Alan answers his own question

The probable answer is that he wasn’t thinking, nor were his staff people.

And if Alan hadn't mentioned it, no one would remembers.

It was a missed opportunity though, Ford later recognized the error of his ways.

Has Alan D. EVER voted for a Republican?

I doubt it.

Mr. D. is a master of outrage, though; and he's in the right state for it.

Henry Ford has been dead fifty years. This is a stretch even by leftie standards. Ridiculous.

Forgive me.

So are you saying that Jews do not drive German automobiles?

I am a friend of Jews and a supporter of Israel. If I go to the Henry Ford Museum, am I an anti-Semite?

Isn't this guilt by association, i.e., a pernicious brand of McCarthyism?

It's crap like this that cheapens the term 'anti-semite".

Dersh is riding on his high horse; he needs to pick better fights.

Does Dersh go to synagogue? Has he read the Torah? Does he care?

"This is a stretch even by leftie standards."

You're kidding, right? Are we talking about the same lefties that today sue companies who benefited from slavery over 150 years ago?

Nothing is a stretch to a lefty trying to make some disjointed, asinine attempt at a slur.

You should, it's a great museum.

I don't know that Dershowitz was making any accusations. As I noted, few remember those days.

I never said that. Though my parents wouldn't buy either German or Japanese cars. I've never owned them either, I mostly drive Fords and Jeeps.

I'd like to, but both of my Fords are 7 years old, one pushing 170,000 miles, and no real reason to buy one yet.

And yet, Democrats insist that Robert Byrd's past association with the KKK is not an issue.

These liberal scum Democrats that are liberal and not Jewish are the biggest hypocrates on earth. Romney who gave an amazing speech on Iran in Israel and is a bigger supporter of Israel than any Democrap including the so called Jewish ones, is being attacked for giving a speech in a museum dedicated to a famous American innovator!!

These same bastards had no problem when Hilda beast said at an AIPAC dinner that Israel should negotiate with Iran!!

These same bastards have no problem with a Hezbollah Imam giving the invocation at a major Democrap function!!

These same liberal pieces of vermin have no problem with Jimmey Carter being one of the most prestigious Democraps in recent history!!

These same liberal subhumans have no problem with Al Sharpton (who is a current anti semite that has influence unlike Henry Ford from 80 years ago) being the keynote speaker at the 2004 Democrap convention, while he recieved that loudest applause of the whole convention!!

These same liberal feces have no problem with John Edwards having an anti Israel chief policy advisor (Former Congressman David Bonior) while they trash all of the Republican nominees who have stellar records in regard to Israel. What about Conyers as chairman of the House Judiciary Commitee??

Where the hell where these so called Jewish organizations when the Republican administration and Congress installed the most pro Israel UN ambassador in John Bolton, and the Democrap anti Israel bums hated him so much for his views (on Israel) that they fillibustered his nomination??

These liberal vermin are the biggest self hating anti semites that are nothing but an arm of the Democrap party.

Now that you have "outed" me, how can I ever show my face at the "Elders of Zion" secret hideout behind the 2nd Ave. Deli ever again?
