But what if he tells me to go to you?
I tell you something; Dr. Savage is so brilliant that sometimes I've wanted to turn into a Jew right on the spot (while listening to him) just so I could have that cool thing in common with him. The man is a national treasure and if you're a Jew you should thank your lucky stars that you can boast that he's a member of your race!!!
to correct you, Jews are not a race, we are a religion...
Sorry, I don't see it that way.
Ted Koppel claims to be Jewish, but I regard him as a (liberal) phony through and through. He looks way more Irish than someone whose ancestry began in the Middle East.
Judaism is a religion that was started by people of the Jewish race thousands of years ago. It's open for non-Jews to become a part of, but, in my own mind, those that are not of the race aren't "real" Jews (but God bless 'em anyway).
Look, I'll admit to not knowing a great deal about Jewish folks, only what I've heard; that they, as a group, tend to be smarter than all other groups (with the possible exception of red heads and Asians:-). My knowledge of Jews is pretty much limited to only a few that I've had the pleasure of working with and to what I read in the book, The Jewish Mystique (written years ago by a gentile). And, of course, the great Michael Savage.
And, too, I know that Jews have been persecuted throughout the ages (though I'll never understand why).
Note: I just looked to see what my little electronic Franklin dictionary says about "Jew." It says this: 1. ISRAELITE 2. one whose religion is Judaism
Okay, so maybe I'm wrong. I'll give it some thought. (Though it will be hard to think of the white-as-bread-dough Koppel as being a real Jew, or Whoopy Goldberg... or Madonna.)
Note to the Mod: I looked far and wide for my "Jena 6" post and wasn't able to locate it. Methinks you might have tossed it out because of my negative comments about Ted Koppel. If that's true, then please note the context above in how I view the guy, i.e. a liberal phony impersonating a Jew (so as to bask in the associated prestige). And so I respectfully ask that you not toss this thread in the circular file on account of my comments about him. Thanks! (And if I'm altogether wrong, please forgive!*s*)
