Similarly, he said to the group, "I [am] not going to tell you again how I even feel about Israel, but why [are] we still talking about it?"

Does he really know about Judism or, does he know the version that is taught in Islamic Madrassa schools? That would be a fundamental question.

Well, I doubt this is true, since Obama really doesn’t seem to know much about anything except Saul Alinsky.

But certainly one thing is true: Obama knows less about America, its history and values than any other past president.

Let's see:
What a load of horseshit! This is in the same league as his claim to being the 4th greatest president! Is anyone swallowing this sh*t?

I think Semmens has given up....I heard he decided it was a futile effort when people continually think the white house press releases are more satirical than the fruits of his hard labor. /s
