Joseph Epstein, The Political Stupidity of Jews Revisited. Why do so many of my fellow Jews stay in the Democratic Party’s pocket?  Wall Street Journal, Mar 14, 2916 (op-ed)

(paragraph 1: "The story has it that during the George HW Bush administration, [then secretary of state] James Baker proposes to his boss an idea that would go against Israeli interests. 'The Jews aren't going to like it,' President Bush says. Mr Baker replies: 'They don't vote for us anyway—screw 'em!' Fast forward 15 years, when Rahm Emanuel proposes a different idea to his boss that would also go against Israeli interests. 'The Jews aren't going to like it,' President Obama says. Mr Emanuel replies: 'They vote for us anyway—screw 'em!' ")

My comment:
(a) 'em = them
(b) It is a joke, of course.
(c) Rahm Emanuel
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rahm_Emanuel
(born in 1959 in Chicago; full name: Rahm Israel Emanuel; Jewish; White House Chief of Staff 2009-2010, resigned to run an election; mayor of Chicago 2011- ; NEVER held the position of secretary of state)
(d) WSJ locks it behind a paywall. Yet you can imagine what the author argues about. Therefore there is no need to read the rest.
