Then, you haven't been paying attention to her. Several journalists who have
sat beside her in the briefing room have said she would always make some
anti-Semitic commentary disguised as a question.

I knew you'd find some way of making this political.

Which you are welcome to.

 RS> Yes or no: Has Beck promoted "The Red Network: A 'Who's Who' and

I wouldn't know. It seems to be the current claim of the left blogosphere,
though.

 RS> Is it written by Nazi sympathizer and vicious anti-Semite, Elizabeth

That's what they say.

Ah yes another left-wing bomb throwing blog.

 RS> Here's just one paragraph from that book:

 RS> Like the Reconciliation Trips (see) of the Fell. Recon., it seeks to
 RS> propagandize the anti-national internationalism and "reconciliation" of
 RS> all races and creeds into one, or none, that is part of the program of

 RS> Consciousness" is a typical program subject. Speakers for the debasing
 RS> and degrading Hindu, Mohammedan, Pagan, and Agnostic Cults are placed in
 RS> "fellowship" and on an equal footing with speakers for Jesus Christ. The
 RS> audiences chant a mixture of prayers and ritual from all of these. The
 RS> savage Mohammedan call of the muezzin as heard in darkest Asia is

And...?

I couldn't care less. I'm not a Buchanan supporter. What he does is his
problem.
