A response to Sally

Submitted by Irvin Shiffman (United States), Oct 26, 2012 at 00:37

Sally, you are preaching to the wrong person. I love Israel and make regular financial contributions to the State. I have also been to Israel and agree with most everything you said. My name does not have a C in it by the way. I too have found that Liberals are difficult to converse with politically. I don't know your age but you just don't have your finger on the pulse of young Americans. My daughter and I saw a movie last night called the "Jews of Iran" That was a very sad commentary on the state of the Jewish community remaining in Iran. Perhaps 2,000 Jews who are despised and abused unbelievably. after the movie my daughter made the statement that she would rather help those poor souls than the Jews in Israel who do after all have a good life. Do you have any young children over the age of 21? We have no assurance that either Obama or Romney will treat Israel as we would wish them too. I absolutely refuse to believe all the trash talking and negative things that were said about Obama during this campaigne.

Lastly not all Republicans are uneducated but some of them are very stupid like the senator and congressman who made unbelievable statements about the victims of rape. I am not proud to be a member of the same party that they are. As a woman I would think you should feel likewise.
