Man of the Year?

Jewdar’s coveted Man of the Year Award for 2007 (we know, we know, it’s a day or too late, but we had to make sure that all the ballots were in) goes to Will Smith. As many Jewdar devotees may know by now, not long ago, Mr. Smith made some comments about
Der Fuhrer which were, sensationalism notwithstanding, the kind of quite reasonable things, which any reasonable person would find eminently reasonable.
http://uk.news.yahoo.com/wenn/20071223/ten-smith-hitler-was-a-good-person-c60bd6d_1.html He did not say Hitler was good, but simply that Hitler
believed he was good, which is something that Jewdar can’t find any fault with. What Mr. Smith forgot, however, was that the world is not made up of reasonable and rather charming bon vivants like Jewdar; rather, it is made up of moronic dickheads with poor reading skills.
http://www.jdl.org/pr/smith.shtml What makes Mr. Smith a fresh prince, however, is that he refused to apologize for the misunderstanding. Instead, Smith (who it should be noted, once worked with a Jew to save the world from aliens) went on the attack.

So congratulations, Will Smith, for winning Jewdar’s coveted Man of the Year Award for 2007. And now that we have your attention, would it kill you to toss a bone to Alfonso Ribeiro every now and then? For God’s sake, the man’s been reduced to doing Dancing with the Stars.
