Comment of the day:
Reader Otis, my man on The Podhoretz Method:
Yes, you, Seth Lipsky and Norman Podhoretz are on to something here. Liberalism is a “faith system” for secular people.

Many leading Communists of the early 2oth century were Jews. We often forget that Israel is a socialist country and that its kibbutzes are communes.
I find it interesting that many religiously observant Jews tend to be conservative, just as many religiously observant Christians tend to be conservative as well.
What to watch for:
