I mean someone needs to answer those tough questions about dating, politics, drinking heavily, cheap sex, and, other important stuff right? Like this question about etiquette. Dear Other McCain how long SHOULD I wait until I say talk badly about a dead Jew-hating old hag? Confused in Columbus
Dear Confused in Columbus,
There are occasions when good taste requires that polite people say absolutely nothing about the latest news. Just in case such an occasion should ever occur (he says, in an entirely random and coincidental way), you should be prepared. It is important never to say the name of the recently deceased Jew-hating liberal hag, because that would not be polite. So I must sharply admonish Jeff Dunetz, who seems to have forgotten the requirements of decorum and propriety, and who also posted this memorably tasteless video:
One should always be polite and respectful, and never mention the name of evil Jew-hating liberal bitches who rot in Hell
See? Solid advice, what person could not use that?
Helen Thomas – “I knew exactly what I was doing – I was going for broke,” she told Playboy in the magazine’s April interview. “I had reached the point of no return. You finally get fed up … I finally wanted to speak the truth.”
Thomas, of course, left her perch as the dean of the White House press corps last year after telling a rabbi and blogger that Jews should “get the hell out of Palestine” and “go home” to “Poland, Germany and America and everywhere else.” Her family is Lebanese and she grew up in the Detroit area, home to one of the country’s densest populations of Arab Americans.
