Steve Sailer on Norman Podhoretz’s Why Are Jews Liberal?
Editor’s Note: Podhoretz is of course being disingenuous about the purpose of neoconservatism, which was never to get Jews to vote for Republicans, but to get Republicans to sign on to the Jewish political agenda. In that, neoconservatism has been a complete success. So why are Jews liberals? Here is my stab: Jews are liberals because liberalism both promotes the decline of white American society and positions Jews to profit from that decline. Jews are liberals, because liberalism is bad for America and they think that is good for Jews.
From Vdare.com, October 25, 2009
After 40 years as a leading spokesman for the Neoconservative takeover of the conservative movement, former Commentary editor Norman Podhoretz admits in his new book Why Are Jews Liberals?
While Podhoretz recounts his role in key steps in the Neocon ascendancy over the GOP, such as helping drive former National Review stalwart Joe Sobran into penury (“to encourage the others“) and organizing denunciations of then-National Review editor John O’Sullivan, he confesses that the Neocons’ growing power over the Republican Party has proven useless at converting Jews to the GOP.
According to Podhoretz’s numbers, in the 1928 Presidential election, Al Smith received 78 percent of the Jewish vote. Eighty years later, Barack Obama’s share of the Jewish vote was … 78 percent. . . . If this trend continues, by 2088 the Democrats will be down to 78 percent! . . . Read the Whole Article.

Why does Norman Podhoretz want Jews to be neoconservatives?
That’s the real question here.
I think N-Pod is afraid that the harmless white goy toys who make up most of the “conservative” movement aren’t smart enough to defeat the white identity politics they’re going to have to deal with in the coming decades.
Old Norman is looking for a few good Jews to beef up his neoconservative lineup. Jews who can really drive in the runs and play some solid defense.
Although Sailer has Podhoretz’s number, the article’s weakness is it doesn’t define liberalism but hurls it as a self-evident epithet the way the dittoheads do. What are the differences between neoliberal Marty Peretz and neocon Norman Podhoretz on foreign policy, immigration, trade, financial regulation and general cultural outlook? The problem isn’t that Jews are liberal, the problem is that American liberalism is Jewish.
On the diversity/immigration issue, Jews and liberal democrats agree.
The goy dems like standing up for the downtrodden Third World masses.
The Jews see immigrants a political weapon against the majority.
