GOP group behind negative Obama poll - Ben Smith - Politico.com

GOP group behind negative Obama poll - Ben Smith - Politico.com: "New York Sun: Obama’s “Commitment To Israel…Is Quite Moving” Which “Israel’s Friends In America…Can Warmly Welcome.”
The New York Sun wrote in an editorial, “At least by our lights, Mr. Obama’s commitment to Israel, as he has articulated it so far in his campaign, is quite moving and a tribute to the broad, bipartisan support that the Jewish state has in America…But as a candidate, he has chosen to put himself on the record in terms that Israel’s friends in America, at least those not motivated by pure political partisanship, can warmly welcome.”
[New York Sun, 1/9/08]
The New York Sun reported, “On just the question of Mr. Obama’s support for Israel, however, the president of the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, Howard Friedman, minimized any differences between the candidates. ‘All of the leading candidates, Senators Clinton, Obama, and McCain, and Governor Huckabee, have demonstrated their support for a strong U.S.-Israel relationship,’ Mr. Friedman said.” [New York Sun, 2/21/08]"

Ratio of Male to Female in a community > Forums at the FrumCommunity.com > Forums and Blogs at the Frum Community: "Being able to only see things from one perspective, I don't know whether it is easier for men or women to find shidduchim. It does seem to me, however, that in both cases shidduchim today focus too much on calculating the benefits of a marriage instead of actually looking at attraction and love (both in a purely Torah way, not the ridiculous secular notion!) and the binding of two neshomos.

I myself fit into an unsual category. I am young guy who is very in touch with the beautiful aspects of the secular world (yes, they do exist if you make sure to view them from the correct perspective) and is doing my utmost to make sure that I do hishtadlus to earn a parnossa and such. However, at the same time, I plan on heading to Israel after I complete my masters to learn for 4 or 5 years, after which I aim to make a parnossa hopefully through spreading Torah around the world."

CNN’s Blitzer Mouths Liberal Talking Points on Taxes, Oil Profits | NewsBusters.org

CNN’s Blitzer Mouths Liberal Talking Points on Taxes, Oil Profits NewsBusters.org: "outlined McCain’s proposal to lower the federal business tax rate at the beginning of the segment, which began 14 minutes into the 5 pm Eastern hour of the CNN program, Blitzer took a persistent stance in asking if the reduction in taxes included 'big oil.' First, the CNN host asked, 'Would that reduction of the tax rate also include, as Obama says, ExxonMobil and the other big oil companies, who are awash in record profits?'"

In The Beginning

In The Beginning: "What Are Our Leaders Doing?

In yesterday’s Daf we were learning that by the time we as a leader have caused someone to sin; who has in turn also caused someone else to sin, that is now too late to do tshuva for that act. We learned that even a profit such as Elisha was punished for pushing away one of his students with rebuke using both hands. Instead we are taught that with our rebuke we can indeed push someone with one hand (as mussar) but that we need to also bring them close to Hashem with our other hand."
