Seven Jewish US Senators who have not endorsed any candidate all came together to defend Barack Obama from attacks being circulated by email. In an open letter to the Jewish Community, the Senators called the attacks on Obama "despicable and fictitious" among other things.
On the letterhead of Sen. Carl Levin, they explained, "Jews, who have historically been the target of such attacks, should be the first to reject such tactics."
Read the whole letter.
Participating Senators:
Sen. Carl Levin (Michigan)
Sen. Barbara Boxer (California)
Sen. Ben Cardin (Maryland)
Sen. Russ Feingold (Wisconsin)
Sen. Frank Lautenberg (New Jersey)
Sen. Bernie Sanders (Vermont)
