What is it with wingnuts and religion? I watched Nick Foles play football for a few years, and never once did I wonder what religion he was a part of.

I think maybe there is a Jewish Deadhead out there in snarkland who can do better justice than I?

She has apologized and I’m glad she did. You’re so sure this was a “trope of a money loving Jew”. You’re wrong. The remarks were about buying influence with money. She mentioned AIPAC as one of several groups who do this. In my neighborhood growing up and since, you’d hear people say “all about the Benjamins” and they were talking about hundred dollar bills, not Jewish people. Maybe you ought to get out more.

I wouldn't be too sure; did the Browns pay for their stadium?

Who thought it was a good idea to have her on This Week in the first place? She should not be on any ABC News show; she's entertainment division, and frankly has no business being brought on to discuss political news, unless it's specifically stated up front about her husband's role.

There aren't many people on TV these days who are stupider than Meghan McCain.

She is ONE DUMB CLUCK!

Nice explanation. My Jewish (Reform) boyfriend in college just told me once, with a dramatically serious tone, "STAY AWAY from the Chabad Lubavitch (sp?) people... They are CRAZY." He viewed them as being somewhat similar, though slightly less obnoxious, than Jews for Jesus. Having had devout Southern Baptist grandparents, crazy was pretty much what I expected from any church kinda experience.

Amen. Lori threw herself between the gunman and the rabbi, and sacrificed her life. May her memory always be a blessing.

I know which side the GOP and Ms. McCain stand on, and it isn't (((ours))). Thanks, $5F.

I've always wondered what her qualifications to be an "expert" on anything are. Born to a rich mother and a powerful father? How nice for her, but what has SHE ever done in her entire life?

Sounds like you should let her. She's doing a way better jew job than you.
