re: #610 treasured people

Sarah Palin wears a magen David / star of David. You can see it here at 1:25 of this interview. I know people will find content of interview objectionable but I have never seen a political figure wear such an obvious sign of identification with the Jewish people.

Oh dear G-d please no. Please G-d no. We need her substantially less than we need Madonna and her “kaballah center” stuff. With that, I am going to get some work done and sulk.

Ohhh and Obdi. There is nothing wrong with being proud of one’s cultural heritage - provided you are proud of the civilized things your people did and not the bad stuff. Most cultures have many things to be proud of. Most have many things to be ashamed of.

Frankly the idea of adding Palin to the list (real or imagined) that people don’t like Jews for is distressing.
