    Phil,
    Don't you think it is ironic that the Wolfowitz scandal at the World Bank is associated with his relationship to a non-Jewish Arab girlfriend.

    Is Wolfowitz not then a great practitioner of Jewish assimilation?

    No one that I've read, left or right, has commented on the implications of his willingly being in an intimate (and assumingly respectful) relationship with an "other".

    Or should we judge on the basis of "do as I say, not as I do?"

    Where is the mirror?
