Another example of Democrat love thy neighbor in practice
Your hate parade: Staffer shames de Blasio with vile tweets
I am surprised that someone so open about his distaste for Jews did not exhibit any of it at the office. Was it just accepted by Mr. DiBlasio until it became public?
A staffer in Public Advocate Bill de Blasio’s office quickly resigned from his city post yesterday after The Post uncovered a string of his vile tweets targeting Jews, women and cops.
Anthony “Tony” Baker took aim at Jews in particular while using the Twitter handle “Hyman Doodlesack,” including one tweet last year when Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was at the United Nations.

“AIPAC makes me want to be a Nazi,” Baker tweeted March 5 in a reference to the American Israel Public Affairs Committee.
Two months later, he tweeted, “I need the best goddamn-Jew-lawyer money can buy!”
In June he wrote, “In BKB Park today taking in the Sun (GOD) + signing copies of my new book, Was Columbus a Homo or Was He Just a Jew? NOW in KINDLE #pride.”
In addition to attacking Jews, he insulted City Council Speaker Christine Quinn, the Democratic front-runner in the mayor’s race.
“No one wants to touché your vagina, Speaker,” he tweeted last May after Quinn graphically described her pro-choice stance during a press conference.
Baker, who also volunteered for de Blasio’s Democratic mayoral campaign, resigned after The Post inquired about the tweets.
“Nothing can excuse anti-Semitic remarks and vulgar insults about women. I am disgusted and shocked by these outrageous comments,” de Blasio said.
Baker isn’t the first de Blasio aide to cause a stink with offensive tweets.
Just last month, de Blasio scolded campaign worker Kicy Motley after The Post found a series of vulgar tweets, including: “F--k. The. Police.”
Baker, too, tweeted, “kill the police,” on Aug. 19, 2012.
But he had nothing but kind words for de Blasio, tweeting in November 2011:
“@BilldeBlasio Boy I love that f--king Dude, Bill de Blasio, and I can’t wait for him to kick Speaker Quinn’s bony ass in ’13. #winning.”
Baker started in de Blasio’s office as an unpaid volunteer last April, moving up to an administrative assistant on Oct. 19, 2012. He was working part-time, earning $15,600 a year, de Blasio’s spokesman said.
He also earned $500 a month as a part-time research assistant for the Fund for Public Advocacy, a nonprofit de Blasio controls.
