Despite the tense rift between Republican and Democratic Jews over the course of the 2008 U.S. presidential campaign, exit polls on Tuesday showed that Barack Obama received about 77 percent of the Jewish vote.

These numbers were higher even than the 2004 election, when Democratic candidate John Kerry received 74 percent of the Jewish vote. Al Gore received the highest percentage of Jewish votes in 2000, with 79 percent.

Jeremy Ben-Ami, executive director of the J Street lobby group on Tuesday called Obama’s victory a sign that the campaign waged against him by Republican Jews comprised “baseless smears.”

So you think you are so high and mighty that it is okay to smear Jews for their voting patterns. So instead of contributing something constructive...you repeat the same mantra like numerous others on every Israel/Jewish thread. As a conservative orthodox Jew, EVERY Jew is my brother regardless and you should stfu about things you no nothing about.

Ahh, yes... the stench of bigotry.

Let’s have the Israelis suffer and die for the error of America’s liberal Jewish population. And while we’re at it, let’s insult what conservative Jewry we have.

So, when are you going to do the same for the US Catholic vote and the US black vote?

Oh, wait, you aren’t.
