    I don't understand....I don't usually follow these threads. Why would this be an issue?

    Because the Jews stick together and their allegiance is to Israel first, and the United States second. Everyone knows that.

    I don't mean to break up what I'm sure will be a hilarious shredding, but "Ross Perot with better timing."

    Has anyone ever been damned by fainter praise?

    You forgot to mention an African-American with a middle eastern name.

    Throw in the Mormon and whoever else we can label, and you have a race that almost resembles America...diverse and minority. Not that any of these people would make good presidents, but it's nice to see something other than middle-aged white Christian men in their standard-issue red ties.

    Huh. I didn't know that. Thank you for explaining, maybe Big Chee will elaborate when he returns. I always liked Bloomberg, this is disappointing.

    Trust me, I like Bloomberg as well and feel he has been the most effective mayor this city has had in 20 years and would vote for him before any candidate currently running for office, including Barack Obama. But I do find that for some Jewish politicians, whats best for Israel is put before the interest of whats best for the U.S.

    To throw Catholics, blacks and others in the boat is silly since there isn't an African American run country whose policies can get in the way of whats in the best interest for the US.

    As opposed to Christian politicians awaiting the red heifer and the return of the Messiah to Jerusalem? Israel is just as much a fetish for them.

    I've thrown the Ralph Reed's of the world in the same pot. Why is it a problem?

    Assclown. Beat me to it, HH

    This thread is getting more amusing with every page.

    I think to say that certain Jewish politicians care overmuch about Israel is to say nothing - but to say it in a vaguely unfriendly way. American foreign policy, and therefore our politics, for the last 60 years have been inextricably tied to Israel. So have American politicians, of every stripe, color and creed. For better and worse, Israel is the gravitational center of all American policy in the Middle East. To limit the observation of our fixation with Israel to Jewish politicians rings a little anti-Semitic.
