Two Republican county chairmen in South Carolina penned an editorial praising Senator Mike DeMint.

Of course, they chose the most sensitive terms to rebut the accusation that Senator DeMint had not brought home enough in earmarks:

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. 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.

A note to my Republican Jewish friends. They aren’t wearing stylish hoodies, they are Klan robes.
