Don’t worry. Once theyve blurred the lines enough, just looking in a woman’s general direction will qualify. Then they’ll be able to go after Mike Pence if the want.

Larry King, Ryan Lizza and Norman Patti of this bunch.

Possibly, but unverified

all of the above data from standard biographies, mostly Wikipedia

You are trying to blame Judaism for these sex crimes? If many of these men happened to have been born into the religion, they were not practicing Jews by a long shot. Maybe blame them for ditching Judeo Christian morality and following only their most primitive lusts without regard to the Golden Rule.

I forget the name of the Jewish magazine who called Weinstein a “pervy Jew”...there is a stereotype and if you look at the entire list, it’s heavy on one side.

On a side note, Ryan Lizza was interviewing Freepers at the March for Justice in Oct of 1998 while working for the New Republic.

Yes, i personally assembled this list and checked their background. The majority state it quite clearly in their Wikipedia biography.

I am not blaming the Jewish religion, I don't think most if any of them were practicing Jews.

My good friend, the writer Lawrence Auster, who was himself born Jewish, but later converted to Christianity said that because of Jews special gifts it is especially important for them to follow their faith, when the fall away it is worse then, say, a Baptist no longer practicing his faith.

That is a sort of supernatural explanation, which I am not given too, but it is still how I tend to think about this.

My point too. When you make a decision early on to ignore all that you were taught about kindness and morality, who knows where to draw the line on character and behavior?
