I like Shmuley Boteach, (I'm assuming that is who you meant?)? He is one of 
thoes guys that make you hope/believe that God is a "big tent" kind of guy.  


Out of curiosity did Schmuley say anything about the use of the term "blood 
libel".

You mean people *aren't* debating the appropriateness of Palin's use of the 
word?  Wow, ya coulda fooled *me*!

I'm more inclined to think that people are debating *Palin*, using the word and 
the murders as a pretext.

I mean, why in the world is "public civility" still being talked about as *the* 
issue following the murders? Because initially people thought the killer *might* 
be a right-wing Palin fan?

As the Rabbi Shumley piece pointed out, public civility is a good thing to talk 
about in and of itself, but as an extension of the murders? Nonsense.
