Racial paranoia wafted heavily in the air over the weekend, dampening the intended message of anti-tax, and anti-government intervention the movement was trying to focus [...]

Talk About Chutzpah

This is the equivalent of a literary grenade, thrown into synangogues around America. Jennifer Rubin dishes on the “hatred” Jews feel toward Sarah Palin: …Her personal life made her even more alien to American Jews.
