The blog i quoted said the book Glen Beck was handing out had a anti-semetic bent to it.

Maybe things are getting ugly on the right in a way that has some Jewish conservatives feeling a little uncomfortable?


I think you may have hit on something. Aside from the racial slurs directed at Obama.......the latest one at a tea party today accusing him of being a shoeshine boy, there have been comments about the Jews.....ranging from the revolt against the bailoffs and tieing that in with Madoff and his 'Jewish' ponzi scheme to comments that many of the corporate types on Wall Street are Jews. And now today, there was talk of taxpayers being the Jews to Obama's Hitler......in my mind, a weird analogy.

I think these constant references to ethnicities would make any member of those ethnicities a little nervous. Its a weird time.....gun and ammo sales are up dramatically YOY. There is public talk of revolt and secession in TX. The right is unwilling to make any kind of compromise. And they are blaming the rest of us for their turmoil.

So it would not surprise me if conservative Jews and other minorities in this country are feeling a little uncomfortable.
