Jeremiah &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com\/2009\/06\/10\/wright-them-jews-wont-let-obama-talk-to-me\/\">Them Jews aren&#8217;t going to let him talk to me<\/a>&#8221; Wright,<\/p>\n<p>Apart from fact that you spoke on the day a white supremacist shot a security guard at the U.S. Holocaust Museum (once again, your timing is impeccable), there are only a few things I have to say to you:<\/p>\n<p>First, I have yet to receive my Protocols of the Elders of Zion Secret Decoder Ring, despite sending in the required two cereal box tops, the completed, photocopied application to be a Junior Elder, and proof that my mother is Jewish. Personally, I thought that her affidavit about being forced to attend <a href=\"http:\/\/www.jacobneusner.com\/\">Jacob Neusner<\/a>&#8216;s piano recitals when they were growing up in Hartford was both ingenious and obviously genuine, but either the envelope got lost in the mail or someone intercepted it. I have been thinking of blaming someone, but I have yet to narrow down the possible list of suspects.<\/p>\n<p>Second, to hurl this invective a week after it&#8217;s becoming pretty clear that President Obama is, in fact, pressuring Israel to stop expanding or creating new settlements? Yep, that&#8217;s a sign of the Victorious Conservative Jewish Conspiracy if I ever saw one. Or maybe you were talking about the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.jstreet.org\/\">J Street<\/a> Conspiracy? Please make sure you identify the correct Jewish conspiracy, because they have different addresses and phone numbers, though I&#8217;m fairly sure the phone numbers both end in &#8220;666.&#8221;&nbsp; <\/p>\n<p>Third, I haven&#8217;t heard personally from the president in over three weeks, and I suspect he&#8217;s starting to listen to others at this point. To be honest, he hasn&#8217;t called me since I suggested that Peter Sagal become the Official White House Jester. Well, actually, if you want to know the truth, he hasn&#8217;t called me since the election, the ingrate after all I&#8217;ve done for him. Okay: he has <b>never<\/b> called me. But I suspect that&#8217;s beside the point. If we <b>were<\/b> good buddies, despite my being a lousy point guard, the president would probably follow his own counsel. That&#8217;s probably been true for most of the presidents we&#8217;ve had, and since he and Michelle have steadfastly refused to get a bearded dragon, he&#8217;s also ignoring my wife as well as me. <\/p>\n<p>Fourth: you want the two pink pills in the morning and the green one at night. Don&#8217;t forget to take a glass of warm milk with the green one, since you can get an upset stomach if you forget. <\/p>\n<p>Yours very agnostically Jewishly,<\/p>\n<p>Sherman<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dear Rev.
