What percentage of US senate and congress are jewish?

Question

I have seen one answer that puts this percentage as high as 60%. Is this true?

Its just a simple question to (hopefully) correct some perceptions.

For those who have taken offense, I thought there was supposed to be a separation of "church" and state but I see nothing wrong IF the personal beliefs reflect that of the population. eg. are there any Muslim ones?

Answer 1

The correct answer after a bit of research is 25%. It is high considering the percentage of population there.

Answer 2

I don't think it matters really, however what does matter is in a situation such as that taking place in Iraq. Ask your self if Rumpfeld (sorry if spelling is wrong), Kissinger and other Jewish advisers are the best people to advise the president as to the way forward in matters of foreign policy in countries where there is a clear conflict of interest i.e the Jewish advisers will be looking after Jewish interest above all else so where does this leave the Arabs who hate the Jews. Do the Arabs have a right to exist? Do the Arabs have a right to fight back against foreign invaders and sought out there own internal problems the same way the US and Europe have. We all accept that Israel has a right to exist but we must accept the Arabs rights to. You must remember the conflict between Jew and Arab is a consequence of the Jewish community stealing the Arabs land in the first place.
How would the us react if the rest of the world were to physically take half of America and give it back to the Red Indians. I can just see all you Americans lying down and taking it. Like hell you would.

Answer 3

Absolutely NOT. The people that claim things like that are A) idiots, since a simple headcount determines that it isn't true, and B) the same people who like to believe that Jews control the media. Funny! Right now, there are 11 Jewish Senators. Thats 11% of the Senate. VERY small percentage. As for the House, there are 25 Jewish Representatives, thats out of a total of 435, I'll let you do the math. We're talking about a VERY small percentage, again. In addition to that small number, Jews in Congress haven't formed a caucus (unlike blacks or women,) don't all belong to the same party (my own representative, Eric Cantor, is a Jewish Republican,) and are divided on almost every issue with the exception of our relationship to Israel.

Answer 4

Not nearly that high. I think who ever told you that got the decimal point too far right. What difference does it make? The ACLU won't allow any connection between the church and state. If the precentage was as high as you say it is. They would have probably rose up and over thrown the Supreme Courts decision of kicking the Ten Commandments out of public buildings.

Answer 5

not nearly 60%. PALEEZE that makes no sense.
It might be something like 15%---If that!

Cheney, Bush, Rice, Are they? Most of the congressmen and senators off the top of my head are Christian.

I have to say though, I am glad that we have an alliance with the Jews, at least they are the sane ones.
They must do something right, because they are always the most successful and everyone knows it.

Answer 6

I would like to ask you too:
What percentage of US senate and congress are French, Italian, English?
Are Jewish in America not Americans anymore?

Answer 7

Please study and answer easily, George Soros, sponsored "pass on. ORG" and "Media concerns". George is from Hungary, so which you do no longer take undertaking with the Democrats using foreign places money to help and physique their ideals. Why then might you help a sketchy study which says the Republicans are being funded by way of foreign places supplies?

Answer 8

It doesn't matter. Of more importance is who controls the largest percentage of the money that controls the legislative bodies. The Federal Reserve bank is not a federal government organization. The government borrows from this privately owned entity. Who controls this bank?

A similar situation exists in England. Their version of the Federal Reserve Bank is the Crown which is a separate entity and monarch with its own jurisdiction. The Crown decides whether or not to give money to Parliament for their projects and has been known to make loans to governments in rebellion. The Crown has investments in foreign oil and has supported Blair in his war efforts. Who controls the Crown?

Answer 9

Do you desire to know one of the reasons common Law of attractionproduct does not work for so many people?Think about it like a diet plan. If you desire to drop weight and you work hard to lose it

Answer 10

Never mind if they are Jewish, you should be asking how many are devil worshippers, and do they put goats blood on their cornflakes in the morning? Id say thats more likely, especially in the bush household.
