It seems to me that the right wing's Hitler comparisons of Obama, and Nazi's and death panels, warrant a harsh rebuke from a Rabbi. What gives?

1. There have been a couple of posts today
in which the OP describes how their rabbi did exactly that.

2. There isn't as much heirarchy in the Jewish religon. Many rabbis could be discussing this
in their own temples. The hitler comparisons comes from the right and from the left. It's nothing new.

6. I don't think it would matter to those with deaf ears
(meaning the wack jobs including Rush and Beck). Yes, they should denounce it, but you aren't going to change anyone's closemindedness by doing so.

9. I mean in a very public way
Perhaps en masse. And the statement is not to change the hearts of the haters. That will never happen. I mean to be a witness to those that would look upon the situation and understand.

11. really? evidence for that, or did you pull it out of your butt?
Edited on Sun Sep-20-09 01:10 PM by cali
Jews overwhelmingly support Obama. 78% voted for him. Do you have some evidence that shows that Rabbis are different from the rest of the Jewish American voting population? Oh, and your photos are evidence of nothing that you claim, sweeetie.

Dog, I hate the kind of dogshit you just posted.
