Big Conservative Event to Take Place on Rosh Hashanah

Last week venerable conservative Norman Podhoretz wondered why Jews in America were "misguidedly loyal" to liberalism, when conservatism was so welcoming to the Chosen People. This led to endless debates and a pleasing irony: the arch-conservative Family Research Council, which also likes to brag on its solidarity with Israel and the Jewish People, has scheduled its annual Values Voters Summit in Washington to coincide with Rosh Hashanah, which starts on sundown of their opening day. Sandy Koufax would never have stood for it! The Summit will include such speakers as Congressnut Michele Bachmann and former Miss California Carrie Prejean, on whom Michael Musto and Dan Savage recently extemporized.
