Pamela Geller on "Reform" Jews...

which begged the question, "What the hell is a reformed Jew?"

And this sort of thing is what eats up my time.

It's a habit of mine to do at least minimal research on a topic before flapping my gums. 

Several years ago I cleared up Messianic Jew - another oddity if you ask me.

Pam writes in her article, Leftist U.S. Jews Slam Trump Over Jerusalem Move, Warn of ‘Destructive Consequences’, that the "reform" Jews are all in a tizzy over Trump declaring Jerusalem the capitol of Israel. 

The conclusion I reached is reform Jews are sort of like cafeteria Catholics.  These people just pick and choose what they like about a religion and ignore what they don't like. 

The difference between Jews and Catholics is a Jew can be an ethnic definition as well as a religion, whereas being Catholic isn't ethnic. 

That being said, one of the notable things (to me) about reform Jews is their casting out the traditions, many of the holidays, prayers, and other flotsam and jetsam that impedes how they lead their lives. 

Nothing is going to stop them from calling themselves Jews, just as Catholics for Choice can parade around calling themselves Catholic, but the only people they're fooling is themselves.

Pam's article is good and well worth a read.

Kudos to Pam Geller!

I wake up this morning to see my husband spitting all over his computer screen and excitingly asking if I had seen the Pam Geller (of Atlas Shrugs), Ron Reagan, Stephanie somebody-or-other interview on the Joy Behar show.

"Why, no honey, I just crawled out of bed."  He had wandered, unescorted, over to Pundit and Pundette (these guys are great!) and had just finished watching this aberration we like to call "entertainment" in this country.  His demeanor by this time had devolved into that of a rabid dog who couldn't find a water bowl.

After rapidly swilling down a few cups of coffee, I headed over to P & P to watch the video.  I made it to about seven minutes before joining my husband in searching for water.  I settled for more coffee, and proceeded to watch the whole miserable display of ad hominem attacks against Sarah Palin and it made me ill.

Between Joy Behar,  Ron Reagan (who hides behind the memory of his father like a little girl hiding behind her mommy's  skirt), and this Stephanie person, this is what I heard:

Sarah Palin is:

1. a hypocrite
2. disrespectful
3. a walking talking gaff machine
4. has no basic principles
5. a quitter
6. couldn't even define satire
7. without a thought in her head
8. ignorant
9. knows nothing about foreign policy
10. oh yes - a quitter!
11. and more hypocrite...

Somewhere towards the end of all this trash talk, this Stephanie person said something or other about Sarah Palin using a "cootie catcher" for whatever.  I had no idea of what she was saying.

As disturbing as it is to watch, I think Pam Geller did a remarkable job of keeping her cool. Her final shot at the end of the video makes it worth the watch.  And watch you should do.  Knowledge of your enemy is protection against your enemy.  If you don't know how the minds of these people work, or don't work as this interview points up so well, you will be unable to defend your position.

I agree with Pam Geller - the more they throw around insults instead of reasoned arguments, the more f-bombs, retard comments, and  ad hominem attacks they sling about, the more their credibility tanks.  They epitomize everything in our society that has become crude and vulgar.
