Re: Gregg refuses nomination as Commerce Secretary


Wasn't that long ago, shortly after 9/11, that some Arabic prince came to New York City, and handed Rudy Giuliani a check for some $10 million (if memory serves). The prince said it was to help the families stricken by the disaster, who had lost loved ones, etc., etc. Giuliani thanked him with all decorum, praised him, and accepted the check.


Then the prince made a few mentions about how terrible the 9/11 attacks were, how the Jews were responsible, and expressed a hope that the U.S. would now start thinking twice before supporting various programs to help Jewish people.


Giuliani looked at him for a moment. Then he handed the check for $10 million back to the prince, and walked out.


And now Gregg has done the same, under similar circumstances.
