jewdar

a nonexistent ability that people claim to have. such people believe they can "sense" a Jew. obviously this is impossible unless the Jew has the distinctive hairstyle of the Orthodox sect or is wearing a yarmulke, since Jews aren't another race and look just like everyone else.

some guy: according to my jewdar, you're Jewish.
me: yeah, and the fact that I'm wearing a star of david had nothing to do with it. shmuck.

Judaism

the first monotheistic religion, basis of two of today's other major religions (Christianity and Islam). The Jewish holy book is the Torah, which is the basis for the Christian Old Testament. Judaism, except in its orthodox form, is probably the most accepting and loosest of the major religions of the Western Hemisphere. Sadly, its followers have been persecuted and ridiculed throughout the ages, and have always been misunderstood by the ignorant.

yes, I am a Jew. and to those of you who have said we are going to hell, remember that there is only one true judge of that, so don't be so arrogant as to put yourself in that position.

Bill Clinton

Incredibly able president who reduced the national debt to the lowest point in decades who was attacked and nearly impeached for something that over half of all presidents did and no one gave a shit. now used as an alternative to Bush suppporters rather than actually arguing their point.

"At least Bush didn't have sex and lie about it. He may have fucked our economy and our country, but he hasn't had extramarital sex (that we know of)!"
