So an Arkansas state senator calls Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) “that Jew,” and in the course of explaining away the remark through a folksy defense of “traditional values” — apparently this gentleman thinks Andy Griffith was an anti-Semite or something — he defends himself by saying, “I don’t use a teleprompterand occasionally I put my foot in my mouth.” Yeah! Because when President Obama doesn’t have a Teleprompterin front of him, he starts talking like David Irving mixed with Mahmoud Ahmedinejad reading from The Turner Diaries. Rahm Emanuel will tell you all aboutthat.
It’s telling how a Republican politician thinks he can get his people to ignore an anti-Semitic remark by dogwhistling something about Obama.
