Partly because the Holocaust didn’t happen in America (unlike slavery, or the genocide of the Native Americans), or with direct American participation or collusion. And partly because, as with the saturation teaching of the Holocaust...

The other day I wrote a post complaining about the informal shunning of Republicans in Hollywood. Several ATW readers thought my analysis was incorrect. Vehemently. I can't be right!

Those fine people at the ADL have polled Americans on religious values, anti-semitism, the meeja and all sorts.
