RWNJs unabated: Obama has turned Pesach (Passover) into a "black" holiday...

The struggle of the Jews leaving slavery in Egypt has nothing to do with civil rights in the 60s. It won't until blacks spend 40 years dying in the desert.


Surely an image that a racist like you relishes.

Thank you for playing, typsykatzenfotze.

Anyone who wants to equate Jews and blacks should consider comparing Israel to Liberia. Or any African country, for that matter.

You missed the entire point. Why am I not surprised?
 
Ok, I had to laugh a couple of times when I read this. This is rich, very, very rich.

Obama Manages To Bring Racism Into His Official Statement Marking Passover Weasel Zippers - Linkis.com


You see, Rrrrraging Rrrrrighties are squealing like pigs because once again, Pres. Obama, during the season, said something positive about Pesach:

It inspired Jewish families to hold fast to their faith, even during times of terrible persecution. It inspired young Civil Rights leaders as they marched across an Alabama bridge in search of their own Promised Land, half a century ago.

You see, that is bad. Bad, bad, bad. Because how dare a President compare the struggles of one group of people (the Jews in Egypt, thousands of years ago) to the struggles of another group today? How dare he?!?!?


Yes, that is just terrible! We cannot have this! Look what he also said:

This week Jewish families and friends have been celebrating Passover, a tradition rich in symbolism and meaning. Its observance reminds all of us that the struggle for freedom and the battle against oppression waged by Jews since ancient times is one shared by people everywhere.



How dare President Obama say that? That's horrible!

Oh, wait, he didn't say that. RONALD REAGAN DID.

Of course, all sorts of sights have picked up on this Obama Pesach thing, because it's just so terrible to compare the Jews' struggles to anything else, right?

Only, we Jews ourselves (Orthodox, Conservative and Reform) have been comparing Pesach to other struggles for freedom all over the place. There were special Haggadot (the retelling of the Passover story) made just for the dissidents in the Soviet Union, there are Haggadot for Womens' Rights, for LGBT rights, for Civil Rights in the USA, against Apartheid in South Africa, etc...

Obama Honors Passover Easter In White House Statements


Easter:

Michelle and I join our fellow Christians around the world in observing Good Friday and celebrating Easter this weekend. With humility and awe, we give thanks for the extraordinary sacrifice that Jesus made for our salvation. We rejoice in the triumph of the Resurrection. And we renew our commitment to live as He commanded – to love God with all our heart, soul and mind, and to love our neighbors as ourselves. I look forward to continuing our celebration on Tuesday when I host our annual Easter prayer breakfast as we remember the teachings of Jesus in our daily lives, stand with those around the world who are persecuted for their faith, and pray for peace, justice and freedom for all people.

Pesach:

Michelle and I send our warmest greetings to all those celebrating Passover in the United States, in the State of Israel, and throughout the world.

Tonight, for the seventh year, I’ll hold a Seder in the White House, and we’ll join millions of Jewish families as we retell one of humanity’s great stories of liberation. The Exodus was neither easy nor quick. The Israelites’ journey to freedom required them to choose faith over fear and courage over complacency. Above all, it required the works of an awesome God, who led them out of bondage with a mighty hand and an outstretched arm.

The story of the Exodus – the signs and wonders that appeared when hope seemed lost, the Jewish people’s abiding belief that they would one day reach the Promised Land – has inspired countless generations over the years. It inspired Jewish families to hold fast to their faith, even during times of terrible persecution. It inspired young Civil Rights leaders as they marched across an Alabama bridge in search of their own Promised Land, half a century ago.

And it continues to inspire us today. Tonight, my family will read the passage of the Haggadah that declares we must see ourselves as though we personally were liberated from Egypt. The Exodus reminds us that progress has always come slow and the future has always been uncertain, but it also reminds there is always reason for hope.

Like the Israelites who Moses led out of slavery long ago, it is up to us to never lose faith in the better day that lies ahead. In our own country, we can continue our march toward a more perfect union. Around the world, we can seek to extend the miracles of freedom and peace, prosperity and security, to more of God’s creation. And together, we can continue the hard but awesome work of tikkun olam, and do our part to repair the world.

From my family to yours, Chag Sameach.

Pretty sad that the Right even wants to make a political football out of this. It won't work. Not among smart Jews, it won't.

Oh, and BTW, did you know that Pres. Obama is the very first US President to actually wish us Jews "Chag Sameach" (the traditional greeting for Pesach) in Hebrew? Just wait until the next RWNJ wave starts: "Obama is a secret Zionist!!"


Yes, I am poking fun at RWNJs who are so butthurt, they cannot even let go at a time of year like this.

You see, Rrrrraging Rrrrrighties are squealing like pigs because once again

Well they are pork stenched


The fake Jew speaks again. even that idiot Stat should realize you're not a Jew by now...Jillian knows it.
