I don't know which annoys me more: the mindless jingoism that assumes God is on the side of Republicans, or the offhand anti-semitism suggesting that Jews can't be Americans. Seen at a recent Republican campaign rally:
Most confusing sign of the day: "If Jesus weren't a Jew, he'd be an American."

My best guess at trying to make some semblance of sense of that sign - and a guess is all it is - is that the person was equating being Jewish with being Israeli.
I don't know if that's anti-Semetic or not, but it is flaming stupid.
Or maybe they're just an ignorant, racist, anti-Semetic jackass.
Yeah, racist or stupid. In either event, they'd fit right in with the GOP hierarchy.
