I haven't read all the comments on wmtriallawyer's diary, but I've read enough to be accused of calling him an antisemite (even though I never used that word or any of its derivatives) and also to see the suggestion that in fact I am a racist.
In this diary I will briefly state why I posted what I posted -- and you can make your own judgment as to what I said or didn't say. At the outset, to give you a sneak preview, I admit in this diary that I was over the top and didn't say what I was intending to say. That said, I still think I have a valid critique of his original diary which is to question why you would illustrate how money influences politics too much by telling a story about "Jewish money."
Also, I don't encourage wmtriallawer to leave Daily Kos. Of course, I can't stop him, and people should do what they want to do, but if people just walk away from disagreements, we'll never resolve them. As I commented yesterday, I freely admitted that my comment Could have been wrong, but how could I ever know that if someone just walks away?
