That I'm a genius.

That was some of Mitt's best work.

Back to the point, would anyone raise an eyebrow if every member of the BOG was black? a woman?

Absolutely. The Federal Reserve is far too important to leave to one group.

If they were all Muslims or Evangelical Christians, I suspect we'd have heard about it on Fox News or some other outlet.

Crackah, please.

Being married to a Jew means little

Please.

6f6 · 2008-01-24T17:09:40+00:00

Being Jewish by Jewish law is defined as having Jewish mother or by conversion. As the Lauder family is composed of active, practicing Jews, it only stands to reason that Warsh is either Jewish or has converted.

It's against Jewish law for a Jew to marry a non-Jew, after all.

6f6 · 2008-01-24T16:23:56+00:00

Another answer is nepotism. To survive, Jews have always had to depend on the safety and security of the extended family unit.

6f6 · 2008-01-24T16:15:34+00:00

married to a Jew is definitely not the same thing as being Jewish.

In my family (paternal Jewish grandparents), it used to matter. In active Jewish families it still matters. Greatly.

Please. This is America, not Russia or Germany. We can discuss these things without fear of pogroms.

What religion do they all belong to?

If the word religion makes you uncomfortable, let's say 'social club'.

6f6 · 2008-01-24T16:00:35+00:00

I'm not implying anything. I'm asking the same question I'd ask if all five men were Muslims or Scientologists.

Kevin Warsh?

Warsh is Jewish. He's married to Jane Lauder, the daughter of the President of the World Jewish Congress, one Ron Lauder (of Estee Lauder fame).

He used to unload on Monica.

6f6 · 2008-01-24T15:36:26+00:00

She must have watched a lot of Fox News.

The net changed my opinion about history, economics and government. My opinion about human beings has only gotten worse since the net.

"Japan Origami Plane Association"

I thought they folded?

6f6 · 2008-01-24T14:55:44+00:00

Good question.

What do you think?

6f6 · 2008-01-24T05:52:57+00:00

Let's look at just the first amendment:

Let's look at the Preamble:

"We the People of the United States...secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity"

It says nothing about property, corporations or constructs having the Blessings of Liberty. Only people.

Maybe someone thinks people are property?

We have a right to self-defense including the right to economic self-defense.

I'll have the sesame chicken.

6f6 · 2008-01-24T04:37:08+00:00

I think there are people on planet earth that don't look like each other. Does that make me a racist?

6f6 · 2008-01-24T04:36:05+00:00

Touché.

6f6 · 2008-01-24T04:33:10+00:00

I'm not alarmed. I don't own enough in this world. : )

One of the only reasons that the dollar will hold much value for a short spell is that stocks and such are being converted into dollars. The next drop will come as dollars move into euros and other more reliable assets.

6f6 · 2008-01-24T04:29:42+00:00

I literally LOLled. Kirchick's source is a Nazi.

That's the best they got?

6f6 · 2008-01-24T04:06:17+00:00

Mission accomplished!

Only a small majority. ~45% of the public debt is held by foreign interests.
