Wow! Hakoras Hatov?

We were pleasantly surprised to see the outpouring of Hakoras Hatov (from the ruling class) to Reb Shlomie Kohn (of LC/BF fame). We thought Reb Shneur Zatzal, took that virtrue with him. We guess there are exceptions. Some saner minds decided to grab Reb Shlomeh & take him back to his hometown, before he gets too deeply involved.

Lakewood suporters of the Clintons-update

It sure looks that the Clintons are at odds with the Obamas, big time. The office of Sec'y of State will become vacant by a resignation. Then the Clinton's will do a lot of public speaking on one side & Palin on the other side. Everyone will be focusing on the Obama's Socialism, etc.

2012- Clinton V. Palin

No political race in sight, but Hillary Clinton's camp is election-ready

Yated's Pidyun Shivuim ?

The Yated is spearheading a campaign and trying to raise funds they claim for Pidyun Shivuim of Shalom Rubashkin. (Mail to 53 Olympia in Monsey, NY).

With a thank you to Sholom Rubashkin-What kind of Pidyon Shivoium? he isn't in jail. There are so many others lingering in jails, what about a pidyun shivoium for them?

Why don't they raise funds for the Bochurim in Japan?

What did the Yated's editor/owner learn from his interview with Rush Limbaugh?

The Yated ran numerous advertisements, ads, articles etc for Rubashkin's Arons, AGRI, etc with promises of some sort of payment, which never materialized.

So the next best is to run a Pidyun Shivuim campaign for Shalom Rubashkin, now there is funds in the Yated account.

Lubavitch is also raising funds for the same cause, did he get educated at his Pesach Lubavitch retreat?
