A Supreme Court nominee sitting in the dark waiting for you to come home

One of the many reasons I will not be having a Supreme Court confirmation hearing:

Sen. Graham: Where were you on Christmas day?

Ms. Took: Drinking the blood of Christian babies. What do you think Jews do on Christmas, you stupid fucker? Which you would know if you were more aware of all internet tradishuns, instead of, you know, expecting everyone to be practicing yours.

Whut? Why aren't you laughing? Aren't I white enough to make you feel safe? Or would you like to make a shout out to all your white protestant male friends who are being asked to share, and sometimes giving up their seats overrun by the rest of us Others? You know, if you want to share in the quaint Jewish American tradition of eating Chinese food on Christmas, better do it quick before Pan-Asian people working those kitchens are represented on the SC, too, and, you know, you just might have to learn to cook it yourself.

Hey come back here! *bounce, bounce* I'll bite your leg off!!!!

Whenever I start to think maybe this country is moving forward, away from this sort of ignorance, something like this happens, and I wonder if we're actually going backwards instead.

No, we're not going anywhere yet. That he did that isn't surprising. But like seeking_ferret, I am disappointed that Kagan's graceful comeback allows all the media to sweep it under and not one site wants to tackle it head on. Too many Jews have gotten too complacent, and that's bad.
