Shalom,
Late this afternoon I had a long chat with my Mom who lives on the East Coast, CT to be exact, and it was very interesting. My Mom obviously is already inclined to vote against Obama, simply because his name sounds like Osama. Considering her son, my brother, was murdered by Osamas 9/11 plot she will not vote for anyone with a name like Osama. Without my help she is already aware of Obamas Muslim connections and it bothers her greatly.
Well she attended a high society party the other night. My mom is in the IN crowd of professionals including Bankers, Financers, Corporate executives and others. She told me about several Jews, conservatives it turns out {I initially suspected they were Deformed Jews} , who started conversations with her about politics. Everyone who spoke to her was pumping Obama and how impressed they were with his convention speech. My mom just told them she didnt want to talk politics because it would cause hard feelings. I told my mom that if I were there I would have taken them on and explained just why Obama should not be president.
It is just absolutely agravating that so many Jews have been brainwashed. Mom tells me each one was already pushing the talking point of the Dem convention, that McCain is another four years of Bush. I told my mom that the comeback for that is that Obama is another four years of Carter. Obama is so lucky that they didnt allow Carter to speak at the convention. If that were to happen you could bet we would be using it against him. I could see the two of them on stage as the voice over announces "Four more years for Carter!".
What we need to do is concentrate on separating McCain from Bush. I know that McCain didnt agree with Bush on many, many issues. The problem is that doing this may just loose some of the more Conservative voters because McCain has had a history of working together with Democrats in some controversial issues.
My mom is very worried about the future of this country. She is very confused as to why so many people are apparently trashing this country without any thought about the consequences. And in their twisted hearts they think they are doing the right thing. There are some incredible times, stranger than fiction...
