- Oh, and speaking of which, Sarah Palin simply cannot stop lying about things to serve her political interests. Palin 2012! (The Plum Line)
- FOX News uses fraudulent polls, according to Bill O’Reilly and Karl Rove. FOX = ACORN?!?!?! (Daily Kos)

Simple Answers to Stupid Questions
Commentary’s Jennifer Rubin asks “Why Jews Hate Palin” and then answers her own question:
As recent polling by Gallup amply demonstrates, Jews remain the most Democratic of any religious group (66 percent of Jews say they are Democrats or lean Democratic, compared with only 47 percent of Catholics, 43 percent of Protestants, and 20 percent of Mormons) and the most supportive of President Obama. Only African-Americans demonstrated a higher percentage of support (95 percent) for Obama’s candidacy and have remained comparably loyal. While there is a range of opinion within the Jewish community, as revealed by an AJC 2009 poll—which showed that majorities of Conservative and Reform Jews approved of the Obama administration’s handling of U.S.-Israel relations, while only 14 percent of Orthodox Jews did—only 16 percent of Jews now identify themselves as Republican.
This has been another edition of simple answers to stupid questions.
