I’m not sure if the Daily Caller’s Jamie Weinstein is having fun with this (I hope he is), but if he is not, let me point out that "Jew" is a one-syllable, vowel-ended word, and that there are a lot of words (and malapropisms) that could start out with "Ju—"
Here’s how Weinstein transcribes it:
If asking a billionaire to pay the same tax rate as a Jew — as a janitor — makes me a warrior for the working class, I wear that as a badge of honor.”
If Obama is a) indeed a socialist and does indeed think that b) Jews are akin to janitors, we’re not doing so badly, right?
UPDATE: It seems the L.A. Times thinks he was saying "Jew" as well. This is as unserious as it gets. Bob Somerby, please weigh in!
