It’s a perfect combo. A fake faking fakes.

I met Bruce Jenner, and never doubted his male roots

This will no doubt cause her to lose her job. What will be her career path now? Talk show circuit?

Are we going with the Nazi one drop rule?

What Nazi "one drop" rule? A person who was half Jewish was a Mischling (first degree), one fourth Jewish, a Mischling second degree. Less than one fourth, was not a Jew (unless self identified). Field Marshall Milch's father was Jewish. Many Mischling and full Jews served in Wehrmacht. SS Office candidates had to prove pure "Aryan" ancestry going back to 1750.

The Nazis never had a one-drop rule. That was a refinement of the American South.

The Nazis defined a person with two Jewish grandparents as a mischling of the first degree, with one Jewish grandparent as one of the second degree.

First degrees were in theory discriminated against but not normally imprisoned or killed.

Second degree mischlings were generally treated as Aryans, though they might have trouble getting into the Nazi Party or the SS.

In theory, both groups were to be eventually sterilized, but they never got around to it.

Lesson learned: The much vaunted BBC is gullible.

What a joke of the LIB fools who promoted, trusted and accepted her. Maybe tomorrow she’ll decide she’s a salamander or something. The mentally unbalanced (aka LIBs) are somewhat amusing.

She seems to be doing her version of the 1959 book by John Howard Griffin, Black Like Me.

It would be interesting to get Jesse Jackson's take on her and whether she was 'down for the struggle'.

No problem, but I prefer “Aryans” in quotes.

So, Capehart is throwing her under the bus, and Gaskin is defending her. I’m confused. Let’s get Capehart and Gaskin on at the same time. Once they settle on the correct reaction, then I’ll know how to feel about this.

Maybe Caitlin Jenner can work her (a thousand apologies if “she” is offended by gender identity) into its new teevee program.

The picture her parents are showing the world as a blue eyed blond with freckles. That’s how her father described her.

I saw on her application, or whatever it was, she claims African, Caucasian and American Indian.

Fair enough. The way the Nazis used the term made no genetic or linguistic sense.
