"Why Do Jews Not Vote For Republicans?"


EVERY Jew I ever knew was a frothing-pro-abortion-dim. Forget tax cuts, freedom, socialism, Hitler. Many are past and present friends, but the abortion on demand is fixed.

It's interesting to compare abortion to the Holocaust in front of them, you always get a well rehearsed Democrat song and dance!

I am shocked at what I see here on this thread. I never thought there were so many people on free republic with such negative feelings towards Jewish people.

You might find it interesting that the RJC did a poll of Jewish voters, (but all of them were found in two states and one district (NJ, FL, PA 6)) so its not perfect.

Its main findings:

26.4% of Jews voted Republican.

Younger Jewish voters supported Republican candidates in even greater numbers.

Among those under age 55, 30.7% voted Republican, compared to 23.8% of those age 55 and over.

It also found that Jewish men are more inclined to vote Republican (30.6%) than women (22.6%).

And, among those who attend synagogue almost every day, 35.2% voted Republican, those who attend once a week, 31.8% voted Republican, and only 23.1% of "occasional attendees" voted Republican.

Reform Jews voted 23.0% Republican, Conservative 25.2% Republican, and Orthodox 42% Republican.

The more religious, the more Republican.

the urban-small town and Southern rift is bigger than you think. Politics is cultural and jews are very urban. I think Giuliani leading the ticket would induce a small number to change.

You're assuming entirely too much rationality in human nature. Guns and Jews rarely mix, even if, as you point out, they should.

You don't have time. By the time you've had a century to get used to who your friends are, Israel will be a smoking irradiated ruin.

The attitude of the far left to Israel will drive some Jews to consider voting Republican,



The more muslims enter the political arena and exert influence in the democratic party I think we'll see more and more jews wake up and rethink their politics. We're seeing more and more far left radicals bashing Israel these days. The GOP will be smart to accommodate them rather than keep them at arm's length as has been the case historically. The left's love affair with Europe is another alarm that should be going off for Jews. As Europe becomes more Islamist the radical left here in the states will blindly trot along behind them embracing the new European Islamic culture at the expense of the Jews. As our far left embraces the rest of the world, undoing the damage of the Bush Administration, in their view, we can expect this effort to be at the expense of Israel and Jews worldwide. The west is unwilling to fight for anything anymore. The left is in step with this unwillingness to stand for anything and throwing Israel to the wolves is nothing more than expedient policy to this crowd.

Mark Levin, who impresses me greatly, Michael Savage, who I like also and listen to a lot, Ben Stein, a very intelligent man, are examples, among others as well, who are Jewish, and are fiercely conservative. They feel somewhat betrayed by the Republican party, as I do, but are on the right nonetheless. Mona Charen is conservative and a brilliant columnist. Unfortunately, they are a minority among the Jews. Liberal Jews have strayed from God and embrace liberalism as their religion, and probably have a golden statue of Bill Clinton that they worship. The sick, diseased, treasonous democrat party is an enemy of Isreal and have this touchy-feely relationship with the Islamofascists who want to kill them all. These democrat fools dont realize that they would be the first to be rounded up; homosexuals, Jews, showbiz celebrities, hollywood movie makers, and yet they cozy up to the enemy. Liberal jews are fools, plain and simple for following a party like that. Like Savage says, liberalism is a mental disease. God help us if Hillary Clinton is elected, but one thing is sure, liberal Jews will vote for her. This once great country will truly descend into the abyss when the socialist/communists that populate the democrat party take over.

In case anyone is interested in another thread.

From the mouth of a perfidious Jew, for many reasonable people reading either thread, Why So Few Jews Vote for Republicans one answer is painfully obvious.

"The far left Jews care nothing for truth, law and our history."

No, the far left cares nothing for truth, law and our history.

It has nothing to do with whether someone is Jewish or not.

I am so sick of the constant Jew-bashing on F.R.

Keep it up, and this life-long Republican WILL become a Democrat because it is clear there is no hope for this country and it needs to go to Hell.

"The last statistic I saw was that 85% of Jews voted Democrat."

Yeah, and over 60% of Roman Catholics voted for Jon Carey.

And Pelosi, Jon Carey, and Ted Kennedy are all Roman Catholic! Leaders of the Dim party!

What's wrong with the Roman Catholics!? Don't they know the Dims favor divorce-at-will, gay marriage, and aboriton-on-demand!?!

Don't the Roman Catholics LOVE children?!

DOES THE ABOVE SOUND ABSURD TO YOU? Racist? Bigoted, even?

Well, so does all this constast crap about Democratic Jews.

Secural urban people vote Democratic. Jews --- many of whom are JINOS are largely Urban. Ergo, they are Dims.

Same with Roman Catholics.

It's no mystery.

"It's my understanding Sirhan Sirhan is/was at the time of the RFK murder, a Palestinian Christian."

Correct. He was raised a Maronite Christian. At other times called himself a Baptist and a Mormon. But never a Muslim.
