I recall when Madeleine Albright discovered that she had Jewish ancestors and the drive by media practically deified her.

Now, in the case of Allen, the drive by media wants to tar him with his Jewish roots.

Another double standard...

Now that's a good point. For Albright, it was interesting and diverse and historically painful, yet somehow liberating and.... blah blah. Yet for George Allen, it is sinister and dishonest. I'd say as far as public life goes, for everybody it is irrelevant.

I believe this is a quote from Abraham Lincoln: "I do not know who my grandfather was. I am much more concerned about who his grandson will be."

Just like with black Republicans.
