Sadly, we'll get apologetics and excuses.

In a recent thread, it was discussed about how "those who claim the high road will fall harder."

 It seems a little over the top to condemn someone for an employee allegedly saying one word taken according to a columnist who paraphrased. It have no idea how it was said, and I would like to hear the entire quote. But still, I agree with you in part, and I think Mr. Brock should apologize. I met Mr. Nacht and heard him speak. I don't know if he's Jewish, and I don't really care. So I don't know if the statement he's a "liberal, Jewish trial lawyer" is an accurate statement or not. I know this, those attributes are not bad things, in fact they good things to be.It just seems ironic to me that people who count Ann Coulter as their hero and spokesperson would condemn a guy for one stupid word.

I've never purchased a book.  I don't read her columns.  When she comes on TV I change the channel.

She's a hack peddling politics as entertainment on the lowest common denominator and I think she's done far more harm than good to the conserative cause.  I wish she'd just go away.  I don't even find her remotely attractive and wonder what people are thinking when they say she's "hot."

And another point of "clarity," I'm not condemning Schauer, yet.  I'm more than willing to give him the benefit of the doubt and assume that this is the first time he's heard that his staffer's an anti-Semite.  

Bringing up Ann Coulter can only serve one of two purposes - either excusing Ken Brock's comment by saying "your side has bigots, too" (which wouldn't be surprising from the party of "No Values"), or to get us to change the subject by bashing a conservative (again) and ignoring the problem at hand (Ken Brock's bigotry).

But if that's the case, you should be ashamed of yourself, too.  

Again, I'm by far the more patriotic American than you can ever dream to be, so name-calling from the likes of you doesn't bother me. But don't expect me, or anyone else, to accept or answer to an offensive nickname you made up based on your imagination.

Ahhh, more insults.  You're good at the double-faced vitriol we've come to expect from Democrat operatives.  "I'm not insulting you, you idiot."

It's a shame, I much like calling you Commie Guru.  If you're really running away from your progressive values, maybe we can drop the moniker as you pickup some conservative values.

As for Nick, I hear you talking, but that's' all with regards to your mouthpiece. You have the audacity to say you are not" condemning Schauer," but in your original post you say "Are these the sorts of people Mark Schauer surrounds himself with?  Bigots and anti-Semites?" Apparently, truth and honesty are not your strong points are they?

Democrat strawman argument.  Calling for action isn't condemnation.  If the Mediocre State Senator sends Ken Brock to the unemployment lines, we'll know how he feels about having anti-semite bigots on his staff.  Otherwise, we'll know that he condones that kind of behavior - and would be condemned.

"Jewish" is NOT an insult!  It is not dirty.  It is not wrong.  It's nothing to be ashamed of.  It's not a problem.  It doesn't make someone worse than someone else.

And if Schauer doesn't realize that and act accordingly then he's complicit in Brock's anti-Semitism and has no place running for dog catcher, let alone Congress.

Democrats have no problems with racists and bigots.  They find ways to excuse their behavior and give them passes.  

But then our Democrat friends demand that we condemn Ann Coulter?  A non-elected conservative, that they can't give us the quotes for?  And yet, they can holler up and down she's a racist.  Ed Schultz claims Hannity's a racist over some Vick comment (whose quotes I can't find, either).
