Bringing Out The Worst In Americans


Its always there bubbling under the surface, but thanks to Bushco, Americans are more openly displaying their intolerance and hatred. Dim Father must be so proud of Dim Son and the legacy he'll leave.
A large Delaware school district promoted Christianity so aggressively that a Jewish family felt it necessary to move to Wilmington, two hours away, because they feared retaliation for filing a lawsuit. The complaint recounts a raucous crowd that applauded the board’s opening prayer and then, when sixth-grader Alexander Dobrich stood up to read a statement, yelled at him "take your yarmulke off!" His statement, read by Samantha, confided "I feel bad when kids in my class call me Jew boy."

Yes I connect this story directly to the moron and his administration. Their dividing the country and stirring up intolerance, hatred and fear of "them" is feeding these people's worst instincts. What was once bubbling under the surface is now boiling over.

Note: I do recognize the irony of using a burning cross picture in a post about intolerance for Jews. I could find no pictures of burning Stars of David. Go figure.
