Fanciful, that

meh

I remember a quotation, but not the author, that went something like this.  "What your child is taught in the first grade will take a lifetime to unteach."  A good many hard core democrats I know growed up in households like this.  Where granny preached on how grampa had his skull cracked at Matewan back in '19.  Yessiree .  By  goons sent in by the Republican governor, at the request of mine owners intent on breaking the strike. Or, somesuch.  Ain't nuthin' what gonna make them vote for a Republican.  Nothing.   They are the original  "would vote for a yellow dog if it were labeled democrat."   Those grannies were first grade teachers. American Jews, it seems to me, are similarly afflicted by eons of misguided, or  misdirected rules for being socially responsible, a pathway to progressive politics of the third kind.  I have no idea what's in that toxic olio, but it's 95% strong.   So, I view this headline most sardonically.  WIRE: Obama risks alienating Jewish voters... meh
