Casual Observation

There is something weird about how Republicans go around accusing Democrats of being anti-Israel or anti-Jewish and then have to apologize for using nasty stereotypes about Jews. It’s like Tommy Thompson and Mitt Romney see Jews as this endangered species of super-rich bankers who are really good at collecting their debts. It’s very strange. Any idiot can say that they support Israel more than the other guy, but it doesn’t make them a friend of Jewish people. For starters, Jews shouldn’t consider anyone a reliable friend if they have to explain to them that they don’t like to be culturally reduced to people who “make money.”
