  3. We have a Gadol in our midst. Why are we running to imports? Come Lchazeik U’Lhischazeik with our own Rav Eliyhaou Levin Shlita, and the Kollel Yungerleit at Bais Medrash Kol Aryeh Chanukah Mesiba tonight. For those of you new to Lakewood Rav Levin is a link to the values of the previous generation. A talmid of Rav Elya Lopian ztl, Rav Shach ztl, and Rev Berel Soloveitchik ztl. To the world he is famous as the driving force behind the heter for the Cantor Fiitzgerald agunot of 9/11 to remarry; to Lakewood he is the man who spent a shabbos in Cheesequake rather than be mechalel Shabbos. Rav Levin is an original; a man of great intellect and unimpeachable integrity. On Zos Chanukah when we lain of the dedication of the Mizbeach let us dedicate ourselves with the real thing.

    1. Nobody is coming crying to you, BH. We will have a President who is a mature adult, instead of a crybaby loser, who will follow the science and decide what is best for the country according to that.
      But when you are accusing others of being sheep, remember that believing articles in the Yated is equally sheeplike behavior. In fact, seeing as people in Lakewood don't have TVs, it is more likely that the trump supporters are the sheep than the biden supporters. There is no Charedi literature pushing Biden's side, yet some people see through the mainstream charedi media's shameless partisanship

    2. HOW IN THE WORLD DOES A "FRUM YID" SUPPORT BIDEN?
      SO SAD - HOW MUCH TIME DO YOU SPEND LISTENING TO DON LEMON?
      BTW FIGHTING FRAUD IS NOT A SORE LOSER ITS A PROUD COURAGEOUS WINNER
      BTW I DONT READ THE YATED OR ANY "FRUM" PAPERS- BUT YOU SHOULD AS A START
      WE CAN MOVE ON TO CHUMASH NEXT BUT AS A BEGINER YOU SHOULD START WITH YATED

    3. Biden is a great guy for this job. He has the experience necessary to understand the issues at hand, and he is not know to let his middos to get in the way of doing a good job. He will listen to the experts, as best as possible, and will run the country for the benefit of as many people as possible.
      He isn't perfect, and he isn't a Tzadik. But we were never looking for a perfect Tzadik, and that anyway was not an option over here.
      I learn Chumash, and next week's Sedra might make you into a socialist. Careful.

    4. Trump isn't fighting, he is whining like a loser. He isn't doing anything but moan, beg for money from his sheeple, and whine some more. He hasn't done a thing since losing the election, except tweeting about how unfair boohoo it is.
      Give him a lollipop and buy him a new stuffed tiger.

    5. Absolutely ridiculous that someone from any religion, or race, or profession for that matter, has to be in one party or another. Are you some kind of foreigner?

      We AMERICANS do not mix religion and politics. If fact, more than anything else influencing our vote, is how our great-grandparents, grandparents and parents voted. Studies show that two-thirds of American belong to the party of their parents.

      We have a two party system in which parties only care about getting their candidates elected, not getting policies implemented. It is the individual candidate that takes positions, and even then, they usually go with the flow. In foreign lands each religion, profession and race has its own party.

      HOW DARE YOU SAY I HAVE TO VOTE A CERTAIN WAY?

      Maybe you should look at ch"m 163 before telling a taxpayer how to vote. The power of the purse is what brought about the concept of the liberal republic of today (US, Britain and just about any other country) and taxpayers have a right to decide how their money will be spent and for what policies.

  10. So who decides who is a gadol. In my days it was the yated. Now it's anonymous commenters on hefkervelt?

    1. Once again, some anonymous person on the internet is claiming things without evidence.
      First they claimed, without evidence, that Trump colluded with Russia.
      Then they claimed, without evidence, that Trump obstructed justice.
      Then they claimed, without evidence, that Trump had an imperfect phone call with Ukraine.
      Then they claimed without evidence that Trump lost the election.
      Now they'll say, without evidence that the Yated decides who is a gadol.

      Stop with all these claims without evidence!
