well isn't that basically xtian opinion for 2000 years?
at least she doesn't hide what she thinks...

Of course public people need to learn to keep their mouth shut, or at least install a filter Laughing

but don't worry, she has insulted pretty much every group under the sun.

I thought I liked her but then I started actually reading her columns and began to re-think. She says some really wacky stuff! I agree Ruchel. She needs to install a filter. Instead I guess I'll install the "ignore ann coulter" filter [:

As a lifelong Democrat from a family of long-time Democrats, I might take exception to your statement.

professor, I agree with Clarissa, at least in part. I think the majority of Jews in America identify with the Democratic party, so how can they be more anti-semitic than the Republicans? However, I was also raised a Democrat, but I'm finding the party's policy on gay "rights", abortion, and Eretz Yisroel vis a vis the "Palestinians" just is not in my interests as a Jew, and needless to say, I've been much less of a Democrat since I became frum...

It is hard to abandon the party entirely for sentimental reasons.(I haven't voted in a while)..but I would much prefer to see Guiliani in than Hilary (who is very pro-Arab)

I would only hope it would make a difference.

I"m conflicted. My whole background is also democratic. Then like mimivan says I shifted when I became frum.

Now I'm nowhere. How can anyone actually like the members of the Bush administration? Not like Kerry would have been better but blech.

The fact that sooo many Jews in America are registered Democrats does not negate the fact that there is a strong antisemitism within the Democratic party.

I like Ann Coulter. I don't agree with everything she says... clearly not her comments about Jews needing to "get with the program" or however she said it... but I like most of what she says. Yes, she is VERY coarse - but she is (in my eyes) in the entertainment business and this is her schtick.

Besides, her comment about Jews should come as no surprise. I think the majority of religious christians share this view, even if they don't say it.

Yeah, historically many Jews voted left or democrat. But I don't understand how today they can vote for these parties, who used to be PRO but are now AGAINST us, because they dislike Israel... coming from a right wing family, I really can't stand that Hilary.

my non frum American cousins are hardcore Republicans.

Traditionally non-frum Jews have been Democrats because of the party's stance on aid for the poor and civil rights. But the Democratic party now , mstands for so many things that are contrary to Jewish values and is now anti-Israel.

GR is right that there are many left wing Jews in Washington who care more about the so-called Palestinians than their brothers and sisters in E.Y. They are embarrassed by our existence. To prove this point, my BIL, who worked in the Clinton White House (he's not so famous), on the occasion of my first trip back from the U.S. after making aliyah, greeted me at the train station wearing a Palestinian scarf...

But he was also very proud of candid photo he took of his mother with Jesse Jackson (of "Hymie Town" fame Puke

) BtW...he somehow "tricked" his mother into this photo. (long story) I am sure she was none-too-thrilled.

this just gives an idea of what we are facing....

Well, personally I'm not crazy about any of them, Democrats or Republicans. Voted for Bush - whilst holding my nose.
