Tommy Thompson made a dumb comment. So why is Fox's Bill O'Reilly protecting him?
This is sick! O'Reilly defends this politician because he's White and Catholic. And he does this in the face of the Virgina Tech murders, where it's clear that the killer has problems that were brought to the surface by racial isolation.
I dream of the day O'Reilly's taken off the air. He spreads hate amoung those who are White who can be swayed by him.
Thompson says making money 'part of Jewish tradition'
Republican presidential candidate later apologizes
WASHINGTON — Republican presidential candidate Tommy Thompson told a Jewish group Monday that earning money is "part of the Jewish tradition," a remark for which he later apologized.
"I'm in the private sector and for the first time in my life I'm earning money," Thompson told the Religious Action Center of Reform Judaism. "You know that's sort of part of the Jewish tradition. ... "
Later, he added: "I didn't (by) any means want to infer or imply anything about Jews and finances. ... What I was referring to ... is the accomplishments of the Jewish religion. You've been outstanding business people and I compliment you for that."
Thompson spokesman Tony Jewell said the former Wisconsin governor, who is Catholic, was sorry.
