The Next DNC Chair: TOM PEREZ WINS, makes Ellison deputy chair

[DavidB.]

Great, encouraging sign for Jews, the single group that trended most Democratic in the 2016 election. It would be truly shameful if Ellison won this, turning the Democratic Party into the next UK Labour where anti-Jewish sentiments are actively being promoted by the leadership. Just what we need in these times of uncertainty. Of course, an anti-Jewish turn in the Democratic Party was to be expected given the developments on college campuses, but if Hillary Clinton had been elected, the process could at least have been slowed down.

Both are deplorable, but I'd prefer Bannon over Ellison and it's not even close.

Now I remember why I don't like you.

The feeling's entirely mutual, hon.

LOLOLOL at this list of "anti-semitic Keith Ellison controversies:"

http://heavy.com/news/2016/11/keith-ellison-controversy-controversies-israel-nation-of-islam-louis-farrakhan-anti-semitic-comments-george-bush-hitler-american-islamic-relations-campaign-contributions/

Exactly zero of these are "anti-semitic."

*****

Also LOLOL at Alan Dershowitz saying that the majority of the anti-semitism in the USA is on the left with Keith Ellison and Black Lives Matter.

What a joke.  Dershowitz is a brilliant lawyer; it's a shame he is one of those "anyone who isn't stridently anti-palestine is automatically a raging anti-semite" hacks.

Love the goysplaining Derschowitz is entirely right.

Aaaaaaaaaand back to being R. Fck Ellison.

If Ernst is going to go on an anti-Semitic rant again, which is to be expected, could I at least not be forced to see his posts because he is a moderator here?

Nothing he posted is anti-Semitic. I'm sick of accusations of anti-Semitism being used to shut down debate about Israel.

What you are sick of, Mr Privilege, is wholly irrelevant to me and the entire world. If it were up to people like you, black people would still not be allowed to sit in front of the bus.

putting aside the actual argument for a second - weren't you perfectly fine with supporting the "lesser evil" before…?

Of course, but the point, to me, is that Ellison is not even the lesser evil.

You'd think the people who were so brutally persecuted and killed during WWII would've known better than to mistreat other groups of people that way.

Wow. Just wow.

So having a critical view of the State of Israel=supporter of segregation?
You are utterly deranged. People like you are why Israel is rapidly losing the sympathy of the world.

Guess what? The State exists largely because of the fact that Israel simply cannot depend on the "sympathy of the world". Israel relying on the "sympathy of the world" gave us the pogroms. People like you gave us Auschwitz. Now we have the State and no one cares about scum like you and their "sympathies" anymore. "The world" only "sympathizes" with Israel if we are being killed. But we are not your slaves anymore, sorry to disappoint.

Ernst is probably going to apply his own anti-Jewish policy in terms of moderation with regard to this post, but whatever.

Woooo! Tom Perez!!!
