Senator Macacawitz.
According to spy at a GOP hill-staffer bash on Friday, there's a new nickname for George Allen circulating in Republican circles: "Senator Macacawitz." When you're an object of ridicule among the Republicans you seek to lead, it's probably better to just turn the reins over to Jim Webb.

1. He should have been honest in the first place......
of course then he wouldn't have gotten as far as he has in the first place in the Republican party had he revealed his ethnic background to his Anglo-party bosses.

3. I prefer just Macaca. The witz part is just another hate epithet from
repugs. We should not use it.

4. Exactly. It's like saying we should dislike him because....
...he's both racist and a Jew. Er...what?

5. Being Jewish ain't something to "smear" someone with.

  I know that probably wasn't the intent but it goes places...it should't.

6. We should never use that. Adding "witz" to the end of anything when
referring to his or her being a Jew is very very wrong.
