Surprising revelation about rabbi who exposed Helen Thomas
Newsbusters presents some very surprising news about rabbi David Nesenoff, who exposed Helen Thomas's anti-semitism: he's actually a liberal who agreed with her (initially, anyway) on the Iraq war, and now has to reevaluate his views:
I'm glad to see he understands why he'll need to reconsider his standings. This is another case where a liberal might be waking up.
NESENOFF: Yeah, you know, I received about 25,000 hate mail, you know, emails, and, more shocking than even that, is the hate media I’m beginning to learn about – you know, from TV and newspapers and blogs and talk shows and entertainers, and they’re accusing me of being some right-wing ambusher, and it really rocked my world because I have to reevaluate my life and my standing in the agendas because, yeah, I’m a New York Democrat Jewish liberal supporter of Obama, donated to his candidacy for a year, said give him a chance, give him a chance, defended, watched all these liberal media, and now I have to reevaluate, I have to speak, I have to now speak to people with all different agendas because if I was part of a team where their agenda was that Israel and the Jewish people don’t have a connection – which is exactly what Helen Thomas said – there’s no connection, why are they even there-Some call this a case of liberals eating their own, and indeed, there have been quite a few cases like that over the years (The New Republic, which is liberal, could be one of those they've eaten).
I'm glad to see he understands why he'll need to reconsider his standings. This is another case where a liberal might be waking up.
