| #14 #13 Hello!, Thank you for the follow up. The source of my information has long been forgotten. I do recall that the percentage was higher but could not remember exactly(I found the information on the internet trying to secure the percentage after O's election). One thought given for the high voter count was that AH had a Jewish mother. I have talked to several who were from that time. I have talked with one who hid people in her home. My sources are varied but the fact remains that it was a troubled time that has past. Currently the vote is plain to see. The left liberal American activity as well. These are a gifted people for whom I have the highest regard. I remember an MD on his knees with hands prayerfully clasped begging for medication for a terminal patient. With branded arm he begged facetiously(?) for pain medication. The Medical directors response was(" get up you little ass"). I do not recall if he was successful. I loved his resolve.I only try to understand why people think as they do and in mass which I call the flocking effect. One horse bolts and the others follow. |

| #13 In 1933 Jewish vote for AH was over 90%. That's not accurate. First of all, there is no accurate demographic breakdown of the German federal election of March 1933 that I am aware of. Secondly, Hitler never got more than 44% of the German vote, even when the elections were pretty much rigged (and when they had them). AND in the 1933 elections much of Hitler's support came from east Germany. There were I believe more Jews in the south and west of the country. So, to summarize: Jews did not vote in vast numbers for Hitler in 1933. In fact, I would guess based on the evidence that very few did. If you wish to read a very accurate and well-written book on Hitler's rise to power, please consult Conred Heiden's Der Furher. There is a very good edition available in English. |

| #12 I agree with you both. In 1933 Jewish vote for AH was over 90%. I didn't know that, but it doesn't surprise me. Hitler ran as a socialist. |

| #11 #6, #7, I agree with you both. In 1933 Jewish vote for AH was over 90%. O got high percentage as well. Older active Jewish friends that I talk to still think he is the greatest. Left leanings are ever apparent. The money will still go to Dems. Could you see Babs donate to a Republican. What will happen in November is as follows. We will vote for whoever we chose. Rinos or Demos will still take the easy route. President Bush said it best "they will look at the same information I get and will have no choice"(or words similar). More printed money, unemployment benefits extended, more taxes, because they don't have the will to do the right thing. Germany has. Default looms nearer. O will not adapt but simply follows his cook book recipe. I still say he is not an original thinker. He is parroting what he has been taught. |

| #9 I like my schadenfreude with whipped cream and some toasted almonds on top, and the chocolate sauce on the side. I like mine in a soft flour tortilla with cheese and jalapenos with a lager in the side. |

| #8 Heh! I had the word "Schadenfreude" as the screen-saver when I worked at the auto-insurance company, now there's a bunch of guys who delight in the misfortune of others. |

| #7 Hmmm, seems they are staunch Democrats and against Obama, but NOT the Party, Odd, perhaps they should do a recheck, they're supposed to be outstanding bankers and financiers, but can't add up a balance sheet concerning MORALS? |

| #6 Actually I find it depressing that after nearly 2 years of Obama's admin Dems outnumber Reps by 2-1 among Jewish voters. What is more important is what is taking place among the Jewish political donation community. I don't have a handle on this but it is no secret that a lot of the funding the Dems use comes from Jewish donors. |

| #5 Frankly, O and Company have lost every vote of anyone, whose brain is functioning and not under the influence of "Oy Vey-aid"@tm (Cool-aid to the rest of you) |

| #2 I kind of enjoy Schadenfreude, or as we used to say as kids, 'told you so'. |

| #1 "I am truly ashamed at the level of Schadenfreude every sentence of this piece drove into the depths of my soul." I'm not, tw. Schadenfreud away. ;-p |
