H/T to my father-in-law (who is not Jewish)
A female CNN journalist heard about a very old Jewish man who
had been going to the Western Wall to pray, twice a day, every day,
for a long, long time.
So she went to check it out. She went to the Western Wall and
there he was, walking slowly up to the holy site.
She watched him pray and after about 45 minutes, when he turned
to leave, using a cane and moving very slowly, she approached him
for an interview.
“Pardon me, sir, I’m Rebecca Smith from CNN. What’s your
name?
“Morris Feinberg,” he replied.
“Sir, how long have you been coming to the Western Wall and
praying?”
“For about 60 years.”
“60 years! That’s amazing! What do you pray for?”
“I pray for peace between the Christians, Jews and the
Muslims.”
“I pray for all the wars and all the hatred to stop.”
“I pray for all our children to grow up safely as responsible
adults and to love their fellow man.”
“I pray that politicians tell us the truth and put the interests
of the people ahead of their own interests.”
“How do you feel after doing this for 60 years?”
“Like I’m talking to a brick wall.”

Yup. Especially thanks to the reporters from CNN.

I just wish that 80% of US Jews would remove that "brick wall" that lies between their brains and the Democratic Party [and especially their present presidential candidate]. They should contemplate Reagan's words to Gorbachaf of TEAR DOWN THIS WALL [before November]!!!!

PS: If it would be of any assistance to those same 80% of US Jews regarding their choice for POTUS, my suggestion would be to contemplate the fact that none other than the brilliant SNOOP DOG has now endorsed Obama [see HuffPo's website recent news]!!!!!!!!!
