Jewish Groups Irked by Cross on Republican Podium
Rate this a five and let people know how "inclusive" the GOP is. NOT.

Speakers at this week's Republican convention make their remarks at a wooden podium that some Jewish groups find offensive because its decorative panels appear to form the shape of a Christian cross.


A cross is even more visible in a waist-high gavel stand adjacent to the podium, leading some to question whether the party is trying to send a subtle message to its base among conservative Christians.

They are trying to make themselves the "christian" party.. The fact that it is a jewish group makes me suspect since it was partly because of an Israeli spy that we invaded Iraq.. They report seeing a cross, Rove denies it, and the sheep take it as a sign.. It is too transparent..
