Clever, but you'd best avoid any form of joke which may be seen as
some as having any "anti-Semitic" overtones, even satirical, even
irony not understood by others. AOL and other ISPs have announced
they will have "zero tolerance." This in the wake of the Lieberman
VP candidacy.
"AOL spokesman Nicholas Graham said the postings were being
investigated, and offenders could have their accounts canceled or
suspended. ``We'll look at it on a case-by-case basis, but we do have
zero tolerance on hate speech,'' he said." (Yahoo news article)
Looks like Lieberman is set to get a free ride, courtesy of the PC
lobby. I wonder when he United States moved its capital to Jerusalem?
