    <title>Political tidbits: Joe the Plumber takes on the Middle East and Shepard Smith is appalled</title>
    <link>http://blogs.jta.org/ENTRY_PERMALINK_HERE/political-tidbits-joe-the-plumber-takes-on-the-middle-east-and-shepard-smith-is-appalled/</link>
    <description>A Jewish senior citizen told &#8220;Joe the Plumber&#8221; at a campaign appearance Tuesday that the election of Obama would bring &#8220;death to Israel&#8221; &#8211; and Joe agreed. Later, asked by Fox News&#8217; Shepard Smith whether he thinks John McCain agrees with him, Joe said he had no idea and it was his &#8220;personal opinion&#8221; that he&#8217;d come up with by &#8220;looking into different facts&#8221; &#8211; and that people shouldn&#8217;t listen to his opinion anyway. Smith is so appalled after the interview that he mutters &#8220;it just gets frightening sometimes&#8221; and states that Obama &#8220;has said and demonstrated repeatedly that Israel will always be a friend of the United States.&#8221; The Huffington Post has the video. The McCain campaign doesn&#8217;t seem nearly as disgusted, saying Joe is offering &#8220;penetrating and clear analysis.&#8221;


David Gelernter writes in the Weekly Standard that the best word to describe John McCain is a Hebrew one &#8211; tsaddik, &#8220;a man of such nobility and moral substance that he approaches holiness.&#8221;


The Huffington Post has the details on a Florida GOP mailer that calls Obama &#8220;no friend of Israel.&#8221;
Photos of Obama with leaders of all three of Israel&#8217;s major political parties are featured on a mailer the Obama&#45;Biden campaign is sending out in Florida, reports Lynn Sweet in the Chicago Sun&#45;Times.


Under the headline &#8220;How the GOP Scares Jews,&#8221; Slate examines the e&#45;mail the Pennsylvania GOP sent out to Jewish voters suggesting that an Obama win could bring a second Holocaust.


Michael Freund of the Jerusalem Post is disturbed that Israel&#8217;s foes are all rooting for Obama.
Raphael Sonenshein speculates why recent polls are showing Jewish voters moving to Obama &#8211; and says Sarah Palin&#8217;s failure to name a single newspaper she reads couldn&#8217;t have helped the Republican ticket, in the Los Angeles Jewish Journal.


A liberal pro&#45;choice Jewish woman for McCain explains her reasons, at the American Thinker.
&#8220;From Iran Agression to U.S. Recession: The Challenges Ahead&#8221;: Mona Charen, David Horowitz, Cliff May, Daniel Pipes and Michael Medved discuss the campaign&#8217;s issues, from a conservative perspective, in a forum sponsored by the Jewish Policy Center.
Does the voiceover on this McCain ad about Obama and Iran sound &#8220;suspiciously Jewish,&#8221; Jeffrey Goldberg wonders at The Atlantic.
Sen. John Cornyn&#8217;s campaign manager calls Rep. Scott Garrett (R&#45;N.J.) &#8220;a nut.&#8221; His Democratic opponent Dennis Shulman&#8217;s daughter, a Capitol Hill aide, gets it on tape, according to The Hill (Fourth item down).

      <description>Sheppard Smith Takes On Joe the Plumber...


Sheppard: Why specifically is a vote for Obama a vote for the death of Israel?

Joe: Well specifically, look at his record. Obama&#8217;s agreed to meet with Israel&#8217;s enemies with no uncertain terms.. In fact he&#8217;s letting them dictate terms&#8230;</description>

      <description>Jews are fools if they think that &#8216;any&#8217; forthcoming US president will reach to the bottom of the cess pool to support Jewish terrorism in the coming election.


Jews continue to become &#8216;demons&#8217; in the eyes of the world community with the daily dose of terrorism, murder and mayhem being visited on the Palestinians &#45; people who have lived on these ancient lands since the Jews were packing up in Kahzaria and getting ready to go and &#8216;undo&#8217; Czarist Russia in +520 BC.


If the Jews think they can continue with their &#8216;illegal&#8217; settlements in the hands of the Settler viper outlaws they had better take out their book on &#8216;ancient mythology&#8217; and study it some more.


Recent books published in Israel, authored by one of Israel&#8217;s top historians, suggests that the Jews was never &#8216;evicted&#8217; from Jerusalem and are not even quite as &#8216;semitic&#8217; as they would wish they were &#45; and much less than the resident Palestiians.

Jews continue to become &#8216;demons&#8217; in the eyes of the world community with the daily dose of terrorism, murder and mayhem being visited on the Palestinians - people who have lived on these ancient lands since the Jews were packing up in Kahzaria and getting ready to go and &#8216;undo&#8217; Czarist Russia in +520 BC.
