"Voltaire has a word for Jews who complain of anti-Semitism:"

VOLTAIRE (Francois Marie Arouet) 18th century French philosopher, writer:

"Why are the Jews hated? It is the inevitable result of their laws; they either have to conquer everybody or be hated by the whole human race..."
"The Jewish nation dares to display an irreconcilable hatred toward all nations, and revolts against all masters; always superstitious, always greedy for the well-being enjoyed by others, always barbarous - cringing in misfortune and insolent in prosperity." (Essai sur le Moeurs)

"You seem to me to be the maddest of the lot. The Kaffirs, the Hottentots, and the Negroes of Guinea are much more reasonable and more honest people than your ancestors, the Jews. You have surpassed all nations in impertinent fables in bad conduct and in barbarism. You deserve to be punished, for this is your destiny." (From a letter to a Jew who had written to him, complaining of his 'anti-Semitism.' Examen des Quelques Objections...dans L'Essai sur le Moeurs.)

Has anyone heard any question on why there was such major goofup on intelligence that lead to the invasion?

There was no major goof. The reason the SOTU included the silly Niger Yellowcake story was that Bush knew he had no intelligence to support the invasion.

There WAS NO GOOF.

Hardcore Republicans DON'T CARE.

They're voting their religious convictions and the notion that Dems are elitists looking down on them or welfare-sucking liberals looking down on them. What goes on in Medicare, the war, the economy, taxes ISN'T IMPORTANT.

Stupid but passionate.
