Republican Woman Shouts "Heil Hitler!" At Jewish Man Praising Israel's Health Care: Why do the right wing nut jobs become 5 years old when they can't defend a position?

Pamela *Raccoon* August 19, 2009 16:00:28

I don't care what anyone says, this is really messed up. I know some Republicans can defend their positions, but unfortunately for them, some of their supporters who happen to get most exposure in the press, are completely and utterly braindead. "Heil Hitler"?? I'm not even Jewish and I believe anyone who says such stupidity should be arrested.



Stay classy, Republicans.
Because they have no passage from the bible to recite.
Simply because they can't defend their position in a rational debate, beyond the talking points fed to them by Hannity, Rush, or Beck
Republicans are not like her. She did it for lulz.
Because that is the only way to become the next YouTube Sensation.

    That's like comparing every liberal to Nancy Pelosi or better yet the anti-war protesters that spit on our soldiers during Vietnam!

    When you listen to that crap every night from the RW Talk Hosts it gets under your bone brain and leaks out at opportune times ! Programmed lemmings seem to be the rage these days instead of rational discourse .

    Generalizing that Republicans are like 5 year olds is like generalizing that all Democrats are idiots. Just because a lot of them are, doesn't mean all of them are. The problem Democrats seem to have with the protesters is that they aren't willing to sit back and not ask questions. People being engaged in the political process is far less childish than assuming any politician has your best interest in mind. Sadly, there is no good argument for the merits of this healthcare reform. If there was, Democrats would use it. Instead of telling America how the plan makes any sense at all, they spend their time getting upset that some people dare to speak out against it. THAT's childish.

    Some people just like negativity and pessimism. They crab because they want change and when change comes they crab they don't want it.

    Wow. That's really sad. It mostly makes me ashamed that an American person would act like that. It's just incredibly embarrassing, and insanely immature. It's sickening.

    I'm not sure what side of the argument she is on. She was wearing an IDF shirt, which just makes her use of that term baffling. Such anger, over what? A statement that Israel takes care of their solders medical needs? There is a difference between passionate speech in support of your position (whatever that is) and hate speech.

    I'm stunned. He was praising how they take care of their own, their soldiers!

    I can't bear anyone being so hateful....a closed mind means a closed heart....ignorance breeds hatred and allows bullies (political and otherwise) to fester away in other people's minds until they create extremist cultures...very scary....

    Not all republicans are like this. There is a group of them way over the edge! She did it because she is full of hate, fear, mistrust and frightens herself by listening to sound bites from the like of rush, glen, anne. There is no excuse or excusing this type of behavior.

    People are scarred of the government control and some are using desperate extreme measures to prove there point. I wouldn't of done this myself, I think that woman is mentally ill, there's freak's on both side's. But it's a good example of how sensitive this issue is for a lot of people.

    But seriously, if he loves Israel's health care so much he should live there instead of the USA. We take the good with the bad in this country and don't like our freedoms trampled on.

    The vast majority of the Republicans are not like her.

    Unfortunately, in this day and age, it's only the voice of the extremists that are heard-- because they shout the loudest and they are the most sensationalistic.

    A similar parallel may be the Muslims-- the vast majority of them are peaceful people, who simply want to live their lives in peace and to do the best they can for their families.

    However, there is a small group of extremists who blow stuff up and who engage in terrorist activities--and since the moderates don't condemn the extremists, to the outside world ALL of them seem to be extremists.

    It's the same way in today's Republican Party. It's being led by extremists, and the extremists are the ones doing all the shouting--while the centrist and moderate Republicans who DON'T hold those extremist views are being painted with the same brush-- simply because we don't denounce the extremist views as BEING extremist.

    Which is why it is so increasingly important that the moderates slash centrists/slash normal Republicans stand up and repudiate the extremists; we've got to let the rest of the world know that they do NOT speak for us.

    She's one person, not everyone at that meeting acted like her or even agreed with her. I don't see how we're going to get away from it. I just think it's best to remind people that this is how it always is on both sides, some day I may need the same reminding!

    Agreed.

    However, she's the one that was sensationalized and therefore the one that gets the press and the one that people will rally behind.

    Nobody will know that the other speakers ever existed, but SHE'LL be the next Joe the Plumber.
