little touchy this morning...
goodness. old rumors die hard. you respond like you are angry. I have relatives that are jewish, I have no resentment against them.
As for father coughlin, I recently came across booklets my father had for decades. Probably where I heard about it. I just remember hearing about it so I mentioned it. It was not mentioned with hatred or spite.
My grandmothers name was Kuhlmann, which is also often considered jewish. She and her family were 100% dutch, so I believe you on that one. I was merely for conversation purposes, no hatred, or antisemite injected. Glad that one was cleared up.
No, I'm not angry, but I do know the history of that period and the rumors about Roosevelt were specifically designed to appeal to an audience which was anti-Jewish. Sadly, a lot of people are still receptive to that message.
