The Literary Legacy of David Storobin (Part One)

As I noted the other day, most of the voluminous literary legacy of likely GOP State Senate candidate, Kings County Republican Vice Chair David Storobin, mysteriously disappeared from the web almost immediately after I revealed I’d been exploring it and intended to deeply parse its mysteries.

Once mostly confined to a single website, the writings of Storobin are now scattered to the winds, and must be searched out individually on places like white supremacist hate sites.

Another exploration for another day.

Luckily, there is one motherload of the sayings of Vice Chairman Storobin which survives, at least at the present moment.

It is a truly lovely portrait of Storobin’s semi-paranoiac xenophobic world view, his Red-baiting and Nazi-baiting of those who disagree with him, as well as a cautionary tale about the dangers of epistemic closure.   

Herewith, an annotated study of the Facebook ravings of David Storobin. 

 

DAVID STOROBIN ON POLITICAL CIVILTY:

·         David Storobin: Why does the Barack Obama administration insist on calling their peaceful political opponents "terrorists" and "hostage takers"? There are a lot of liberals with whom I disagree who are my friends and relatives and whom I like regardless of their politics. Why does Obama think it's necessary to vilify his opponents? 
GATE COMMENT: Really? Here are some examples to the contrary: 
DaDavid Storobin shared Russian Jews's photo. ..::ADMINS ART EXPO::..  Russian Jews

David Storobin: This is not an ideological issue. Democrats outside of New York City don't get arrested this much. But NYC Dem politicians are like a fraud syndicate. No person who is aware of facts can deny that "our" Dems are far more corrupt than either Republicans or Democrats in any other city

·        
·        David Storobin: Wall Street Occupiers admit that when they say 99% should take money from 1%, at least some of that means confiscating Jewish property. Hitler would be proud of them. Anti-Semitism tainting Occupy Wall Street protests www.ynetnews.com

 

David Storobin So it is the cops who make the Leftists walk into the local small businesses, such as restaurants, and defecate in the sink, on the floor and on the walls?

DAVID STOROBIN ON LGTB RIGHTS:

·         David Storobin: If Torah forbids Jews to vote for Weprin for supporting gay marriage, what about Lew Fidler, who was the #1 front-man for the Gay Lobby in the New York City Council? Torah law forbids you from voting for David Weprin www.thebrooklynpolitics.com

 

David Storobin: If David Weprin is so opposed for merely voting in favor of gay marriage, just how much opposition will there be against Lew Fidler, City Council's #1 champion of the Gay Lobby?

·          

·         David Storobin: This is my interview on the Brooklyn TV Channel's "Intersect" show. Also look for me on CBS and NY1 news. Intersect Eps. 33: Marriage Equality – Intersect on blip.tv

GATE COMMENT: In the interview, Storobin compares elected legislators enacting same sex marriage to totalitarianism in North Korea, and as well as under Stalin and the Nazis (BTW, where did the moderator get that haircut?). 

Incidentally, though Storobin doesn’t approve of Sodomy, he’s perfectly fine with Onanism:

·        David Storobin: Thank you, Nassau YRs! Carl Krueger is Old and Busted, David Storobin is the New Hotness johnbrodigan.com

STOROBIN’S FAVORITE LIBERAL BLOGGER:

·         David Storobin: In 2006, Democratic Congressional candidates took 87% of the Jewish vote; in 2008, Barack Obama took 78%; in 2010, Dems took 61% of the Jewish vote for Congress. The biggest difference is that young Jews are more conservative, and two major Jewish groups, the Russians and the Orthodox are leaving the Democratic party en masse.

John Lisyanskiy:  Someone would say "false advertisement" !!! Hope all is well David!

Judy Pepenella: David, I like your math statistics. Let's pray they do not forget all this man has done when it comes time to vote.

David Storobin: John, I got the first part from the liberal blogger Gatemouth and the second part from reviewing voter registration. I looked at a few random EDs in Borough Park and democratic/republican registration was very close among young people. I also saw several news reports that young Jews are voting more conservative. You should look at how the Russians voted. Brighton was won almost 2:1 by Susan Kone against the powerful incumbent Nadler. It was not an exception, it was the rule there. Bush, Mccain, Bloomberg, Giuliani and others had massive wins there.

DAVID STOROBIN’s FAVORITE PRESIDENTIAL PROSPECT:

David Storobin: In the 1970s, Herman Cain took over 400 Burger King's franchises in Philadelphia, which was the least profitable area. Under his leadership, it became the most profitable area. Then in the 1980s, he became the CEO of Godfather's Pizza, which was losing money. Within 14 months, it became highly profitable. Sounds like the right experience to be President!

·         David Storobin: Presidential candidate Herman Cain told Neil Cavuto that "the President threw Israel under the bus." Once again, a successful understands what career politicians fail to grasp.

   

David Storobin: I liked Herman Cain from the first time I saw him at the FoxNews debate. Very likeable personality, intelligent and has common sense. And I will take a businessman over a politician any day of the week.

·          

·         DAVID STOROBIN’S OBSESSION WITH NOT CREDITING THE PRESIDENT FOR ACTIONS STOROBIN SUPPORTS:

 

David Storobin: "Today, at my direction, the United States launched a targeted operation against that compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan," the president said… Was it really important to take credit openly?

GATE COMMENT: I thought conservatives were all for accountability and people taking responsibility for their actions.

·         David Storobin: Obama throwing Israel under the bus by telling it to go back to what for many years has been known as "The Auschwitz Borders" is yet another case of Jew Sacrifice at the alter of oil interests, just like in 1991 when Israel was not allowed to respond to Saddam's Scud attacks. Obama killed bin Laden, damaging his popularity in the Mideast, so he decided to restore it by sacrificing Israel.

GATE COMMENT:  It is nice that Storobin finally sees fit here to give the President credit for killing Bin Laden, but just to be clear, the President who in 1991, “Sacrifice[d Israel] at the alter of oil interests” by “not allow[ing them] to respond to Saddam's Scud attacks” was  George Bush-41.

This apparently did not bother Storobin, then or now, since he published a childhood photo of himself in 1992 campaigning for the man who threw Israel under the scud-bus:

 David Storobin (with picture): Campaigning for George Bush-41 in 1992. A sign, a button on my jacket and another button on my shirt – I did my part in 1992. Did you? Yes, that's me holding the Bush/Quayle sign.

GATE COMMENT: Incidentally, Storobin is still celebrating President Obama’s accomplishments, even as he refused to credit him. 

 David Storobin: #3 guy in al-Qaida killed. Al Qaeda Chief in Pakistan Killed abcnews.go.com

 

STOROBIN ON THE HOTEL TAX:  

GATE COMMENT: The hotel tax is most notable for being paid for almost entirely by people who don’t live in New York City, or by people violating the halachic prohibition against fornication. It was up for renewal, and since it had obviously not hurt our booming tourist trade, extending it seemed a no-brainer, so naturally those with no brains were opposed.

·         David Storobin via Storobin for Senate: Councilman Lew Fidler is looking to raise New York City taxes. Lew Fidler urges a vote to continue the hotel tax www.thebrooklynpolitics.com

Colin Campbell: "keep them high" could perhaps be a more charitable interpretation

David Storobin   As of November, the taxes were supposed to be a certain percentage as per the original law. He wants to these taxes higher than they are scheduled to be. Seems like a tax hike to me. But either way, the solution to budgetary problems is never to cut waste or crack down on fraud. Once a government program is introduced, it becomes
