Probably. Is she the one who keeps screaming, ‘i hate Republicans?”

[Alouette]

Is she the one who keeps screaming, ‘i hate Republicans?”

Well, usually she specifies, "I hate Bush! I hate Cheney! I hate Fox News!"

[Senator Goldwater]

When I try to speak to my Jewish neighbors about this, they just start screaming how the “hate Republicans.” I ask why, and they never can come up with any kind of a logical answer.

---

The evangelicals scare the hell out of them because they think they want to wipe out Judaism through conversion to Christianity.

But as I’ve pointed out to some of my Jewish friends, the hate-mongers in the black church want them dead.

There is a difference.

[Mr. Mojo]

You wouldn't believe how anit-semitic the Left really is. However, most Jews are so used to voting Democrat, that they seem to have blinders on. When I point things like this out to my Jewish neighbors, they turn a deaf ear to it.

That's because they've been brainwashed to believe the GOP = the political right = fascism = Nazis/Hitler. So essentially, Republicans = Nazis. And there's little you can say to change their minds; they have to figure things out on their own. Fortunately the further we get away from the generation that reflexively equated the Right with Nazism the higher the liklihood of that happening.

Before that she used to scream, “I hate Nixon, I hate Reagan.”

[societygirl]

The evangelicals are the ones in the GOP who SUPPORT Israel. I tell my Jewish neighbors that these other people want them dead, and they don't believe it. Some of my neighbors just DESPISE white Christians so much, that they are blinded by it. I tell them WE don't want to kill them, but these idiots think we DO. Well, I have never thought of killing any of my Jewish neighbors... even when they are partying at 3 am in the morning, lol.

But their new bogeymen are Reagan and Bush. Brainwashed indeed. I tell them that if Bush really WRRE a Nazi that they would be DEAD. They are much likely to be killed by one of their own LW nuts, who hate them.

Why?

[Mr. Ion]

There is nothing amazing about people voting for candidates with whom they agree on social issues.

[societygirl]

I have no idea. When I ask them about it they just freak. The mention the Holocaust, among other things. Who knows?

[Mr. Mojo]

Your neighbors sound like quite an uptight group. I’ve known too many liberal/Democrat Jews to count (being Jewish myself), and I can’t think of any who “despised” Christians, evangelical or otherwise. ....although a few may have been a bit wary of their unqualified support for Israel. But other than that minor detail, no unease whatsoever.

[societygirl]

It's because I live around people in the movie industry. They tend to be out of it anyway, but I have never seen such irrational hatred in my life. The Jewish people I meet out of LA are MUCH different, as are some in the San Fernando Valley.

[Mr. Mojo]

That's where I lived (most of) the first 36 years of my life -- smack dab in the middle of the most liberal Jewish 'hood in L.A. ...or anywhere else, for that matter. (Sunset and Foothill in BH). Sure there were a lot of liberal loons, but I never came across any Christian-hating. The only thing (very occasionally) noticable, as I mentioned above, was a bit of wariness about certain Christians whose main focus was Israel and the End Times. Nothing even close to hatred, though.

However, I did see a bit of disdain for the Iranians who came to town in droves right after the Iranian revolution in '79. ...Iranian Jews.

I'll try to understand that thought, but there are many other areas of a political platform that go beyond social issues.

The Catholic Church has a huge organization that supports social issues around the world. It's probably one of he most funded ministries in the USA.

I'd rather donate my money to organizations I believe will truly assist those in need as opposed to giving the Government my tax dollar to spend on social issues which they decide are right.

[societygirl]

Times have changed. It was Reagan that first freaked them out, and it’s gotten steadily worse. The left had much more power before him. Now the movie industry is filled with people who hate their own country. If you even mention God or patriotism to them the flip out.

I'll match you this photo of a Hillary supporter with your photo of a Barak supporter.
