"Seriously, lib media mocking my dead grandpa?" Tagg Romney wrote in response to Politco reporter Alex Burns partially quoted the offending line. "George Romney was as good a man I've ever known. Inspirational leader, worked for civil rights, promoted freedom. We need more like him."
On Sunday's episode, Betty's new husband, Henry Francis, turned down a request that his boss, New York Mayor John Lindsay, appear with Michigan Gov. George Romney.
"Well, tell Jim his honor’s not going to Michigan," Francis said. "Because Romney’s a clown and I don’t want him standing next to him."

what's with all the Harry-hate? Did he start sucking in season 4 (which I watched sporadically and may have even missed a couple of eps), or something? I always found him to be one of the more likable, decent dudes in the office, particularly compared the likes of Pete or that pretentious beardo who got left behind after the SCDP break

also, ginsburg's dad benching him was way bizarre and strange

Harry Is a mediocre person but hilarious character. His fumbling is amazing, and I think he'll continue to be moderately useful but always just a bit off any mark.
I liked Don and Harry talking to the Stones fans, and Harry going with the more "savvy" one. The girl who was talking to Don is on the Fox show Lie to Me and I think she is pretty good!
Can you translate Ginsberg's dad for us, Mordy? I am perhaps misremembering it as yiddish, I was listening distractedly.
― mh, Tuesday, 3 April 2012 02:39 (twelve years ago) link
hebrew, he was giving him the traditional blessing you give your kids on friday night. there's a version for boys and for girls (when we bring shabbat in early for the baby, or it starts earlier, i say it to my daughter). the boys' version, which is what the show went with, translates as: "may god bless you as he blessed efraim and menashah. may the lord bless you and keep you. may the lord cause his face to shine upon you and be gracious to you. may the lord turn his face to you and grant you peace." (part of it comes from Numbers, 6:24-26 and doubles as the Cohan blessing on high holidays, you know, when they do the Spock 'live long and propser' thing and everyone looks away)
― Mordy, Tuesday, 3 April 2012 02:47 (twelve years ago) link
it was just super out of place. i don't know any jewish father who would spontaneously break out one of those in the middle of nowhere. either the writers are particularly tone-deaf about this, or maybe the dad is losing his mind or something?
― Mordy, Tuesday, 3 April 2012 02:48 (twelve years ago) link
giving that blessing is called benching?
― mizzell, Tuesday, 3 April 2012 02:51 (twelve years ago) link
sorry, i'm really tired + accidental code-switched. it's just yiddish for blessing

wow, I'm glad I asked! Sounds like it kind of reads as "writers want to make sure you know this guy is totally Jewish." I assumed it was some sort of blessing, although attributed it more to celebration related to his job? kind of wacky when juxtaposed with the "let's go get some women" bit, for sure

the blessing scene was great because it came right after him suggesting a pair of older/younger whores, he is obviously a little something

even at her most sympthetic/vulnerable it was noticeable that when she gets the good news, betty's second thought is "now i don't have an excuse for being fat." lol shallow betty.
jewish copywriter has a lot of promise for the show, i think. did you notice he wore jeans to his interview?
remember that peggy's boyfriend and roger's wife are both jewish.

Harry isn't terrible, just useless and overpromoted because he happened to luck out at the right time. But then this is an organisation where Roger still has a job, so...
Henry didn't tell Betty that Don had called to, y'know, find out whether she had cancer or not. That's going to kick off in time.
I didn't really expect the camera to follow Ginsberg home and I don't really get why it did. The character has potential but they've never really bothered to do that with Ken or Harry.
