MORAN apologized for his comments on Tuesday. The seven-term lawmaker said he framed his comments as he did because he was responding to a questioner who said she was Jewish. "I regret doing that," he said. Moran on Friday issued a statement saying he was stepping down from his leadership position "as a way to demonstrate acceptance of my responsibility for insensitive remarks I recently made."
"I will continue to reach out to the Jewish community and others who were offended by my remarks," he said. "Most importantly, I will strive to learn from my mistakes and listen to the concerns of my constituents."
Moran's controversial remarks drew sharp criticism from the White House and calls from some Jewish leaders for his resignation. Six House Democrats, all Jewish, have said Moran should not seek re-election in 2004 because of his comments.
Democratic Sen. Joe Lieberman (news - web sites) of Connecticut, a candidate for president, on Friday called Moran's remarks "baseless, divisive and offensive." _____AP associated Press____________ Dear Khalid while what U say are facts but the grip of the Jews on the American political arena is total, any change remains a wishful thinkning, The Guys have done their homework successfully ,they control money and media and subsequently the American foreign policies.
