This is a very interesting post, because I think I agree with everything that
Mr. Tedrick says.  I certainly don't like it (and I have no reason to think
that Mr. Tedrick does), but I think that it's true.

Was he anti-semetic to say it??  Depends on his intent.  I really don't see
any reason to think so.
