That's not surprising; it doesn't get much press. Jim Moran and Cynthia McKinney come immediately to mind. Also, the liberal/Progressive wing is generally very, very anti-Semitic. Or, as they'll state it, "anti-Zionist."

Here's a little background:
Liberal Anti-Semitism

Keep in mind that the line really is blurry between anti-Semitism and anti-Zionism; they overlap heavily and are often synonymous. Even the Commission on Civil Rights has recognized that (I think...it was a former chair/director, IIRC.)
Yes I keep it in mind but there is a big difference between between anti-semitism and anti-zionism.

And when you state "the liberal/Progressive wing is generally very, very anti-Semitic", many on that wing are yids. Some of the most prominent Communists, Socialists, Marxists, and every other bad 'ist' were/are Jewish. I just don't see how you can make a claim that the Democratic party is anti-semitic in general.
