This is funny:
In the midst of the George Allen Jewish flap, I wrote a post I headlined "Sen. Macacawitz." The term caught on in political circles almost immediately. Now, a Democratic campaign staffer has been forced to resign because she used it publicly.Which was my plan all along!
The story to which the loathsome Podhoretz refers is here. Apparently, the staffer was a field organizer for Al Weed, the Democrats' man against Virgil Goode in Virginia's Fifth Congressional District.
I really couldn't care less about the whole "macaca" thing, and I really could care less what Secretary Webb once wrote about women at the Naval Academy. I want Allen re-elected and residing at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue on 21st January 2009, and not much short of a Foley is going to change my mind.
Despite the fact that I don't care about the 'macaca' thing, I'm snickering in the seat at "Macacawitz". It's always rather strange how people find themselves Jewish come election time. Me, I don't think I have any Jewish relatives, but if I ever run for anything, then I will discover them forthwith. Y'know, sort of like discovering long-lost family ties when someone with your last name dies with a substantial estate.
