[Ronnie]

Whoa, I'm surprised.  I'm disappointed in my Jewish brethren.

[Verily]

Whoa, I'm surprised.  I'm disappointed in my Jewish brethren.

Kerry and Gore won around 75% of Jews, too. Old news.

The news is that he's apparently consolidated their support.

Yes, not too much of a change.

True. I was commenting on Ronnie's surprise, not the numbers themselves. They're very good for Obama, all things considered.

Yeah, but there were some signs earlier that McCain could have performed relatively well with Jews.  I guess not anymore.

Jews I think have been bad for our country, but  they are going for Obama it seems so iam not going to fuss.

Uh...?

Wth.  Tell me you aren't serious.

Great, another kook.

[MR maverick]

Sorry if that came off a little too strong.

I didn't mean it in a hateful way just my political view on that group.

Hey man...come on now...you cant blame a few Jews here and there not wanting to vote for the schvartzah.  lol.

[Alcon]

Sorry if that came off a little too strong.

I think it would probably be best to separate "I think zionism is bad" from "I think the Jews being here is bad," just because they may be more likely to support zionism.

Replace it with any other minority and welfare, and I think you'll understand.

Edit: ...if that's what you're talking about.

I'll make sure not to stop in South Carolina the next time I'm driving to Disney World.

[MR maverick]

Iam not backing off my OP on that group, and its a fair one  that some or most of you might disagree with.

South Carolina is pretty good place to live .. yeah racial attitudes might not be all that great.
But atleast they don't hide it until elections like PA.  Don't bash my state when yours will be actually deciding the election based on race.

I don't think we're demanding you back off of it.  I think not explaining it beyond "I'd rather x ethnic group have never been here" makes you sound extremely antisemitic, especially when you could have said "I object to y ideal that seems to be commonly held by x group."

What's wrong with young Jews? Methinks their grandparents need to give them a stern talking to about voting for Democrats.

[TheGlobalizer]

Of course Jews are bad.  They killed Jesus, remember?

:rolleyes:

Interesting to note that McCain does better with younger Jews than older ones.

Thats my point they continue to show bad judgement.

That doesn't make sense.  They show bad judgment because they regress toward the national mean as they lose ethnic identity?  whatever, man.

Are you going to explain your comments or no?
