I've heard black leaders insult Jews. I don't recall any black politicians in particular, but that may have happened.

I don't believe I've ever heard anyone scream out in debate- "You bunch of ...
CHRISTIANS".


But if you've been listening you've heard many times both politicians and the media disparaging the "fundamentalist Christian" or "right wing Christian" groups.

"I wonder what insinuations and insults we could find?"

In 1979, the people I worked with were all "enlightened" females and we would go out for eats and drinks on Friday night after work. In this group bitc# and f*ck were such common words that rarely a sentence passed without one of these two embedded in it. No one was ever insulted by this. So, one Friday I sat down to see if I could come up with some "New" ways. I made a list to use Friday night. When things were going loud and wild I used the one on the top of my list. "Hey Glenda, you neurotic housewifey wench, its your turn to go get a round of drinks." You would have thought EF Hutton had said it. The place went totally silent and I spent the next couple of hours kissing up. I never tried the second item on the list.
