Of course now given how he has revealed his true intentions, I tear them a new one by showing how Obama despises Israel and is working with her Muslim enemies to dismantle her. I remind them that it is MUSLIM fundamentalists who cut Jews' heads off, not Christian ones, who strongly support Israel. I remind them of his repulsive Cairo speech. I point out all the Arabs and anti-Semites who surrounded him his whole life, and how he is one of them, and they don't want to talk about it.
The good news? They no longer try and defend Hussein. I get pursed lips and a constipate look when I bring him up. They know he is a scumbag. But they STILL hate Palin! I can only conclude that Michael Savage is right: Liberalism is a mental disorder.
Certainly, it was perverse to hold the Jews responsible for the death of Jesus.
It is equally perverse to blame all Christians for the few who held this view.
Those who know bigotry up close and personal should not themselves practice bigotry.
I truly believe it is. Or at least, malignant immaturity.
Same applies to my own family members who voted for the loser.
PS... Remind them also that Obama constantly refers to the Israeli settlements as "the occupation" on more than one occasion. One of the most recent was at the UN last spring. It is the terrorists who use the phrase "the occupation" to describe Israelis, not an American President.
This is why I maintain the belief that Obama has more in common with Black September than the American people.
“I am Jewish and I have been having knock down drag out arguments with my stupid relatives about Palin for over a year now.”
Incredible, isn’t it? Most American secular Jews would prefer those who overtly promise to destroy them over the much-feared “Christian Fundamentalists” about whom they know nothing but their own bigoted, yes, bigoted prejudices. That a group of Christians could possibly be more fervent supporters of Israel is absolutely a mental bridge too far for them.
I have argued repeatedy with my folks over this exact point. Their reply: Fundamentalists may be supporters of Israel but they are supporting Israel “for the wrong reasons”. OK, then, guess you’d prefer to have your throat cut and your people exterminated?
How do your relatives feel about Mike Huckabee?
I noticed liberal Jews hate Bush, Cheney, and Palin with passion. But think Huckabee is a likeable guy. Yet Huckabee is Baptist Preacher who supports school prayer. Go figure.
