The Anti-Semitic Enablers of the Democrat Party

I believe it is important to shed the light of day on the organizations with whom local Democrats choose to associate.

At the recent Cindy Sheehan rally last Saturday in Evanston,(see my post) the organizers, the North Shore Anti-War Coalition, publicly thanked the Democrat party for their help, right at the beginning of the program. The Sheehan rally was promoted on the Democracy for Illinois website. Some local members pictured here:



The Tribune story last Friday on the rally also featured a picture of some of the organizers, which included Lee Goodman, who ran for congress as the Democrat candidate in the Illinois 10th district.

And if they say it is unfair to be so associated, then let them act responsibly and repudiate these groups, some of whom are openly communist, terrorist sympathizers, anti-semitic, and despicable.

Here are the endorsing groups for the day's events and the rally:

I suggest you be more careful about using the label "anti-semitic."
You can view video of Cindy Sheehan speaking outside Rahm Emanuel's office at Rahm Emanuel's War
A documentary of the pro-war movement can be viewed online at www.Pro-warriors.com
