No. 5: So what if Mr. deBlasio embraces Muslims. How is that bad for Jews, frum or otherwise? Would a Mayor diBlasio negotiate on behalf of Palestinians in the current round of peace talks between Israel and representatives of the Palestinians? No, no mayor gets a seat at that table. Would he enforce alternate-side parking regulations on Shemini Atzeres? I think the City Council has that covered. Would he force men and women to sit together in frum shuls? No mayor has that power. So what, exactly, are you worried about? The only thing I can think of that might worry you is that Hashem has been generous with you, and you don’t want to give up what Hashem gave you in higher taxes. Well, if Hashem gave it to you, and a Mayor de Blasio takes it away, then Mr. deBlasio might be facing a more powerful voter than you (or me).

Yidden! don’t fall into the liberal trap. He’ll be quick to embrace Muslims and women rights, criticize religion (aside from islam of course…) and so on, while raising your taxes…

Well said Reb Think for Myself. Those should be the thoughts of all frum people in this city that aren’t polluted by city politics.

Look, DiBlasio is a jerk for not respecting that Orthodox Jews do things a certain way and do so sincerely, and he is further a jerk for attacking Lhota on those grounds. But the rest of this article is just regurgitated right wing garbage. Particularly humorous is the list of items that the author wants DiBlasio to take ownership of as a democrat- the latter handful reveal someone to be a brainwashed talk radio fan, and the former show historical ignorance.
