Louie CK had a good bit about how tone of one’s voice can tell you alot too.

Often it’s just plain unnecessary and there to play to a stereotype, as when discussing the financial industry one says jew bankers instead of just bankers.

That’s it right there. Their Jewishness is completely irrelevant to the point he’s trying to make, except in his mind liberalism and Jewishness go hand in hand. It’s using the term Jew as a kind of exclamation point on whatever supposedly negative trait is being discussed, in the case of bankers it’s the stereotype of greed. In the case of laywers and judges it’s the stereotype of dishonesty and subversion.
