  Jewish Clergy Group: Elena Kagan Isn't ÇKosherÇ to Serve on Supreme  
  Court  
  Friday, June 25, 2010  
  By Pete Winn, Senior Writer/Editor  
    
    
  CNSNews.com) Ç Supreme Court nominee Elena Kagan is Çnot kosherÇ --  
  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.Ç  
    
  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 Ç from a concept of a nation of priests  
  and holy people, she is turning it into, ÇLetÇs homosexualize every  
  segment of society. And by the way, partial-birth babies have no right  
  to be delivered.Ç"  
    
  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.  
    
  ÇIt 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,Ç the rabbis said in the statement.  
    
  Levin told CNSNews.com that his fellow rabbis Ç and hundreds of  
  thousands of Orthodox and traditional Jews Ç are puzzled at the  
  presidentÇs choice of Kagan.  
    
  ÇWhat exactly was Obama thinking, President Obama thinking, when he  
  nominated Kagan? Because eventually, down the road, someone -- or some  
  group -- is going to Çtake the hitÇ for the crazy decisions that Kagan  
  is bound to make. So we would have much preferred if President Obama had  
  given this ÇdistinctionÇ to another minority group, instead of singling  
  out the Jews.Ç  
    
  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.  
    
  ÇWeÇre waiting for the more courageous, decent senators Ç whether itÇs a  
  (Sen.) Jim DeMint (R-S.C.) or a (Sen.) Tom Coburn (R-Okla.) or a (Sen.)  
  Jeff Sessions (R-Ala.) Ç weÇre looking for them to stand up and  
  filibuster this embarrassing endangerment of a nomination,Ç 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.
