Several weeks ago, I contacted Joan Pasquale, the executive director of the Parents and Community Build Group (PCBG), to inquire about the possibility of volunteers for the Obama campaign running a voter registration table at the fair.
In his weekly opinion column on August 22, M.J. Rosenberg argues that Israel would endanger Jews living outside of Israel by attacking Iran. Furthermore, he rattles off a frightening laundry list of negative outcomes which he claims would result from such an attack: “An Israeli attack on Iran—absent an imminent threat of attack from Iran—is… Read More »
The National Jewish Democratic Council just released an awesome fact sheet on some of McCain’s biggest flip-flops. Read or link to it here: http://njdc.typepad.com/njdcs_blog/2008/07/senator-mccain.html Digg it here: http://digg.com/2008_us_elections/McCain_flip_flop_fact_sheet This is powerful stuff!
The Torah does not like gays. For some Jews, this is not a difficult challenge to overcome. The Torah may have been inspired by God, but it was written by men.

He is a man who says what he means and means what he says, and that’s as refreshing to me as showering with Irish Spring. I also deeply respect how Obama has kept his campaign positive despite the undeniable provocation to… Read More »
