A little back, I wrote a post noticing that there are a lot of Google searches for “is Geithner Jewish?” and similar questions. Far be it from me to understand the workings of the Googlecosm, but I surmised that some of the people performing this search are anti-semitic or in some way looking for “evidence” of the great Jewish Financial Conspiracy, and the rest are actually Jewish miscellaneous people who are for some reason or another curious whether Timothy Geithner is a matzoh muncher. (With salt, and a little butter, if you please)
First things first: No, Tim Geithner is not Jewish.
Moving on: The original blog post is in the top 10 on Google for the search “geithner jewish” and probably a host of similar searches. And because of this, the post is receiving some traffic for these searches, which gives me a little more data to look at. Here are the top 10 searches containing “geithner” that delivered traffic to this blog this week:
The list, unfortunately, doesn’t reveal much about the intent of the searchers. (with the exception of “geithner creepy jew?” HOLY MOLEY, I couldn’t make this stuff up if I tried). But when the list starts filling up with “geithner jewish demon horns,” I’ll be sure to let you know.
Yours,
The Google Pollster

So… He’s not a jew, is he the devil?
I never post any opinion online. but I make an exception here because I’m one who googled “Geithner jew”. my reason is because Newt Gingrich is on tv blaming all bailouts on Geithner. including Bush’s $700B in ’08. Gingrich’s cryptic comment is always “Geithner was in the room”. criticism of obama by right heavily make reference to two names Ron Emmanuel and Geithner. I assume of course Emmanuel is a jew maybe I should google it! nah life’s too short.
