There seems to be a myth out there among fundentalist christians that there is a thing called judaic christian values. As if Jews and Christians share some kind of principals or values. Maybe so in some areas( such as support for Israel), but not so in the poltical arena. At one count 11 jewish US senators, all being very pro abortion, pro homosexuality, anti prayer in school.(Boxer-CA,Feinstein-CA,Levin-MI, Wellstone-MN, Schumer-NY,Wyden-OR,Kohl-WI,Feingold-WI,Lieberman-CT,Lautenberg-NJ, and Specter-PA) On the house side, we find some of the most anti-christian "family values" congressmen such as homo Barney Frank and Bernie Sanders who is (i believe) offically a socialist, both being Jewish. Are there Pro life pro family values Jews in public service? If so, not many!! As I remember, former Governor Kirk Fordice got in some hot water becouse he spoke of our nation being founded on CHRISTIAN values, not judo-chritian. It would seem that he made a good point!
