Vice President Joe Biden drew fire from a prominent Jewish group on Tuesday after he described unscrupulous bankers who prey on servicemen and servicewomen deployed overseas as “Shylocks” — a term frequently condemned as an anti-Semitic caricature.
“Shylock represents the medieval stereotype about Jews and remains an offensive characterization to this day. The Vice President should have been more careful,” Anti-Defamation League National Director Abraham Foxman said.

Wow, Biden seems to be one of the most bigoted politicians next to Harry Reid. And yet the Left keeps electing these bigots. Amazing
Yet they will still vote for him and his ilk.
What a strange choice of words from Biden. I don’t know if it’s really antisemitic (probably a bit) or not, but I know what would happen if a conservative said it. Biden will get away with it Scot free. heh heh
Lucky Biden isn’t a republican. There might be consequences if he was.
All Jews had been expelled from England 200 years prior to the composition of The Merchant of Venice.
It is credibly supposed that Shakespeare was personally acquainted with any Jews, that he used them as symbols in a veiled criticism of whiggish economic rapaciousness.
Dastardly autocorrect: unacquainted
Yep. The long knives would be out demanding a pound of flesh. ;~))
At least he didn’t let fly with anything from “The Jew Of Malta”.
He has said many things which would have gotten him in trouble if he were a Republican.
Stand up Chuck, asking a wheelchair bound man to stand.
You can’t go into a 711,or Dunkin Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent.
He praised Obama as a clean articulate black man.
There are other Bidenisms as well. Point is, Democrats face no consequences for inarticulate or offhand remarks which are not expressed well. Whereas Republicans will be crucified for any such gaffes.
Stant up, Abraham, let them all see you!
You can’t go into a 7-Eleven or Dunkin Donuts without . . .
“You put them first, and they put you last. ‘Cause you’re a chump. A political chump! … Any time you throw your weight behind a political party that controls
two-thirds of the government, and that party can’t keep the promise that it made to you during election time, and you are dumb enough to walk around continuing
to identify yourself with that party — you’re not only a chump but you’re a traitor to your race.” — Malcolm X
Makes me want to put on a Washington Redskins shirt and go have breakfast at Sambo's ...
And we all know why: the oligarchs own the whores in media and tell them what to spew. Thus the media ARE the fifth column enemy inside the gates.
Biden’s offensiveness is deliberate and an essential part of his emotional and moral stature.
He’s not that much of a friend of Israel, either. This is just another manifestation of his basic dislike of certain minority groups.
“It’s just Joe being Joe.”
A rectal orifice by any measure.
And by the untold millions, too.
and yet you Jewish folks keep voting Democrat, so STFU.
It was intentional.
Just my opinion.
Are you implying that all Scotsmen are criminals and that the only reason that they are not all in jail is that there are not enough jail cells to hold them all?
