for the record, i've never made fun of gabby, and i'm really not a fan of malkin, or twitchy, or much of the "conservative" echo chamber.

also, i'm not a republican, i'm an independent.

the peniscorn was a nice touch. thanks for the lulz!

based on what i said, or what you imagined, counselor? christians have been persecuted for thousands of years, too. see: christ. and who wanted him killed originally? you don't see us acting like victims in the face of this persecution: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Persecution_of_Chris...

no, american christians left religious persecution behind in europe and came here to start the greatest country history has ever known. that's our legacy. so much for our victimhood. and your legacy?

are you saying you want to be treated as a victim? that's about the best i can figure.

we're talking about kids being molested by jews and the jewish community covering it up (you started the conversation), and now jews at-large are the victims? lol. fascinating non-sequitur, counselor.

your words: "We are in fact a nation of laws. We are NOT a nation of laws… and then whatever the ultra-orthodox community wants to do."

what is the d.a. going to do if he doesn't have any witnesses willing to talk? you want him to violate the 4th amendment perhaps?

stay on point and leave the victimhood for the real victims here - the kids being raped.

this is what happens when victimhood runs amok. you can't even criticize jewish people when their culture not only accepts child rape, but covers it up. who are the *actual* victims here? the ultra-orthodox jewish community at-large, or the children being raped?

as a christian, i find this level of double-standard infuriating. as you pointed out, if anyone criticizes jews for any reason, even child rape, they're accused of being an anti-semite. this sort of victimhood has worn out its welcome in america.

good on you for speaking out against those who share your faith. now, let's help these children. what else do you intend to do?

and yet conservative investors won't invest in any new media/social media startups. they'll only give their money to conservative beltway orgs who claim they've got the next great new media/social media thing coming that's going to have an impact on the political landscape (which they NEVER deliver) - and the money continues to be wasted on those beltway orgs' dumb ideas.
