Wonkette owes you the apology. Since when did something "appearing in a video or song" make something acceptable? Imus' "nappy headed ho's" comment appears in plenty of songs and elsewhere, and we all know how that ended.<BR/><BR/>It's a bit ironic, considering the contortions the Wonkette's founding editor said as she tried to weasel out of the momentary I-scandal...<BR/><BR/>"I had been invited inside the circle, and to be perfectly honest, I was thrilled to be there...

To those antisemites out there, tough luck. I feel so bad for those people who are always are the losing side.<BR/><BR/>To those expressing support, thank, thanks a lot.<BR/><BR/>And if anybody connects with the JewSchool link (which many won't because they know he's a silly radical leftie progressive), here's my comment I left at his site:<BR/><BR/>"Well, at least you spelled my name right.<BR/><BR/>Allow me thought to respond to one charge: that of support for ethnic cleansing (the rest of what you think of me is just silly nonsense - I got the joke but I didn't think it funny). You write -"Guys like Medad usually have other areas of expertise, like say, halakhic proofs legitimizing ethnic cleansing." Well, I am not sure about others like me but I don't legitimize ethnic cleansing. Don't worry, I won't take you court but permit me a few sentences here.<BR/><BR/>I believe that all who wish to live in this country, the Jewish, democratic state of Israel, the culmination of the Zionist movement's effort to redeem, at this stage, the Jewish people, can and should on one condition: that they don't try to subvert or alter what the state is supposed to be. One thing it isn't to be is a Palestinian Arab state. If anyone has engaged in premeditated ethnic cleansing, it it the Arabs. Tel Hai in 1920, Jaffa in 1921, Petah Tikvah in 1924, 1929 in Hevron, Beer Tuviah & Hulda and in 1947-48, Gush Etzion, Bet Haaravah, Neveh Yaakov and Atarot and Jerusalem's Old City were ethnically cleansed of Jews by Arabs. I consider a Jew and Zionist who bandies about that term in order to malign a Jew who has returned to his homeland not only stupid and incorrect factually but a gross adoption of the enemy's propaganda line. Despite your JBS quotation below, you have attacked a person because, I am pretty sure, you don't know me and if you had reviewed my site (as you suggested I had done with Wonkette), you would not assign me such views in your off-handed, conveniently- justifying-your-own-views manner.<BR/><BR/>Have a nice rest of Tisha B'Av."<BR/><BR/>If you go over to <A HREF="http://myrightword.blogspot.com/2007/07/ken-from-wonkette-replies.html" REL="nofollow">here</A> yiou'll see that Ken folded up.<BR/><BR/>And to all of us, be ever vigiliant.YMedadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14333122797414935958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7014209.post-62844509323486251932007-07-24T11:44:00.000+03:002007-07-24T11:44:00.000+03:00There are times for civility, and times like these...There are times for civility, and times like these.
