Orthodox Jews will gladly pass a desperately injured non-Jew to tend to another Jew.

I lived in New York during the Crown Heights riots in 1991. Wittiness didn't agree on much, but they all told this part of the story the same way:

At the scene of the accident, the Jewish ambulance workers, who arrived first, totally ignored a dying black kid to tend to the superficial wounds of the Jews involved.

By the time the non-Jewish ambulance arrived, the black kid was dead. Later, it was reported that the injured Jews did not even require hospitalization.

Yes -- Orthodox Jews will casually step over a dying non-Jew, and Dr. Laura did exactly that with her own Mother.

1. The idiot owes Palin an apology;

2. The idiot owes the Democrats in his state an apology, because he just helped the Republicans;

3. Palin owes him a gift basket, because he just reconfirmed her "victim" status -- and that's one of her greatest fund-rasining weapons;

4. Kevin needs to clarify his position on Evolution if he is going to use terms like "knuckledraggin-neanderthal." Such terms clearly imply that Kevin no longer believes in Creationism.

Does this happen to be from the same visit to Iraq when W was photographed holding the plastic turkey?

Yeah... he was the real deal.

I love the pious posturing here.

You people are THRILLED with this decision. It's election time and this is raw meat for your base.

Kagan's confirmation will just be the icing on your fund-raising cake.

I know it's a friday in August, but gee...

Slow news day, Kevin?

Too much vacation? There is no such thing.

Breastfeeding has been around since we first started making babies.

How about some REAL news?

Spending money they have earned is somehow un-American?

In what bizarre, parallel Republican universe are you people living?

It was difficult for me to look at the coverage of the rally yesterday for too long: my eyes began to hurt from the sun's reflection off of that much white skin.

But, I'm just curious if you people remembered to count David and Charles Koch, the two ultra-right-wing billionaires who funded the whole thing.

Do you count them, too?

Of all the idiots and morons who post on Townhall, there really is no question that McCullough wins on an almost daily basis.

He must be married to the owner's daughter.

The best part of this?

The so-called "activist" judge in question is a Reagan and Bush 1st appointee, who was fought by the Democrats at the time of his confirmation hearing.

And there's more:

"...the federal judge in Boston who struck down a significant portion of the Defense of Marriage Act, ruling that it denied gay and lesbian couples the federal benefits afforded to straight couples, was appointed to the bench by President Richard NIXON. And the chief judge of the Iowa Supreme Court who wrote the unanimous decision striking down that state’s marriage ban was appointed by Republican governor Terry Branstad, who was just renominated for governor by Iowa Republican voters. Of course, Nixon and Branstad don’t have...

I missed the bong part.

In the meantime: my wife has a huge crush on Ratigan. I can't see what the attraction is, but she loves him.
