Almost as unfortunate was the behavior of the ADL. Without our presence there, people going into the conference, including Holocaust survivors, would have been subjected to being shouted at and being called Nazis. The local head of the ADL came out to castigate us for making a scene. In fact, we neither called the media, nor created the scene. The only thing we did was create a presence, so the conference-goers could go in and out in peace.

A few weeks ago, the same ADL official wrote a letter to the Intermountain Jewish News all but accusing Gov. Owens of anti-Semitism for supporting vouchers. But he puts his head down when confronted with people shouting that they want to "finish the job Hitler started." What a relief to know he's got his priorities straight.
