"What will you tell the President when you see him?" was my daughter Eva's first reaction when I told her I'd been invited to the White House Channukah party (Actually, it was her second reaction. Her first was, "Take me!"). Kids are innocent that way. They don't realize that when you have over a hundred people crowding the leader of the free world, it's not so easy to get in a word edgewise.
But I got lucky. It's not what I told the President that mattered, it's what I heard him say when few people were paying attention.
After the president made his Channukah remarks and the lighting ceremony was over, he came down to greet the thick crowd of guests along a receiving line.
Because the Glatt kosher lamb chops were so amazing, and my friend Selwyn Gerber and I were completely immersed in the shmooze-with-every-cool-Jew routine prior to the President's arrival, I came late to the waiting crowd, which means I ended up about four rows back.
Here's where my luck kicked in. There was an imposing and tall white-haired gentleman to my right who had a booming voice and was determined to say something to the President (I think he may have had a few single malts, but that's another story.)
So, when the president got closer to us, and I was prepared to launch my very tame, "Mr President, do you have a message you want to share with the Jews of Los Angeles?" line, THE MAN TO MY RIGHT launched the most brilliant Presidential Channukah greeting of all time:
"Mr President," he said in his booming voice, "when I told my Christian friend I was coming to a Channukah party at the White House, he told me, 'I didn't know the President was Jewish!"
The President let out a serious belly laugh. But in all the commotion of people asking other questions and everyone clicking their smart phone cameras, it was easy to lose sight of the president to see if he had anything to say.
I kept my eyes straight on him. It was clear that the "President was Jewish" idea had intrigued him. After about three or four seconds, as he was walking away, and looking at no one in particular, the President just said, "I am, in my soul."
So, there you have it: The leader of the free world says he's Jewish, in his soul.
Happy Channukah, Eva.
I do not believe G-d will be scorned.
Maybe Hitler said he had a Jewish soul and it just wasn’t reported /sarc
"The Trostkys will make the revolution and the Bronsteins will pay for it."
Comments of a Rabbi in response to Trotsky refusing to help his fellow Jews in Soviet Russia. Lev Bronstein aka Leon Trotsky eventually did pay for the revolution when Stalin sent an assassin to drive an ice ax into Trotsky's head in Mexico in 1939.
See #67.
I hope not.
Dear Brother Barack ObamaI got your message. Hiding the religion for political purposes is not permitted. When a Muslim is asked about her/his religion, she/he must tell the truth. You think it is permissible by Shariah law to hide your religion to achieve some positions to be able to help Islam and to give a better service to Muslims. You are wrong, Shariah law doesn’t allow you to do so, your reason for hiding your religion Islamically is not a legitimate reason. You must rely on Allah (SWT) and avoid the satanic style of politics. If God wants you to be the President of the United States of America, you will definitely be the president, no matter you hide your religion or not, no matter you lie to American people or you tell the truth, so it is not worth to commit a big sin just for political purposes. You will be apostate by denying your religion, I advise you to avoid such a big sin. You must have trust in God, you must always remember that God has the absolute power to help you to become the President even if you tell the truth that you are a Muslim. Our rely must be only on God. You will be the President but it doesn’t worth to be a President by selling out your religion, it is not worth to lose hereafter which is permanent life for this short term life. You will be the President but this is a test from God to show to people that Senator Barack Obama chooses the right path or the satanic tactic. I advise you to be careful to pass this test of God successfully. May God guide all of us. Amen.
Kind regards,

“He’s muslim, then he’s christian, then he’s jewish. I think he’s just a liar.”..
Your final analysis seems to be the most accurate.
Wellllll....
He just MIGHT be a “son of Abraham”,

Yes Obama’s mother’s name was Stanley Anne Dunham because her father wanted a boy instead of a girl. So basically she had her name as S. Anne Dunham. now we no the roots of Obama’s rage and his being a girly man - his mother had a hatred of men and she always never felt loved by her father. Opps now I am slipping into Freud psycho bable
Excuse me. I just puked in my mouth a little. Be back in a bit.
Incredulous Cat is very ....... incredulous.
” I smell sulfur.”
Incredulous Cat is an excellent judge of character.
My left nut is black!
Plenty of Africans (and Asians and Europeans) have some Arab ancestry, but if Obama is the son of Barack Sr. and the grandson of Hussein Onyango, he's more Black African than Arab.
Hussein Onyango wasn't born Muslim. According to the family, he converted from tribal religion to Christianity and then to Islam.
Treyf!
Could be one of her husband's ancestors. Warren was the first husband. Bruce Mann is the second and current Mr. Liz Warren.
