Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D., Fla.) is scheduled to appear in a Philadelphia-area synagogue Monday on behalf of the Obama for America campaign, fostering more concerns that Team Obama is engaging in a controversial and possibly illegal effort to win over Jewish voters from within their religious institutions.

Jewish Americans for Obama is slated to hold a campaign event Monday at theCongregation Keneseth Israel in Elkins Park, a Philadelphia suburb. The synagogue is affiliated with the Jewish religion’s Reform movement, which is known for itsprogressive political activism.

The event will feature Wasserman Schultz, chair of the Democratic National Committee, as well as Rep. Allyson Schwartz (D., Pa.) and Democratic County Commissioner Josh Shapiro.

According to a copy of the invitation obtained by the Free Beacon, those interested in attending are urged to RSVP to Zach Billet, an Obama campaign field organizer and former Shapiro staffer.

Keneseth Israel’s participation in an event hosted and organized by the Obama campaign appears to directly conflict with an IRS rule stating that nonprofit organizations, such as religious institutions, “are absolutely prohibited from directly or indirectly participating in, or intervening in, any political campaign on behalf of (or in opposition to) any candidate for elective public office.”

    In Obamas world no laws are being broken because there are no laws in his world….only executive order of which he can then pardon himself.

    Any religious organization on the republican side gets in trouble for this, then all they need to do is point this fund raiser out as the new guideline.

    At least the Dems had the honest STUPIDITY to misspell
    “Keneseth Israel” as “Keneseth Isreal” on the invitation.

    Soulless devisive witch. She really has a pair of balls using her Jewish heritage to appeal to anyone. She has set up some events / appearances with radical Mooselimb scumbags who would love to murder every Jewish man woman and infant on the planet to satisfy their evil cult’s commands. Does she give a shit? Nope so long as it furthers the prog Donk cause she would hold a fundraiser with Ahmadinnerjacket. That scrunt has no soul.

    While they’re stooping so low, they might as well do a fund-raiser for Rabbi Fred Neulander.

    My gawd. Any synagogue that would let her in will let anyone in. Don’t they even have minimum standards? What the hell’s wrong with those people?

    That particular synagogue has a rat infestation problem. I heard they were hoping Debbie might be able to rid the place of vermin, before having to call Terminix, as a last resort.

    When Is a Baby Not a Baby? Never!

    Some newborns emerge from their mother’s womb all scrunched-up, some scratched by forceps or by their own, delicate fingernails, all covered in amniotic goo, most with a cry, a rare few looking as if they were ready, willing, and able to take on the world.

    However they make their grand entrance, their moment of birth, all babies have one important feature in common: They have been babies for about 280 days, from the moment of conception, a fact abortionists choose to ignore in the interests of maintaining the illusion that they aren’t baby murderers.

    Among many other pro-abort liberals, DNC chairwoman Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-Fla.) has said that contending human life begins at conception is “extreme and radical,” an opinion now vividly shown to be extreme and radical, assuming human appearances are not de-facto proof of humanity.

    The truth that libs are terminating a human life has been confirmed once again in a BBC first, amazing time-lapse evidence of the development of the human face.

    See first ever still pictures and a 43 second video, as well as the first ever MRI footage of twins’ activity in the womb and another of an actual birth at http://tinyurl.com/7658l87.

    Notably but not at all surprisingly, the BBC narrator refers only to the face of an “embryo,” not to the visage of a human baby. Too much reality would probably upset the BBC audience if they came to understand abortion doesn’t simply involve the removal of a blob of tissue.

    Some blob!

    Something else neither the BBC nor the American mainstream media never feature are reports that abortionists, as liberal as they are, often engage in markedly illiberal violent assaults on pro-lifers as sick complements to their violent assaults on the pre-born.

    For example, soon after Newsweek and The Daily Beast profiled Personhood USA leaders Keith and Jennifer Mason and a Beast commenter posted . . .
