So asks the WaPo’s Richard Cohen, who likes to use his own Judaism as a badge of moral authority on such matters. And try as he might, Cohen can’t find even a hint of anti-semitism — writing off the very idea as a “reprehensible” “right wing” plot to discredit the protests.

Note that he leads with Bill Handel being sarcastic, but frames it as serious commentary.
Theft renews rightwing focus on O and teleprompter. Feels racial to me–as if he’s stupid without it. In truth, he has off-cuff record.
He sure does, and it ain’t good
When the Communist Party and the Nazi Party both back the OWS protests, then it is a pretty good guess that some good old fashioned Jew-Hate is nearby.
[…] I wonder what Richard Cohen would make of all this. My guess? He’d help the professor sew yellow stars on the sleeves of those who even took […]
