There’s no reason to lighten up. How many times have Republicans apologised until they’re blue in the face only to be run out of office or worse by a vindictive press?

I've never understood the term "anti-semetic", because it was my understanding that Semitic refers both to Jewish people and Arabs, among others.

And, considering that Barack Obama is 1/8 black and 3/8 Arab, that means he has more Semetic background than black. So, if Obama is anti-semetic, does that mean he doesn't like himself?

Especially strange, since the Hebrew form of the name Barack is Baruch.

Q: Why did the Jews wander in the desert for 40 years?

“...didn’t stop with the infamous 40-minute scolding Secretary of State Clinton delivered to Prime Minister Netanyahu”

I bet she scared him bad! She is clearly nothing but a shrew. I’m sure he was laughing at this woman who slept her way into power, and now thinks she is actually taken seriously, as she represents the man-child presidency.

I thought the joke was funny... but you could have easily changed the nationalities to Smith and Jones and got the same result.

Oh, the difference a single name makes. I first heard this “joke” about 35 years ago at a bar-mitzvah. BOTH men involved were Jewish and had obvioulsy Jewish names. If you tell it about two Italians, two Germans, or two anythings, it would be funny. The sad thing is the teller of this version was too out of touch to know the year is 2010.

Though in obviously poor taste

Ok, someone help me out because I've lost my ability to detect the obvious poor taste of the joke.

I want to deport both of the Clintons to Gaza for a period of not less that 5 years.
Let’s see how they like the Palis after that period of time.
