Obama Rumors

I’m glad to see someone with the profile of Mayor Michael Bloomberg is taking on the Obama rumors and doing so in an intelligent way. He mentions that saying Obama is a Muslim should not be considered a smear and it has no bearing on Israel, which is being used as a political football. I have a lot of respect for Mayor Bloomberg. This speech only increases it. Electorally, I’m curious, knowing that Jews break heavily Democratic during Presidential elections, would the smear campaign really cause them to vote Republican? Or is it just a way to suppress the vote?…

PFBC – Thanks

Well, the first Progressive Faith Blog Con is over. Unfortunately I couldn’t make the last day, but the reports are good. I want to thank the good organizers of the Con for making it a success. The group was a large enough size that it felt like we could do something real, but small enough to be intimate. It was diverse enough to avoid us sounding like an echo chamber, but respectful enough to always have something in common. I know in an event like this there are numerous people, named and nameless, faced and faceless, to make individual thanks…
