When Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Tex.) last month mocked Donald Trump‘s "New York values," it wasn‘t entirely clear what he was implying.
This week we got a clue: For Cruz, "New York" is another way of saying "Jewish."
At an event in New Hampshire, Cruz, the Republican Iowa caucuses winner, was asked about campaign money he and his wife borrowed from Goldman Sachs. Cruz, asserting that Trump had "upward of $480 million of loans from giant Wall Street banks," said: "For him to make this attack, to use a New York term, it‘s the height of chutzpah." Cruz, pausing for laughter after the phrase "New York term," exaggerated the guttural "ch" to more laughter and applause.
But "chutzpah," of course, is not a "New York" term. It‘s a Yiddish — a Jewish — one. And using "New York" as a euphemism for "Jewish" has long been an anti-Semitic dog whistle.

IATZ
Dana is such a schmuck.
.
Please tell me what IATZ means. Can’t find on google. Being old is tough enough without not understanding all these abbreviations.
BTW even though I support Trump this article was real bad. Cruz in no way hates Israel or Jews. What hogwash!
Thanks!!!
We finally Zotted this creep.
Good Job Mod!
Now there are dog whistle words for jews?
I’m not for Cruz, but that article is ridiculous.
Wanna bet? Cozying up to Milstank would be as bad as cozying up to Beck. We can disagree who is the better candidate, but the libs need to butt out. They don’t want Trump or Cruz. They want an establishment and will campaign against both of them. That goes for NRO and RedStare. If they can take out Trump, they will turn their guns on Cruz.
IATZ means you were too late to be IBTZ(ot).
Good work. :-)

Several years ago I knew someone who was something of a mental case. He decided to convert to Judaism. I was a bit surprised that he found a synagogue that allowed him to convert since he seemed like an obvious nutjob. But after that if anyone objected to his bizarre behavior, they were anti-Semitic in his eyes.
‘Dana Milbank’ says it all ..like EJ Dionne.. Or Noam Chumsky
Thanks.
It’s gonna get worse. Trump and Cruz are their targets and they won’t stop. They want easy opposition for the Hildibeast
There is only one Alinsky candidate running for the GOP nomination, a sure sign he is not conservative.
“ScottWalkerForPresident2016” account shows to be banned, so why is his post here in FR?
I am so impressed I am going to donate right now.
Dana Milbank is legendary for his nastiness, even beyond the usual level we expect from liberal journalists.
Ex-Noob.
