I feel safe in saying that Governor Thompson's campaign will not end well.

 

[JR]

Yeah, but they're lousy athletes.

 

[Fenian_Bastard]

Come to think of it, the odds of this thread ending well are fairly slim, too.

 

[The Big Ragu]

Wow. Just wow. The sad thing is I really think the dummy had no inkling how far he was sticking his foot into his mouth. With those kinds of instincts, how did he ever even get elected governor? You say something like that in front of a neutral crowd and you're screwed. How can you say that to an audience full of Jews?!?

It'll peter out and die.

I can't think of anyone--even our pal Yawn--who could defend this putz.

THERE WAS A JEWISH COMEDIAN ONCE WHO MADE A JOKE ABOUT MAKING MONEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Oz]

Sounds like Reggie White ... he tried to make a compliment but it came out all wrong.

"Hey, and your noses aren't THAT big!"/Thompson

Egads. :
Just eeeeeee-gads.

 

[zeke12]

Cringe-worthy, for sure.

Wonder how that would have played at 21's seder dinner.

How do you say, "You're ****ed" in Hebrew? Or Yiddish?

 

[Bubbler]

Link is dead. What's up?

Tommy Thompson was speaking to a Jewish crowd and lauded their money-making ability.

 

[Dangerous_K]

"We're there for ya, Tommy!"

 

[Boom_70]

I don't know.I thought that Gov Thompson proved to be a calming voice during the anthrax scare.

Just stick to calling him a schmuck..that's the limit on my Yiddish.

 

[PCLoadLetter]

Tommy's leading a charmed life, having this come out on a news day like this. Hardly anyone's going to notice.

He's still screwed, though.

I think we've hit the point where you can look at any candidate on either side and come up with an absolutely solid argument why they have no shot of winning at all.

What is it with folks from Wisconsin? Are they eating the wrong kind of cheese before they get loose with stupid comments like this?
