An Open Letter to the Jewish Community:
Seven Jewish U.S. Senators Write Letter On Obama/Muslim Smears. All the candidates if they have any class should support this letter in public.
Over the past several weeks, many in the Jewish community have received hateful emails that use falsehood and innuendo about Senator Barack Obama’s religion and attack him personally. As Jewish United States Senators who have not endorsed a candidate for the Democratic nomination, we condemn these scurrilous attacks.
We find it particularly abhorrent that these attacks arc apparently being sent specifically to the Jewish Community. Jews, who have historically been the target of such attacks, should be the first to reject these tactics.
We won’t dignify these falsehoods by repeating them in order to refute them. Instead, we will express our outrage at these tactics, which are being used to demonize a good and
decent man and our friend and colleague. Attempting to manipulate voters into supporting or opposing one candidate or another based on despicable and fictitious attacks is disgraceful. These false and malicious attacks should not be part of our political discourse.All voters should support whichever candidate they believe would make the best president. We sincerely hope that Americans will make that decision based on the factual records of these candidates, not false charges circulated by anonymous mass emails.
Sincerely,
Carl Levin
Barbara Boxer
Ben Cardin
Russ Feingold
Frank Lautenberg
Bernie Sanders
Ron Wyden
Obama sets record straight on his religion
What happened to our great Senator from New York, Chuck Schumer?
I guess we leave out Joe Lieberman since he is now an “independent”.
It looks like a good thing here. And contrary to popular belief there’s plenty of folks here on the right who never “took the bait” by injecting religion into politics at every turn.
Bill,
Re your post #4: you always forget that it can be more than religion…it can also be ethnicity! I’ll keep reminding you when you forget.
Anytime anyone sees a post from racist Hugh, remember . . . the word of the day is EDUCATE!
Hey David, this one’s for you, as well as Bill and others:
The propaganda machine works well in Europe, also.

I’m actually into the “why can’t we all just get along” scenario. But of course I’m for enforcing the border and rule of law and Constitutionalism too. And frankly the “Katrina response” was awful as far as I was concerned. I’m also for “freedom of association” which you can’t have until you get some PALEO-CONSERVATIVES elected.
Bill, your “why can’t we all just get along” scenario concept can’t work. It’s called “human nature” that gets in the way. Your concept is suicidal for my people!
