So you must be right. I have noticed some anti-Semitic comments at Kos. I've also experienced anti-Semitism personally at Democrats.com being accused of putting my allegiance to Israel ahead of my allegiance to the U.S. And it was the forum MODERATOR who wrote this! But let's not make the mistake that anti-Semitism is a phenomenon only of the left. Unfortunately, it is a malady that afflicts all groups & political persuasions to varying degrees.
