Thursday Jewish Political Update 10/6/11

Are the Occupy Wall Street people Anti-Semites? YWN has a debate on it. Not many expressed anti-Semitic slurs, and Obama came out today validating those protests. My point is “If President Obama understands that ALL Republican presidential candidates needed to condemn the three four people out of 6,000 Republicans at a debate who boo-ed DADT, then the President should come out and condemn this too.” See here the video and transcript.

Can a conservative favor a Pollard release? Eric Ericson, Editor of RedSate, a very popular conservative website, makes a case as to why Republicans should not submit to the October 11’th debate hosted by the Washington Post and Bloomberg News. Among others he notes that “The Post hosts Jenn Rubin who claims to be a conservative but has spent the better part of her career at the Post advocating the release of the traitor Jonathan Pollard and routinely bashing Senator Jim DeMint.”

Ok, if someone rips DeMint, then the person is likely not a sound Conservative. But I am confused why it would be “unconservative” to advocate that someone serving a sentence 4-5 times longer than average spies should not be released (a few years before his Nov 20, 2015 release date).

Jewish Floridians may come in handy for Repubs, based on a PPP Poll that shows incumbent Democrat U.S. Senator Ben Nelson would win with double digits against any of the Republicans trying to unseat him late next year.
