I'm glad to see the American Irish still drink until their livers explode and the American Italians are all Guidos... oh and it's nice to see the American Asians all own nail salons and can't drive worth a shit.
Isn't stereotyping and generalizing fun? /sarcasm
tell me about it!
i have LOTS of jewish family. i consider myself jewish as well, although the self-applied title is only honorary.
in any case, i can point to a few family members that were already adamantly opposed to obama based on his stance on israel and middle east peace BEFORE he dropped the 1967 borders bomb. all of these people voted for obama in 2008, mind you.
now, upon discussing this with the most adamant of those who disliked obama for his israel stance, he readily conceded the point that peace is not possible with a permanent occupation. his friends in the discussion were very telling, however. they all seemed to think obama DEMANDED a return to pre-1967 borders among other embellishments. i can post the very civil discussion if you wish.
all of the objections mentioned, however, were completely beyond the control of any US president. they simply disliked the fact that the path to peace for israel and its neighbors will entail many concessions over time. they are scared for israel, and rightfully so, but that mindset does not encourage rational thought patterns.
the whole middle east peace situation is a messfuck that will likely never be resolved for the same reasons that certain family members object to obama's stance on israel.
that said, i've got to go back on the prowl for some black pussy.
