I believe that June Walker was a big abortion supporter, which is unfortunate. Some of these older Jewish organizations, including the one of “Reformed Rabbis” (we call them Unitarians) are extremely leftwing and should be chucked! I will not donate to them. CAMERA is a much better organization as is Beth Gelinsky’s group (I think it is the Jewish Action Alliance). Rabbi Eric Yoffie is a disgrace. His big concern is performing gay marriage ceremonies! This is what he lives for.

Don’t you think it’s time you Jews started fighting your own battles? We Americans have more important issues to attend to than the plight of racist Israel.

This is not the first time, unfortunately, that some Americans of Jewish faith have shown that they are willing to put party lowalty above the safety of the Jewish state.

The first outrage should be directed at Hillary Clinton for for putting personal and democratic party politics above serious issues of world importance. It is to her shame and disgrace that she dropped out like a little cry-baby when she heard Palin was also going to be there.

The fact of the matter is that this IS a political event. It’s politicians who bring about policy. Let all the elected officials and candidates who want to come and spreak do so. Palin is an even more important figure than Hillary now because she is a major party national nominee.

The next shameful culprit is the Conference of Presidents of Major Jewish Organizations. Tell me, when did they decide that this was a political rally? Before of after Hillary acted like a spoiled little cry-baby and backed out? Both they and Hillary should have had the fortitute to hold their ground and tell any democratic party pressure groups what they could do with themselves. But they couldn’t, could they? That’s what it comes down to.

How the heck can you “uninvite” an important pro-Israel speaker like Sarah Palin?

The COPOMJO is a non-partisan organization? My “toosh” they are!

Is this the type of organization we as Jews really want representing us? I think it would be only proper for Jewish people here and abroad to call for the resignation of Malcolm Hoenlein as head of the this organization. It’s too bad his predecessor, June Walker, passed away recently. She probably would have been a lot more sensible in this situation. And Marc R. Stanley should probably be forced to resign from his position also.

Fortunately, many other influential Jewish people and organizations have started speaking out against this embarrassing travesty. Hopefully this all can be rectified in some manner or another.

Why did the event organizers let themselves be cowed into withdrawing the invitation? Shameful as well as stupid. The event would have had much more television coverage with either one or both ladies there. Now I don’t care enough to look for it on TV. The Dems hatred of Governor Palin is beyond belief. All these years I thought the feminists wanted strong women to be in leadership positions. If you have thoughts of your own, if you are a conservative, they’ll throw you under the bridge. I hope the event organizers re-think the withdrawal of the invitation. Stupidity wins again!

Thanks for letting me rant.

For the Iranians, a very large showing at this rally would be in the Jewish peoples best interest and look very bad for Iran. Just think of the thousands that Sarah Palin would draw to this event. Israel’s strongest allies are in the Republican Party.

What a bunch of double speak (lies) that the Obamanites spew forth. Beware, dear Old Testament brothers and sisters, the Messiah IS NOT Barack Hussein Obama, just an opportunist that will use anything to get elected.

Obama = Blackshirts!
