A million or so people gathered on Washington to protest recently and were accused of -being a small, insignificant yet dangerous group of -racists, -rednecks, -and haters.

They came from all across the country, many driving themselves rather than being bused in. Most carried home-made signs protesting profligate government spending, government intrusion into their lives and the breakneck lurch to the left being led by Team Obama.

But in a more general way they were protesting a mindset. They were tired of being abused verbally, emotionally, spiritually. They were protesting a group of people who believe they are the smartest, most enlightened people in the universe and who felt entitled to run the country and make the rules, no matter what anyone said. They were protesting the denizens if this particular thread of the Volokh Conspiracy who view them as bigoted, racist, religion ridden hicks who need to be kept down for their own good, because if the foot was ever removed from their necks, blacks, Jews and every other non-Christian group would be enslaved.

Here is the mindset they were protesting:

Superiority: Jews are overwhelmingly liberal and progressive: Jews are highly educated and highly educated people tend to believe in progressive values Bias: Christian right's desire to base government policy, public school curricula, etc. on Christian religious doctrine. Hate: You have to realize that in the last couple decades, the GOP has been swallowed by the screaming nutcases we saw on display last Saturday ...

I was there and this piece has no hold on reality. No one there was contemplating Jews or any such stuff. There was less than 400,000 people there and everyone I met there was there to stop the government from taking over their lives. We had fun, but we were serious. Understand something, this was a real grass roots effort and they only work if the roots keep growing. You, and, I mean YOU, must now get involved, if you don’t it will fall apart. For my part, I will give it my life for four years, after that, you are on your own. I mean this, at some point, I must look after my own life - socialist or not.

Please go the the link for the original article and then follow that link to Volokh. I was not picking on Jews although the formatting on my post made it appear so. I was quoting comments from the respected website The Volokh Conspiracy which is run by law professors. I apologize that my excerpt can be misinterpreted.
