Jewish Clergy Group: Elena Kagan Isn't æKosherÆ to Serve on Supreme
Court

CNSNews.com) û Supreme Court nominee Elena Kagan is ônot kosherö --
meaning she is not fit to serve on the court -- according to more than
850 Orthodox members of the Rabbinical Alliance of America. That's the
term the rabbis used about Kagan in a press release issued Thursday,
saying "Elena Kagan is not kosher. She is not fit to sit on this Court --
or any court."

Rabbi Yehuda Levin, spokesman for the alliance, told CNSNews.com on
Thursday that "a great deal has been made about the fact that she would
be the second Jewish woman on the court, and we want to signal to people across the country that we take no pride in this.ö

Levin said most people are happy when "one of their own" is nominated to
such a high position. But, he added, "We feel that Elena Kagan turns traditional Judaism on its head û from a concept of a nation of priests
and holy people, she is turning it into, æLetÆs homosexualize every
segment of society. And by the way, partial-birth babies have no right
to be delivered.Æ"

In a statement issued Thursday, the rabbinical alliance called on the
Senate Judiciary Committee to refuse to confirm Kagan to succeed the
outgoing Justice John Paul Stevens.

ôIt is clear from Ms. Kagan's record on issues such as abortion-on-
demand, partial-birth-abortion, the radical homosexual and lesbian
agenda, the "supremacy" of the anti-family panoply over religious
liberties of biblical adherents, et. al., that she will function as a flame-throwing radical, hastening society's already steep decline into
Sodom and Gomorrah,ö the rabbis said in the statement.

Levin told CNSNews.com that his fellow rabbis û and hundreds of
thousands of Orthodox and traditional Jews û are puzzled at the
presidentÆs choice of Kagan.

ôWhat exactly was Obama thinking, President Obama thinking, when he
nominated Kagan? Because eventually, down the road, someone -- or some
group -- is going to ætake the hitÆ for the crazy decisions that Kagan
is bound to make. So we would have much preferred if President Obama had
given this ædistinctionÆ to another minority group, instead of singling
out the Jews.ö

Barring a rebuff from the Senate Judiciary Committee, Levin told
CNSNews.com that the rabbis want someone in the Senate to launch a
filibuster to stop Kagan's nomination from coming to a vote.

æWeÆre waiting for the more courageous, decent senators û whether itÆs a (Sen.) Jim DeMint (R-S.C.) or a (Sen.) Tom Coburn (R-Okla.) or a (Sen.)
Jeff Sessions (R-Ala.) û weÆre looking for them to stand up and
filibuster this embarrassing endangerment of a nomination,ö Levin said.

Confirmation hearings for Kagan begin Monday at the Senate Judiciary Committee. Neither Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) nor Sen. Russ
Feingold (D-Wis.) -- both members of the committee, known Kagan
supporters and top Jewish members of the Senate -- responded to calls
for comment on this story.
