Now that the War on Christmas is finally over (picture me kissing some random woman in Times Square amidst tons of falling confetti to celebrate VC Day!), shouldn’t O’Reilly’s War on Chanukah be getting under way? We’ve got at least 7 days left to object to all of those still-hanging “Happy Holidays!” and “Merry Christmas!” banners at Sears and Target to offend those who believe this is a Judeo<\/i>-Christian country as the X-Warriors have been claiming for the last several weeks (whenever they are “politically correct” enough to add that “Judeo” part, anyway).<\/p>\n
But don’t hold your breath for the Maccabean Troops to begin their Fox “News” Circus offensive any time soon. That whole “we support Jews and Israel” thing is (surprise!) just another Rightwing ruse for more votes to further entrench their Christo-Governmental agenda. And if those pesky Christ Killers don’t watch it, the Wingnuts may just declare they’re not the “Jew Lovers” they’ve been pretending to be after all!<\/p>\n
For you Jews out there who still<\/i> support the Rightwing Nuts and Christian-Right Religious Zealots (by no means mutually exclusive groups) under the misleading pretense that “they are strong supporters of Israel” take a look at what Media Matters reported last week<\/a> on recent comments made by Don Wildmon, the President of the extremist religio-political group calling itself The American Family Association.<\/p>\n In reply to to the Anti-Defamation League President, Abraham H. Foxman, who had been critical of Christian Right groups attempting to “Christianize America” Wildmon recently said:<\/p>\n Wow. Talk about your fair weather “friends”.<\/p>\n The Wingnuts — in whom various Jewish folks have given their support in a Faustian bargain (and that would include several members of my own family!) — may act as if they are supporters of Israel. But make no mistake, it is not because they are supporters of the Jews.<\/p>\n Any such belief or support for such cynical wingnuttery is wholly<\/i> misplaced as I have tried to point out for some time. Wildmon’s comments above illustrate that fact nicely.<\/p>\n Now if someone would just inform the apparently just-plain-insane Jew, Don Feder of “Jews Against Anti-Christian Defamation” that he’s being played for a chump by these cretins. Ghengis Don, as he proudly calls himself, recently told his wingnut “press” pals<\/a> that “America is a Christian Nation.” Oh, well…<\/p>\n
