At times Jews have felt the need to cultivate some relationships with the anti-semites for protection, and in hopes of softening their attitudes towards Jews by demonstrating their worthiness and likeability at least one on one. (I recall a major movie mogul saying this directly about Richard M. Nixon while Nixon was president, long before the tapes revealed how correct this mogul was in his discerning anti-semitism in him.)

I also recall a great marquee on a synagogue in 2008: “Don’t forget to vote for der Schwarze!”

That is the thrust of one of the seminars business owners were trying to get me to attend (years ago, when I owned a very small business) – that to prevent if not destroy unions when they were trying to enter a business, give the workers just enough rights so that they won’t vote for the union (loosen the reins so to speak – until the union threat was gone). They also said that unions were always pushed in from the outside, and that if they could isolate their employees enough (and what to look for in potential union supporters) they wouldn’t have to worry about them and could treat their employees however they wanted.

I have, or had the manual from the seminar. It’s pretty scary stuff (turns out that the unions have found copies of it too, so they know what’s being taught to business owners).

It’s the same idea… give only just enough to keep people from rebelling, rather than changing the whole structure and accepting that ordinary people have rights including the right to be treated humanely.

Because Romney has no ability to think (like any robot he has to be fed information) and he is under the influence of Dick Cheney, John Bolton and the3 worst of the worst, if he is elected I just pray for all of us!
These criminals are under no illusions that Romney is smart, they in fact know he is dumb and will do their bidding, they hate Obama who is smart and has a good brain and uses it!

oh, RMoney did it – stepped in that proverbial sh*t – even more than just slamming President Obama with his Adelson interview. Mittens told the interviewer that the Arab Spring could have been avoided if the US had kept to the George W plan:
“President [George W.] Bush urged [deposed Egyptian President] Hosni Mubarak to move toward a more democratic posture, but President Obama abandoned the freedom agenda and we are seeing today a whirlwind of tumult in the Middle East in part because these nations did not embrace the reforms that could have changed the course of their history, in a more peaceful manner,” Romney said.

I would also ask them why American Jewish voters prefer PBO 68% to Romney’s 25% in the latest poll? thepoliticalcarnival.net/... They’d have no answer to this question. Many of them are roaming the internet seeking to downplay the fact that Romney bombed in London. They’re claiming that PBO is just as gaffe-prone as Romney, but I’m swatting them down like I’ve swatted down bothersome houseflies in the past. When Barack Obama went on his pre-election foreign policy tour in 2008, he made none of the mistakes that Romney made because he prepared himself before the trip. Conservatives are very angry because Romney turned out to be as unprepared to be POTUS as we have been saying that he is. That neither he nor anyone in his campaign Googled anything or didn’t think to hire an expert in protocol screams out to me that they are amateurs who thought that Romney’s wealth would buy him goodwill. It also hasn’t helped Romney that British conservatives have praised the president and have stated that,when ti comes to conducting foreign policy, they prefer PBO. Knowledge goes a long way in impressing others, and it’s obvious to me that the Romney campaign overlooked this very important factor. Everything about the Romney campaign signals that it is an amateurish, sloppy operation.
