Raul Labrador just released a statement announcing his bid for House majority leader. (AP Photo)<br />Rep. Raul Labrador just released a statement announcing his bid for House majority leader. (AP...<br />Second-term Rep. Raul Labrador, R-Idaho, plans to challenge Rep. Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., for the second most powerful House leadership position.<br /><br />Labrador just released a statement announcing his bid for House majority leader, saying he believes Majority Leader Eric Cantor's primary loss on Tuesday shows, “Americans are looking for a change in the status quo.”<br /><br />The leadership election is scheduled for June 19. Labrador made the announcement a half-day after it appeared McCarthy had the job locked up with no opponents.<br /><br />Sign Up for the Politics Today newsletter!<br />Now, a Labrador aide said, the contest is up in the air.<br /><br />“The old math can be thrown out,” the aide said, without revealing how many lawmakers support Labrador. “It’s a whole new ballgame.”<br /><br />Now serving as House majority whip, McCarthy has been cultivating close relationships with the rank and file for years and claimed by Thursday to have gathered the backing of more than half the conference.<br /><br />His only opponent, House Rules Committee Chairman Pete Sessions, R-Texas, dropped out Thursday night as his became clear he stood little chance of winning.<br /><br />But the inevitability of McCarthy succeeding Cantor angered the most conservative faction of the House.<br /><br />They had tried to recruit House Financial Services Committee Chairman Jeb Hensarling, R-Texas, but he declined to run.<br /><br />Then they pursued Labrador.<br /><br />“He got a lot of encouragement from other members,” a source close to the discussions told the Washington Examiner.<br /><br />Many consider McCarthy to be a politically similar to Cantor, particularly when it comes to immigration reform.<br /><br />Both Cantor and McCarthy, his protege, have expressed acceptance of legislation that would eventually legalize those who came here illegally, which some conservatives view as a form of amnesty.<br /><br />Additionally, conservative talk show hosts who boosted Cantor's primary opponent Dave Brat to victory have been railing against McCarthy as another “pro-amnesty” leader.<br /><br />Labrador, a former immigration lawyer, hardly fits the profile of what many conservatives want, which is someone to oppose any immigration reform that increases immigration, both legal and illegal, which they say will decrease employment and deflate wages.<br /><br />He opposes immigration reform of any kind in 2014, but said he believes in eventually increasing legal immigration and creating a guest worker program after border security is increased.<br /><br />But Labrador has said he opposes a pathway to citizenship. This could help him win favor with conservatives who might view him as an imperfect but far more attractive alternative to McCarthy.Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04145155737835511824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21297199.post-23055778960367028822014-06-13T20:34:37.975-04:002014-06-13T20:34:37.975-04:00Of course they do, Bob.

It is the place of refuge and the home of the world’s Jews. Judaism is the cultural expression of Jewish ethnicity, including Jewish religion, but also including ethics, law, philosophy, outlook, cuisine, music, literature, art, architecture, sexual mores, etc. Of the world’s six recognized cultures, no two have much in common other than superficially as the matter of expediency.<br /><br />Judaism in Europe was nearly eliminated by the extermination of Jews and the wanton destruction of a vast volume of literature expressing the tenets of Judaism and its professors. The modern model of European culture, as that relates to Jews, was Martin Luther. Since Luther was certain that Jewish culture posed the single most lethal threat to Christianity, his murderously vituperative polemics addressed specifically the "Judaizing" of Western European institutions. Because Luther and the Pontiff both agreed that Slavs were heretics, the Reformers, including the Calvinists, and the Roman Church focused on the West. At any rate, Luther was the perfect voice for more than two-thousand years of European history because he brought all the hatred to the final solution, mass murder on an industrial scale.<br /><br />In one of history’s strange quirks, while fighting to the death during the Thirty Years’ War, Protestants and Romans spared no effort in ferreting out Christians of questionable fidelity. Indeed, the Inquisition was significantly ramped up to find “the betrayers of the body and blood of Jesus” within the ranks of the Church; those who would dare challenge the efficacy of faith and the sacraments with precepts of Jewish law.<br /><br />In another area of agreement, the Papacy of the Counter-Reformation and the Protestants equally despised and scorned the Talmud. Wagonloads of Talmuds were torched in both Paris and Geneva, to name but two places of auto-de-fes – one Roman Catholic, the other Protestant. Moreover, it seemed only logical to add any other Jewish literature that might come to hand. Consequently, mountains of literature were set aflame to prevent them from polluting both the minds of Jews (aggressively proselytized) and ignorant Christians unaware of Satan’s agents, the Jews and their abominable law, responsa, and commentary.<br /><br />The Talmud was the target of such animosity, not because it was consistent, rational, captivatingly written, or well organized (The Talmud must be the most disorganized assemblage of essays et al ever passed down to posterity). However, the Talmud is infinitely adaptable and covers EVERYTHING known to human experience. The SCHOTTENSTEIN Edition contains 73 volumes and has a delivery weight of 330 pounds. The Talmud is the playbook that instructs, via finely argued distinctions, how a Jew is to do in his time and place what the Torah orders him to do.<br /><br /> Thus, a Jew is one belonging to a distinct and scientifically definable ethnicity, who is associated, willingly or not (See NAZI, Trotsky, Chomsky), with a unique culture which has been under attack in Europe since at least the 6th C. B.C.E. Although anti-Judaism, is an irrational evil, in every century there have been those eager to denigrate Jews and their culture, Judaism, under some more or less insane pretext, e.g. circumcision and atheism. Genocide has been the goal on countless occasions of Jew haters. This century’s excuse is the cause of the noble Palestinians – who knows what the cause will be next century, but you may be certain that some cretin will rise to the occasion.
