Beware the Jews

Over the weekend, U.S. Rep. John Lewis (D-GA) laughably compared John McCain to segregationist George Wallace. The McCain campaign fired back, and even B. Hussein Obama stated that Lewis' comment was over the top.

Just a few days before Lewis made his McCain-Wallace comparison, Jesse Jackson, reputed man of the cloth and noted shakedown artist, told the World Policy Forum in France that B. Hussein Obama, if elected, will reverse "decades" of U.S. foreign policy in which America has put "Israel's interests" first. Quoth Jackson:

"Zionists ... have controlled American policy for decades. ... They will lose a great deal of their clout when Barack Obama enters the White House."

Let's be clear: When Jesse Jackson says "Zionists," what he really means is "Jews." Jackson has a history of making anti-Semitic comments (he once referred to New York City as "hymietown"), and he knew exactly what message his foreign listeners would hear when he said "Zionists."

Jackson's rhetoric is repulsive for sure. So B. Hussein should be asked to what degree Jackson speaks for his campaign. And, as the guys over at Red State ask, "Just how much does Obama stay up at nights worrying about the supposedly undue influence of 'Zionists'?" That would be a good question for tomorrow's debate ... but I ain't gonna hold my breath waiting for it to be asked.
