Keith Olbmermann on how the McCain campaign’s sleazy attack on Columbia University Professor Rashid Khalidi backfired when it turned out that McCain had given Khalidi’s non-profit over $400,000

Remember, buy Khalidi’s “Iron Cage: The Story of the Palestinian Struggle for Statehood” and give it out to friends who don’t understand the situation in the Mideast.

See also Glenn Greenwald’s savvy comments on the Neoconservative misuse of the charge ‘anti-semite’ to mean ‘disagrees with Neocons,’ thus cheapening the term.

Joe Klein questions the glib accusation that Khalidi is ‘antisemitic.’

And Jane Hamsher weighs in on Joe Klein’s courage.
