As a Jew! She just makes me sick.. Orly Taitz is a close second...At one point in History, we would have prevented these type of morons from appearing at such functions.. We would have been on the lines
similar to our support for the Integration Movement...

in fact i'm pretty sure no matter which religion these people were raised in they would still be extremists but just of that other religion.

(8,515 posts)You are beginning to bore me.. I made a simple statement which wasnt meant to offend anyone
of the Jewish Faith.. Obviously you think its offensive for some stupid reason.. Yea ,I think of Jews are a
symbol of Tribal Society.. Is this enough?

(26,060 posts)and I think it comes from the very real hazard of so many people "blaming Jews" when someone like Geller or Sheldon Adelson opens their disgusting mouths - I saw it right here on this board before the election. But I truly believe the 70% of us who vote for the Democratic candidate for President is a much louder voice than Geller, Adelson or any other right wing hack that happens to be Jewish.

(92,488 posts)Jews are liberal and Democratic,
Just like Herman Cain or Clarence Thomas, does not represent the mainstream African American view

(92,488 posts)points. I am pointing out that she is not a mainstream view in the Jewish community.
Oh, and by the way, you cannot group all Jews together as you are doing. Does that mean if someone in the world does something bad, we should all be ashamed of that persons activities because we are all human? ridiculous
incidentally, I am Jewish
busterbrown
(8,515 posts)Im jus so not use to her type of behavior coming from the likes of us..
And your all correct in stating that there are many out there who would make try to take this issue in another direction..
By the way and I think many would agree, sometimes I am ashamed of the human race..

(26,060 posts)disgusting racism she endorses, you have nothing to be ashamed of. We Jews show what we're made up when 70% of us vote for Democrats every 4 years. Other than African Americans, we're the most loyal block of voters Democrats have. That's something to take pride in.

(8,515 posts)Weve gone through this crap earlier...While Bush and Cheney practically destroyed Iraq.. That didnt make you feel ashamed of our Country? I certainly felt that way.

(26,060 posts)I thought you were trying to make a point - it was my mistake to try and engage you on an adult level.
busterbrown
(8,515 posts)And you feel because of how I stated my position using the word ashamed makes this" discussion not on an" adult level..You must have a very high opinion of yourself. It also seems Im the only one who uses the word ashamed on this thread.
