Gratuitous Jew
There’s more to come on this later, but consider this quote from LA Times’s David Shaw:
In a country in which 64% of the public say they attend weekend worship services at least once a month, mocking religion might not be the most effective way to win converts — and yet, on Good Friday no less, that’s exactly what the various Air America hosts repeatedly did.Two of the hosts gratuitously announced that they’re Jewish, and one — Marc Maron of the network’s “Morning Sedition” program — went on to make fun of Easter and Christmas rituals. [ All-left radio is lacking the right stuff for success, emphasis mine ]
As Lewis Black says, let’s repeat that because it bears repeating: “Two of the hosts gratuitously announced that they’re Jewish.” On Easter. How awful of them.
I mean, I don’t care if they are Jewish, but do they have to rub it in everyone’s faces? They should be Jewish at home, in private, where decent people don’t have to look at them.
