Jewish Clergy Group: Elena Kagan Isn't ‘Kosher’ to Serve on Supreme 
Court 
Friday, June 25, 2010

CNSNews.com) – Supreme Court nominee Elena Kagan is “not kosher” -- 
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.” 
 
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 – from a concept of a nation of priests 
and holy people, she is turning it into, ‘Let’s homosexualize every 
segment of society. And by the way, partial-birth babies have no right 
to be delivered.’"
 
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.
 
“It 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,” the rabbis said in the statement.
 
Levin told CNSNews.com that his fellow rabbis – and hundreds of 
thousands of Orthodox and traditional Jews – are puzzled at the 
president’s choice of Kagan.
 
“What exactly was Obama thinking, President Obama thinking, when he 
nominated Kagan? Because eventually, down the road, someone -- or some 
group -- is going to ‘take the hit’ for the crazy decisions that Kagan 
is bound to make. So we would have much preferred if President Obama had 
given this ‘distinction’ to another minority group, instead of singling 
out the Jews.”
 
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. 
 
‘We’re waiting for the more courageous, decent senators – whether it’s a 
(Sen.) Jim DeMint (R-S.C.) or a (Sen.) Tom Coburn (R-Okla.) or a (Sen.) 
Jeff Sessions (R-Ala.) – we’re looking for them to stand up and 
filibuster this embarrassing endangerment of a nomination,” 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.
