Some Jewish Liberals Becoming Disillusioned with Obama
Vocal Minority ^ | 6/13/09 | EricTheRed_VocalMinority

The following NewsMax article is by a prominent Reform rabbi (Reform Jews are the most liberal and Democrat-voting) who levels a serious charge against the President Obama: While he isn’t personally holding the gun that killed two security guards at the Holocaust Museum, Obama’s attitudes and policies are not helpful to Jews.

Obama Breeds Climate of Hate Against Jews Wednesday, June 10, 2009 9:12 PM By: Rabbi Dr. Morton H. Pomerantz

Next, influential Jewish lefty Marty Peretz has been especially critcial of Obama at his magazine The New Republic. [h/t Ed Lasky at the American Thinker]

Peretz’s forthcoming article “Narrative Dissonance” (dated July 1) is already available on-line. In it he deconstructs Obama’s Cairo speech and addresses the president’s dangerous historical ignorance of Israel-Palestine. It’s a long article, but well worth reading for those wanting to hear from a staunch liberal who is seeing big cracks in the walls of the new Camelot.

The fallout from Obama’s Cairo speech has been succeeded this week by comments made by his 20-year mentor Jeremiah Wright, who uttered the phrase “them Jews.” Wright subsequently explained he meant to say “them Zionists.” (which is about absurd an excuse as David Letterman explaining he didn’t mean to joke about the rape of Sarah Palin’s 14-year-old daughter; he meant ths 18-year-old daughter.) Ethel Fenig at the American Thinker blog comments on the Wright comments and his non-apology apology.

I sincerely hope more of my liberal-Democrat friends wake up before 2012 to realize the president they voted for is no friend of theirs.

They will again fall over themselves to cast their vote for Obama or any other liberal shyster on the ballot.

I guess those hopey-changey liberal Jews are gonna have a headache. Get what you pay for.

I can't wait to see what the AARP says about their golden boy now that he's talking about starving Medicare and rationing "healthcare" to the elderly so he can pay for his socialized one-size-fits-all scheme.

Obama made it perfectly clear who he was, what he thought, and what he intended to do. Now, he didn’t say those revealing things during campaign speeches, but it was there for anyone with the slightest curiosity to find.

But, these idiots didn’t bother, and went out and happily voted for the most anti-semetic President in American history. Enjoy.

That’s what you get for not listening to what that clown was saying, or looking into some of the investigations.

When will we ever learn to do our homework - elections do have consequences, don’t they.

Israeli Jews are some of the most courageous human beings in history.

American Jews? Well, not so much.....

I think you hit the nail on the head. Additionally there are probably some who know PFL BO’s positions but didn’t believe they were his “real positions”. You know “I am a social liberal but a fiscal conservative”...wink, wink.

Too few, too little, and WAY to late, at least for Israel and probably America...

>>>”A social liberal, fiscal conservative”>>>

I know someone who says this about them self and actually believes it sounds good. All it means is they believe the government should do everything for everyone but they want someone else to be taxed to pay for it.

Then there's the Frum crowd.

To them it is a conventional political wisdom which, roughly translated, means:

A large percentage of American Jews worship Socialism. They don't care about Israel, so it doesn't bother them that Obama is throwing Israel under the bus.

They may be slowly starting to realize that Obama's pro-Islam attitude may serve as a green light to Muslims (and anti-Semites in general) in the US to attack Jews.

NY Jews would vote for Hitler if he had a D next to his name.

Pray for America

What else did they think..........Did they not look at who he hangs with? Didn’t Obama get 78% of the Jewish vote?
