anyone left on the Right who will speak bluntly about the Jewish liberal hatred of Christians and Christianity.

To her credit, Decter expresses such blunt criticism, while Ralph Reed, formerly of the Christian Coalition, goes on frenetically apologizing to the Anti-Defamation League for what may be the American Baptist role in the Holocaust and Spanish Inquisition. If only Christians could overcome their self-inflicted spasms of guilt, they might write lines like these: "It was no secret that some significant part in the emptying of the [moral-religious] public square had been played by Jewish liberals. It was understandable to me why this was so, because their long history had left many Jews with an atavistic fear of Christian authority ? so the more public life could be kept strictly secular the safer they felt. But understand it or not, I believed that the religion-free public condition to which they had made such a vital contribution had left American society, and particularly American culture, vulnerable to pernicious influences."

It is not anti-Semitism.

It is absolutely anti-Semitism.

You are only deluding yourself.

Do you pray ?

Richard Nixon was an outspoken sort. I think this is a lot to do about nothing. Sure, the liberals and the Tom Brokaws are going to smile ear to ear, as his did last night. It always amazes me how liberals like Brokaw are supposedly champions of minorities, Jews, yet why doesn't he give up his anchor job to a 'More Qualified Person", maybe a black, or a Jew?......

Richard Nixon was a filthy-mouthed, unregenerate, power hungry, unindicted co-conspirator who resigned from office in disgrace.

Approximately 80% of American Jews agree that:

Abortion on demand good
Gun control good
Democrats good
Social programs/welfare good
Central/federal planning good
NY Times editorials good

I think you get the idea

There are many Catholics who believe the same thing ... Ted Kennedy comes to mind. However, liberal Catholics (in name only) don't represent me as a conservative Cathoic. The same can be said about Jews.

No, I don't. I don't think Nixon's anti-semitism even if fully known back then accounts for the jewish love affair with democrats which goes back further than Nixon.

I recall while in college, one morning in a Speech class, the prof asked the small class what they thought of Watergate. We looked at him and each other, having not heard of it. It was in that infant stage of breaking as a story. There were anti-Nixon sentiments by lots of students, but not ones like me, being the chair of my campus Republican club. i recall doing a paper on President Nixon, not necessarily the most popular politician of his time, but the most recognizable and visible. I admired the fighting spirit in him. He was a Quaker who served in the Navy, when Quakers were not expected to serve, and though he fumbled the Watergate mess, he was a brilliant man, and to this day, I'm not afraid to say, he remains one of my favorite presidents of all time.

I'm glad the leader of the free world had time to discuss who the writers of Laugh In were. Good job by Haldeman, the ultimate yes men. Nice of Graham to study up on the always prevalent "Jewish Pornographer" menace. Please, what a couple of nuts.

Do you pray ? What does that have to do with it?

As a Christian, I am eternally grateful to the Jews in a religious sense. They are the vehicle of my salvation. It is THEIR history, THEIR faithfulness, THEIR communion with God that ushered in MY redemption, MY faith, MY life as I know it. They are FAMILY to me in that sense.

I will always and forever side with Israel regarding their land. It might as well be the USA because I feel that strongly about it!

Now, that said, I do not like liberals. Not Jewish liberals, not Christian liberals, not atheist liberals (I qualify the word "like" to mean "strongly disagree with politically" because I know liberal people that I personally love and respect).

The media is way too liberal and we need to balance it. That is as true today as it apparently was in the 70's.

If Nixon were president today, the media would treat that as a plus. Don't you remember the media consternation recently when Bush said that he didn't recognize the name of Leo -what's his name- from the movie Titanic?

Richard Nixon prayed with Billy Graham
What did that make him ?

It is not anti-Semitism.

It absolutely is anti-Semitism.

And it is almost medieval

There is profound danger in using a tape that tells only one part of the story. Billy Graham's life has been an open book and his work around the world is known by millions.

For a press account to deem him "anti-Semitic" because he thinks some Jewish businessmen aren't doing a better job is ridiculous.

Remember, the same leftists refused to call impeached42 a perjurer.
