Last week I wrote about
Republicans Dropping the Code-Word "Liberals" and Accusing Jews Directly. It continues today at
Townhall.com:
The sad fact is that the ACLU is made up in good part of Jews, and it is that organization and its lawyers who are leading the assault against Christmas.
... Unfortunately, as is so often the case with black Americans, those who are high- profile and get most of the media attention are the radicals and the rabble-rousers. When my critics accused me of promoting anti-Semitism, I pleaded not guilty. I asked them if they thought that gentiles were so stupid that, until I wrote my piece, they didn't recognize that there is a secular jihad underway in this country to remove Christ from Christmas.
Do we get condemnation of this stuff from the "uniter not divider" Bush Administration? Does he show that he is President of the United States, not just of the Republican Party?
Condemnation? No, after last week's attack on Jews Bush's response is to
send his Secretary of State to
honor the Heritage Foundation:
Taking questions after a speech on Iraq to the Heritage Foundation, Rice again took Iran to task on a range of issues...
A speech in which she said:
The organization, the Heritage Foundation, is a true bedrock of our democratic principles, our freedom, our way of life and a vehicle by which free men and women can debate their future. Thank you very much for the great work of this organization.
TownHall, where this attack on Jews is published, is a product of the Heritage Foundation.
From their websiteIn 1993, The Heritage Foundation, one of the most prestigious conservative think tanks joined forces with National Review to open the Town Hall forum on the CompuServe service. The CompuServe forum was the hub for conservative thought online for several years but was shut down when the World Wide Web became the dominant online medium.
Townhall.com was launched in 1995 on the World Wide Web as the first conservative web community. At that time, only a handful of political sites existed and Townhall.com was the first major investment in online activism made by either side.
In 2005, Townhall.com split off from the research focused Heritage Foundation in order to expand the scope of Townhall.com's mission to inform, empower, and mobilize citizens for political change.
Bush sends his Secretary of State to honor them. NO WONDER TownHall felt free to continue the attack today!
