Your completely paranoid and irrational reading of a perfectly innocuous phrase tells me definitively that you have no capacity to carry on civil discourse realting in any way to Jews if the conversation does not reflect every sacred nuiance that you require. I am real tired of that attitude, "I don't like it so it must be anti-Semitism."
The scum Frank Rich called American war hero Bob Dole an anti-Semite in his New York Times column back in 1995 just because Dole made some remarks critical of Hollywood. Some of you are on the way to making "anti-Semitism," a badge of honor, a testimony that the person so charged is not cowed by your howls.
Your point is so well taken since Dole specifically mentioned Jews in Hollywood and there friends, puting me and Rich in the exact same boat. What? Dole never mentioned Jews at all? Then I guess you have no point at all, Patrick.
People are always talking about Germans and their friends, Mexicans and their friends, Chinese and their friends. Well, maybe not. But its a perfectly innocuous phrase that doesnt belie any conspiratorial, paranoid attitude at all. No sir. Badge of honor.
