One data point I forgot to mention, from AIPAC. Hillary's speech mentioned anti-Semitism, its rise in Europe and prevalence in the Arab world, seven times. McCain mentioned it once. Obama mentioned it no times. He's not down with the dogma yet.

Obama is an Afro-centrist. What do you expect him to talk about?
Phil, this might interest you.
I am will carefully study this text. Another attempt to create a coherent tale that locates the enemy on the left, via the central flaw of theory vs practice, a highly ironic enterprise. His case study is Judith Butler via her LRB (London Review of Books) text, and via the "collectively" antisemitic German left from 1968 onward. (what would Daniel Cohn Bendit say?)
A little hint: He doesn't tell the reader that Dieter Kunzelmann received his bomb from the German secret services. And he must know, since he cites the source were it can be found.
I guess this is good vs bad scholarship.

David Mills discovered something interesting.
Wouldn't you expect the GOP's site be full of wonderful information about McCain?
Not so:

Ding, dong, the witch is dead; the wicked witch is dead!
Let's zero in those anti-semitism references. Hillary's 2008 speech to AIPAC reprises some themes from an earlier AIPAC address which is still posted on her Senate website. Here are the key lines:
"I have spoken out for years against anti-semitism in Palestinian schools. I'm appalled still today that Palestinian textbooks reject Israel's right to exist and describe Israel's founding as a catastrophe that it unprecedented in history. That is not education; it is indoctrination."
Three sentences, three lies. Pretty impressive:
1. "Israel's right to exist" — this, as we all know, is a code phrase. Without the strategic truncation, it reads: "Israel's right to exist AS A JEWISH STATE" — with all that implies. Such as the worldwide right of Jews to immigrate, while Palestinian refugees are precluded from returning to their homes. It is perfectly legitimate, as a political proposition, for Palestianians to oppose Israel defining itself as a Jewish state. To equate this with antisemitism is a gross distortion.
2. "Israel's founding as a catastrophe" — here, "catastrophe" is a translation of "al Nakba." The false conclusion Hillary wants you to reach is that Palestianians deplore Jews' survival of the Holocaust; deplore that Jews found security rather than being liquidated. Of course, "al Nakba" is a Palestinian narrative about their OWN suffering, dispossession, and exile. It has nothing to do with schadenfreude vis-a-vis the Jews. But Hillary would like us to think so.
3. "Education, not indoctrination" — Hillary denounces Palestinian education, knowing full well that within Israel, Arabs attend segregated schools with poorer facilities and funding than Jewish schools. Would this blonde harridan have toured Mississippi with Governor Ross Barnett during the Freedom Summer, denouncing the underfunded black schools as "indoctrinators of hatred against whites, and incitors of young bucks to aspire to raping white womanhood"?
Why, yes! Yes, I believe she would. So on this historic day, I bid GOOD RIDDANCE TO BAD RUBBISH!
"Obama mentioned it no times. He's not down with the dogma yet."

Under the Obama Caliphate, Rachel Hussein Ray will be running the kitchen.
"Under the Obama Caliphate, Rachel Hussein Ray will be running the kitchen."
Why is anyone worried that Obama might be a Muslim when he attended a radical Afro-centrist church for over twenty years? Shouldn't a different set of concerns be raised given that fact and his professed attitude towards average whites?
Would a Muslim do any more damage than Jewish or Christian Zionist traitors?
