Well in connecting logic, This article explains divisive stupidity. This is about speaking on the edge of evil. I'd say the way dem's attack the President on all kinds of issues should be put under a similar analysis. Congressman Blames Jews for 'This War With Iraq' Jewish groups are furious at Rep. James Moran, D-Va., for saying, "If it were not for the strong support of the Jewish community for this war with Iraq we would not be doing this." In a speech March 3, Moran "blasted the Bush administration for its rush to war but saved some of his harshest criticism for Jewish leaders in the United States," the Connection Newspapers of northern Virginia reported Wednesday. "The leaders of the Jewish community are influential enough that they could change the direction of where this is going, and I think they should," Moran said. Ira N. Forman, director of National Jewish Democratic Council, said: "It is simply stunning to hear Representative Moran make such accusations. We can only hope that in making these statements, the congressman is unaware of the long and tragic history of demagogic leaders who have singled out Jewish communities around the world as being responsible for various unpopular policies. Historically, such accusations have - wittingly or unwittingly - fed the paranoia of the worst anti-Semitic elements in societies, often with very tragic consequences. "Representative Moran?s statements are also unfortunate because they get the facts wrong. First, a number of the current leaders of the anti-war movement are Jewish, as they have been throughout modern American history. Furthermore, recent surveys have shown that public opinion about the war within the Jewish community is not dramatically different than the opinion among the general population. Moreover, Jewish organizations have clearly not been at the forefront among those groups actively and stridently supporting a war in Iraq." Ira: Lie down with dogs, wake up with fleas. Moran refuses to list his e-mail address on his congressional Web site, but here are his phone numbers: 703-971-4700 and 202-225-4376. Fax: 703-922-9436 and 202-225-0017. newsmax.com
