Footlik is one heckuva name, though... almost as bad as Gorelik....(shudder)

"Of course not, why would you think otherwise?"

The article/thread you posted seems to focus mostly on Jews appointed in office.

To me it seems like a non issue unworthy of a thread.

jooooooooooooooooooz?

This whole thing is utter hogwash. Any good, upstanding Catholic like myself could tell you unabashedly that we are ruling the entire world. The answer is right here:

In a recent issue of the New York Review of Books, liberal Catholic historian Garry Wills, author of a new book about Jesus, revealed that there is a conservative Catholic fringe group that is pulling the levers of power in the church and the government. Specifically, there are four men: George Weigel (whose terrific new book God's Choice is required reading for serious Catholics), Joseph Fessio, Michael Novak, and (cue scary music) Richard John Neuhaus. Perhaps suffering from a Da Vinci Code-like fever dream, Wills charges that these men, well, run the country. They are connected with Karl Rove (natch), and guide their nefarious neocon policy from the fringe. They are, that is to say, an anti-democratic oligarchy imposing its will on a public that does not support them.

So, listen up and watch your step, 'cause Father Neuhaus and I am coming for y'all!

Don't even ask for a sarcasm tag. Just don't.

It's not going away.

No. It's not.

Ever really listen to the headlines some days?

"Thurgood Marshall selected as first Black Supreme Court justice."
"Ron McNair, first Black astronaut."
"Judy Resnick, first Jewish person into space."
"Clarence Thomas, first Black since Thurgood Marshall selected to Supreme Court."

And on and on and on....
Labels upon labels upon labels.

Why are some people so damned interested in keeping score?

When I first heard about Matisyahu, I thought "Hasidic reggae - it's gotta be a lame novelty act."

But now I own "Live at Stubbs" and its no joke. It rocks the whole way through.

I see from an earlier thread that the word is that tony snow is taking the press sec. job at the WH. and as far as I know, he's not Jewish.

The media now will have a Tevya moment...on the one hand, he's a good man. Treats people well, clever boy...on the other hand, he's not Jewish? OY!

meantime, this Jew is doing the Snoopy dance...couldn't be happier to have Tony up there..hope he b*tchslaps a couple of Pressniks around.

"So Madeleine Albright now counts as Jewish, when she supposedly didn't know about her Jewish ancestry until adulthood?"

Ach, weh....Mady Korbel didn't know....

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Madeleine_Albright
Madeleine Albright was born Marie Jana Korbelová in Prague, Czechoslovakia (now Czech Republic), and raised Roman Catholic by her parents, who had converted to Catholicism from Judaism in order to escape persecution. She has a brother, John, who later became an economist. Madeleine was the French version of "Madlenka", a Czech nickname given by her grandmother....In 1939, the Korbel family fled to London after Bohemia and Moravia were annexed by Germany in 1939."

Now why would they flee? They were Catholics, weren't they.

Ach, weh....Please don't believe the fables about Mady.

[Radix]

There is something wrong here.

Which leads me to.....

By the way, the old man in the mountain croaked a while back. You might want to update your profile page. I didn't get very far there once I discerned that you were from another time.

[Beagle8U]

I said that I have no problem with Jewish persons, and I didn't start this stupid thread.

[Suzy Quzy]

I think Tony is Catholic, but I hope he LAUGHS at them when he's turning the other cheek. Bush turns the other cheek but he's still nice to the left.

[Kirkwood]

It is interesting that so many university liberals are antisemitic. Not that they will ever admit it, but they clearly are by their muslim lovefest behavior.

[Suzy Quzy]

Madeline Albright is Episcopalian, NOT Catholic...PLEASE.

[glasseye]

jooz are kool....

I support Isreal, in good times and bad.

And I vote.

"There is no evidence that Pat Buchanan is upset, much as you wish him to be."

I think being upset about everything is the norm for Pat.

I cannot believe we are still talking like this in the 21st century.

Me, too. I had no idea which church this guy worhipped in. In fact, I still don't know his skin color. I don't care because, like a huge majoriy of us, I am a results driven censervative.

"Who cares how many Jews or non-Jews or whites or blacks or Hindus Bush has in his cabinet. It's the Democrats who put everyone in monolithic buckets and demand quotas."

The only thing I worry about is the lack of Moslems in Bush's Cabinet. Perhaps he should set a quota and create an Affirmative Action Program for Moslems./sarcasm

[SquirrelKing]

He ROCKS.

People hear me blast him and look at me funny. Then I tell them who it is and they take two steps back.

Coleman's a Republican.

[Prost1]

I know. So is Specter, on paper.

And note the operative word was "may"...
