SC Republicans at it again (Representatives, party, county, elect)

Two SC county Republican party chairmen use a stereotype of Jewish people to defend Sen. Demint's position on earmarks.

Can you eloborate on what your opinion is of this piece? I'm curious to know where you stand.

I'm bothered that elected representatives in my home state continue to embarrass the state and its citizens, via ignorance and/or malice. In this instance, I think it was the former, but there's been plenty of the latter, too.

And I'm more and more thankful for Lindsey Graham, who continues to act like a statesman in the midst of all the heated partisan rhetoric.
