Another 57 States moment, Who taught Obama about Hanukkah?

[Sallow]

In another 57 states move, apparently totally clueless about the traditions of Hanukkah, our downgraded President light all 8 candles at once and weeks early

Who taught Obama about Hanukkah?

Khalid Monsour?

His uncle that liberated Auschwitz?

You do know that Hanukkah is a relatively minor Jewish holiday right? You also know that a recent poll in Israel ranks President Obama pretty favorably..right?

Degrading Jewish holiday to appease the Messiah?

Your acumen in matters of Judaism and the world of Finance are simply astounding.

What temple do you attend? And what financial firm do you work at? And where does one subscribe to your newsletter?

It's the 8th day of Channukah already?

Are all Obama's advisors as dense as he is? He is amazing. There had to be political reason for this act. Don't think he'll get many votes from the Jews...Chritstians either for that matter.

Ed Koch..who you probably don't know..has endorsed Obama and is campaigning for him in Florida. That in itself is huge in the Jewish community. And the vote against the Palestinian state was a big crowd pleaser. He will do well among Jews, who are largely liberal.

The group he won't do so well with is White Evangelical Christians..who are largely do not like those outside their group.

what you're hearing are neocons and evangelicals on their continued obama derangement ride.... but they weren't going to vote for him anyway.

you're correct, though. most jews, while they may have some issues with him, really know that though he and netanyahu really seem to dislike each other, it hasn't really affected policy... since our policies as a whole haven't changed. but that actually requires rational thought. also, most jews aren't going to vote for someone who's anti-choice, anti social security, anti medicare, anti health care reform, anti-education, anti-environment, anti-global warming, and so on and so on...

and the GOP base refuses to nominate someone who isn't those things.

"Appear"? Really? All the evidence is Obama hates Netanyahu. Who probably considers Obama an idiot.
Of course policy has changed.
Most Jews are self-destructive morons. You seem to be from that party.

I largely agree with you..but what I find annoying is that many in the Jewish community are "one issue people"..and that "issue" being Israel. Any sort of rational criticism of the state is immediately met with derision. It's like the Cubans in Florida ( Who are largely conservative ).

At some point the Israelis are going to have to deal with their neighbors. And it doesn't help that they have a de-facto apartheid state and are largely belligerent toward even the more moderate Arab states, like Jordan.

rational criticism isn't shut down. anything that threatens the safety and security of israel IS.

and the minute someone uses the word "apartheid" in reference to israel, when there are 11 MUSLIM states, many of which wouldn't even let me enter the country, is what shuts down conversation.... because it shows the person speaking has an inherent hostility toward israel.

Cognitive dissonance anyone?
These are Jillians allies on the Democratic Left: Israel haters and Jew bashers.
Enjoy.

Get Helen Thomas into the discussion and you realize how many liberals are antisemites.

My sons were bar mitvah at 2 different temples: a conservative temple in Bayside and then a reform temple in Armonk. Both times, after the Rabbi got to know me they asked me to convert.

I worked for EF Hutton out of college until I was hired as the first analyst hired by Related Capital. Worked at Related for about 18 years.

whining idiots...

but i do appreciate all the non-jewish people feeling our pain.

Un freeking believble..!!!

You just absolutely CANNOT hold his feet to the fire for anything can you???

This was a gaffe on his part, and he gets a pass... wow, just wow



After Obama was done with the Menorah, it looked like a Liberace candelabra

Getting into the holiday spirit Obama was brimming with jokes and good wishes. "We’re jumping the gun just a little bit," he noted. "The way I see it, we’re just extending the holiday spirit. We're stretching it out. But we do have to be careful that your kids don’t start thinking Hanukkah lasts 20 nights instead of eight."

Obama seemed particularly jovial as he said, "So while it is not yet Hanukkah, let’s give thanks for our blessings, for being together to celebrate this wonderful holiday season. And we never need an excuse for a good party." He later noted, "We can't wait to give you a hug and a kiss and wish you a happy holiday."

From that ultra-liberal, anti-semetic rag ynet:
Obama celebrates Hanukkah in White House - Israel News, Ynetnews

Will Obama be celebrating Easter next week? How about July 4th sometime in January?
Frankly I think it's a little insulting. Like Hanukah will interfere with his vacation time or something so he'll push it where it fits his schedule. He is not celebrating anything. He is campaigning, as always.

Our company Christmas Party is tomorrow night, I'll call and tell them to cancel, because Christmas isn't for two more weeks!

 

[The Infidel]

Its disgraceful the lengths the left will go to protect Obama from criticism.

Are there really Hanukkah parties where the candles are all lit at once?

If so, I stand corrected.

 

[Teals_Of_Wonder]

Obama and his supporters think that Jewish, Amish, and Polish people are all the same thing, just like his supporters think that Japanese and Chinese people are all the same and all speak Chinese.

If it'll prevent you from getting drunk and barfing in the punchbowl again it'll be worth it.

Anythig is possible but, no. That is not what is done. He had 8 days to do something and instead pushed it here. Actually I wouldn't care if he had done nothing, as he's hardly Jewish.

 

[WillowTree]

Has he lit the Christmas tree yet?

So in your elitist snotty world no one need bother empathizing with the Jewish people.. did I get that right ass wipe?

and your point is what exactly? he did it on purpose?

 

[DontBeStupid]

It's amazing the lengths the radical right will go to try and create controversy.

Y'all need to chill the fuck out and have some more nog.

I don't think you can set yourself up as an authority, you're so unbalanced your left hand drags the ground.

the list you made and how you fashion it is the usual ignorant blather, its anti reason and logic.

when I see those statements, it just remains me that you possess a HUUUGE smelly hamper of Hack from you which you seem to pull an inexhaustible supply of inane stupidity.
