Irreverent, contrarian, delighted to be out of synch with the zeitgeist, I depend on my sense of humour (such as it is) to keep me sane in this wacky world.

First things first: I have spoken to a leftist Jew who told me that the reason she wants Obama to win is because her number one concern is—wait for it—the Supreme Court. I have heard from a colleague who told me an acquaintance of hers said she couldn’t possibly vote for Stephen Harper—the only world leader to have stood up and bravely defied the upcoming, and second, UN gang-bang of Israel, Durban II—because her number one concern is “arts funding,” which the Prime Minister has just cut. (He didn’t cut it because he’s a philistine, although that’s probably what this woman believes. He cut it because much of the funding wasn’t being used to further creative endeavours and a flowering of Canadian arts so much as it was providing lavish trips on the taxpayers’ dime to rich leftists so they could act as our “cultural ambassadors”—an egregious waste of money if there ever was one.)  And I—we—have heard from CIJA,  the umbrella for Jewish advocacy groups in Canada, which advises us that our top-of-mind concern in next month's election should be “poverty”.

That’s right, folks, “poverty”.

As a welcome respite from all these clueless Jews and their maladroit prioritizing, here’s Caroline Glick, a gal who has her priorities straight.
