Republicans Praise Jim DeMint's Acquired Moneygrubbing Jew Skills

A Democratic state senator in South Carolina recently opined inThe Statethat Sen. Jim DeMint, while rather deft in the arts of being tragically insane on a national level, does a poor job of bringing money home for his state, SOME OF WHICH MIGHT HELP. An unfair criticism? So unfair!, declared "Bamberg County GOP Chairman Edwin Merwin and Orangeburg County GOP Chairman James Ulmer" in a response. Let's see how they made their case! "There is a saying that the Jews who are wealthy..." OH GOD.

"There is a saying that the Jews who are wealthy got that way not by watching dollars, but instead by taking care of the pennies and the dollars taking care of themselves," Ulmer and Merwin wrote in a joint letter published by The Times and Democrat. "By not using earmarks to fund projects for South Carolina and instead using actual bills, DeMint is watching our nation's pennies and trying to preserve our country's wealth and our economy's viability to give all an opportunity to succeed."

EDITING, the cave men once called it. "Ed, Jim, I think we should edit out your crazy awful anti-Semitic quip here," the cave editor would say.
