I have always defended secular Jews with no Jewish education (which is the case with nearly 100% of them), because they do not have the intellectual tools to make objective judgments about Jewish issues.

Other conservatives used to argue with me about this passionately. He is scum. It has been obvious, or should have been to everyone else, for years. Mark Levin is the opposite, he is a man of integrity. He is passionately pro-Jewish, understands the political world better than most people, and sincerely defends his positions (intellectually). I don’t always agree, but I know that any position he takes will be consistently intellectually honest. Rare today in politics.
