Choosing Your Phrases Carefully

Oh, and one more thing on the debate….

Was I the only (Jewish?) person who winced when Sarah Palin repeatedly used the phrase “never again” to refer to how we should respond to the financial crisis? Obviously that phrase has very particular connotations to me that aren’t appropriately applied to even the worst economic situation, but I can’t decide if I was being objectively unreasonable or if other Jews might have reacted the same way.

    Since jews vote overwhelming for Democrats no matter what, who cares what how it affects them. It would be the same as worrying about what blacks or homosexual thought about the debate.

    It was coincidence, nothing else, David. Though I'd be ashamed if I were you to want a “nuclear-free Middle East” (i.e., Israel should be disarmed and left ready to be devoured or destroyed by its wolf-like neighbor-enemies).
