I have a traffic counter on my ezine. It reveals that traffic on the site nowhere approaches rush hour. It's low density and quick, as a matter of fact. But for all that, there's one particular page that most visitors land on. Most reach it after a web search, and the search words they use to get there makes for odd reading:



From New York --
is jon stewart jewish


From Charleston SC --
jon stewart is a jew


From Curious in Berlin, Germany --
jewish jon stewart


From Jersey City, Chicago and Toronto --
jon stewart’s real name


Zephyrhills, Florida, wants to know --
jon stewart’s real last name

Aston, Pennsylvania, is on the line --
is jon stewart a Jew


And for variety, this from Los Angeles --
martha stewart jew

All these are from today.

I wonder if Stewart is secretly a Hebrew name.

*sighs* I wish the Most popular Jew was at least a Pro Israel Jew.

It wasn't that what upset me is that at the end of the vid he was upset that most people where on the side of Israel, like that was bad or something, or that the media doesn't show the other side of the issue. But Israel Vs. Palestine isn't like Republicans Vs. Democrats, Or Sane Person Vs. Sane person who just have different opinions, Hamas and Israel are not moral equivalents. Why are suicide bombing terrorists entitled to have their view displayed? That's what upset me.

"[N]o brains"? Jon Stewart? It's a whole new gloss on the word "brains" with which I'm not familiar.

I watched it. I understand your point. But criticizing Israel -- and I was one who questioned the Gaza invasion. After all, what really did it accomplish. That's a legitimate question -- is not the same as being anti-Israel.

I wonder how many such inquiries come from people who pronounce "Jew" as a two-syllable word.

No telling. But "jon stewart jew" does have something chilling about it.
