-Caveat Lector- For those who may have missed it, Geraldo had Revvin' Jerry on 'Rivera Live' last night. Now, Geraldo is admittedly Puerto Rican and Jewish -- right of birth and conscience. Anyway, Geraldo lit into Revvin' Jerry and asked him to describe his remark. Apparently, Revvin' Jerry was doing some preachin' out Tennessee way and made the announcement -- not knowing there was a member of the media in the audience/congregation/whathaveyou. So, Geraldo, to his credit, in his muted outrage, asked Revvin' Jerry, "What were you smoking when you said that ?!?" (or close). Of course, Dershowitz was on "Hardball" just before "Live" so it's getting close to a showdown. I can't remember the exact words he used but Revvin' Jerry tried to weasel out of the Middle Eastern thing and brought up Italian and others as possible substitutes. Perhaps his emphasis was to suggest he thinks of all people without specific favourites or otherwise. Interesting thing I note on this issue is the apparent shift in focus to those who publicly have 'race' on their minds these days -- the House, the CCC, Revvin' Jerry, even here. I've yet to find anyone who can convince me there's a valid argument for discrimination/differentiation/whathaveyou -- beyond just making someone feel less inadequate. In this case, a mirrored room would enable the individual to have infinite identical iterations of a person just like ... how boring!!! ~~~~~~~~~~~~ A<>E<>R The only real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes but in having new eyes. -Marcel Proust + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + ---------- : From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] : To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] : Subject: Re: [CTRL] Falwell: Antichrist May Be MUSLIM : Date: Thursday, January 21, 1999 5:37 AM : : -Caveat Lector- : : In a message dated 1/20/99 4:10:46 PM Eastern Standard Time, : [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: : : << The original article from AP said Jew instead of MUSLIM which probably : reflects how somebody probably altered the original post BEFORE passing it : on the Internet daisy chain. : One might say that Falwells comments had been circumsized. >> : : Might even be Christian.
