Ambassador nominee’s anti-Semitic remarks ‘a poor choice of words’

Biden’s nominee for Brazil posting claimed “the ‘Jewish lobby’ exerts undue influence over the Democratic Party with its ‘major money.’"

Elizabeth Frawley Bagley and her family contributed millions to the Democratic National Committee and to candidates W.J. Clinton, H. Clinton and B. Hussein Obama presidential runs.

"’The language you used in regard to the Jewish community, Israel’s influence on our election, and Jewish money have me concerned,’ Sen. Ben Cardin (D., Md.) said during the hearing. ‘The choice of words was fit into the traditional tropes of anti-Semitism.’

"’I regret that you would think that it was a problem,’ Bagley told Cardin. ‘I certainly didn’t mean anything by it. It was a poor choice of words, but it was something that the interviewer had asked me, prompted by something about politics.’"

Okay. “I am sorry you took my accusations of undue Jewish influence in the manner you did. The interviewer asked a question, and I answered it.”
