Unbelievable

I am at a complete loss for words about this. These are the kind of things that that make me think we are truly doomed as a species.

I was more shocked by the headline: "Joe Lieberman Admits To Being Part Muppet," further down.
Now, that shakes my faith in humanity. Who knew?

Oh Com'on Will! The Muppet thing is a farce, a parody. People drinking Hitler wine is just plain sickening.

At least it brings them out into the open...we can definitely say, anti-semitism exists. It's quantifiable this way.

I don't think I have words or maybe I have not been able to get my mind around this. It is so incomprehensible to me.

This is old news, Val. This guy's a marketer more than a vintner of swill. He's the kind of slime that during the 1930s would have put on the brown shirt if he thought it would make him an extra deutsch mark or two. He's like those apparatchiks that laud over Fidel when they could care less. They just want the extra scratch and noteriety.

Whatever the reason is Will, it is still sickening.

The guy's actually got a pretty insightful comment at the end: "It's strange that Stalin murdered 15 million people, but there is no fuss about the bottle. And for the labels with Hitler and Mussolini I ended up in court". I'm Jewish, and I have no sympathy for people who make light of Hitler's crimes - but if the Europeans have a blind spot for anti-semitism, they have a blindfold and earplugs when it comes to the horrendous evils of communism.
