Obama's Approval Ratings Among Jewish Voters Plummeting
Brian Koenig ^ | 9/26/11 | Brian Koenig

Posted on 09/26/2011 5:42:31 PM PDT by Freemarkets101

Obama's approval ratings, now a record-breaking low among Jewish voters, are almost as pathetic as his ability to omit gaffes from his campaign speeches (every speech he makes these days is a campaign speech). Spouting to the Congressional Black Caucus this weekend, the President somehow managed to confuse "janitors" with "Jews."

(LA Times) - When you start saying, at a time when the top one-tenth of 1 percent has seen their incomes go up four or five times over the last 20 years, and folks at the bottom have seen their incomes decline - and your response is that you want poor folks to pay more?

Give me a break.

If asking a billionaire to pay the same tax rate as a Jew, uh, as a janitor makes me a warrior for the working class, I wear that with a badge of honor. I have no problem with that.

Yes, he used the word Jew and billionaire in the same sentence. Now, I'm not sure what kind of ballyhoo was circulating in the President's head to make this rather odd Freudian slip, but I do have a suggestion. After all, when observing his latest approval numbers - particularly among certain demographics - it's obvious why he would have Jews on the mind.

An annual poll by the American Jewish Committee (AJC), released Monday, showed only 45 percent of Jews approving of Obama’s performance, a significant drop from the 57 percent who approved of his performance in the 2010 AJC poll and a much larger drop from the percentage of Jews who actually voted for Obama.

On a side note: Only five months ago, 83 percent of blacks were “strongly favorable” of Obama’s performance, but a new Washington Post-ABC news poll, released last week, found that number drop to 58 percent. So that brings us to the big question: What if he accidentally used "blacks" and "janitors" in the same sentence? Yikes. I'm thinking Maxine Waters would be even more furious than she is now.

Since it was a black caucus, he effectively told the blacks they were on a bunch of janitors.

How the hell do you read Jew instead of janitor??

George Soros is both a Jew and a billionaire AND Obama’s favorite Jew/billionaire. Pull down Obama’s shorts and you will find Soros’ hand up Obama’s butt.

This is just too much fun. But thinking back, isn’t this the same guy who’s so clever he mesmerized David Brooks with only the crease in his pant’s leg?

any Jewish that support Obama is either:

1 - not a real Jew

2 - no better than the Jews that worked for the Nazis in the camps

I sent this to my wife’s liberal uncle. His response?

“If Rick Perry is elected, will I be forced to go to church?”

This is the type of loony response I get from Democrats when I point out Obama’s dumb ass (and often racist) statements. When they know they are wrong, they spout gobblygook and shut down the conversation.

Meanwhile, look what pops up at the bottom of a page of Google searches for Obama Jew janitor....

http://www.google.com/explanation.html"

 One reason is that the word “Jew” is often used in an anti-Semitic context. Jewish organizations are more likely to use the word “Jewish” when talking about members of their faith. The word has become somewhat charged linguistically, as noted on websites devoted to Jewish topics such as these...

Oh, Barry.....

It's hard to find good teleprompter prompters. Just last week one of the prompters had the Prez and Congressman Ellison talking about intercontinental railroads.

Come now, this was just a little slip of the tongue, signifying nothing. You know, like when he told George Steponallofus about his Muslim Christian faith.

Some of us Jews long ago were on to Obama as a marxist.

All you had to do was to look at his neighbors in Chicago to see the Communist Party USA and Black extremist connections - Frank Marshall Davis, CPUSA; Rev. Wright (both black extremist and marxist ties, esp. to Cuba), Rev. Farrakhan (Nation of Islam), Quentin Young (CPUSA/DSA), Don Rose (CPUSA sympathizer), Valerie Jarrett (leftist family ties to the CPUSA), David Cantor (CPUSA/SOviet operative), David Axelrod (a can of family worms that needs to be opened), Bill Ayers (unrepentant communist terrorist and his unrepentant communist terrorist wife, Bernadine Dohrn). I’ll also throw in the leftist, late Rabbi Arnold Wolf (a couple CPUSA front memberships).

That is one helluva neighborhood. Oh, and Valerie Jarrett had her eyes on Van Jones, the wacko communist, long before they got him into the White House. She told us that. This really begs an investigation.

And then we have Maoist Anita Dunn, another unrepentant red.

I think you get the picture. Color it Red. I saw this many years ago and tried to warn the people, esp. my fellow Jews.

Now they are learning, these Jew janitors. I hope they get full sanity before Nov. 6, 2012.

As for George Soros - born Jewish, turned Nazi-supporter during WW2 (KAPO). Now he’s just a rich communist piece of shit who is hopefully on his last breath. He should have been jailed for the criminal that he is when he was convicted in France of currency manipulation that brought so much trouble to so many people.

When he dies, there will be both a Swastika and the Hammer & Sickle on his tombstone, and I’ll piss on both.

“any Jewish that support Obama is either:

2 - no better than the Jews that worked for the Nazis in the camps “

Why would that be truer for Jewish people than hard working, honest, patriotic Americans of any religion?

Tell him, "of course not, you'll be proscribed."

Oh, have the Jews finally realized that Barak Obama is not an African-American but is an African-Arab?

But the vast majority of Jews will still vote for him.

Janitors, er, Jews have no better friends than true, Bible-believing evangelical Christians.

Jesus was a Jew. The Bible is about Jews, for Jews, and with arguable exceptions, written by Jews.

The Bible says the Jews are His chosen people.

Genesis 12
The Call of Abram
1 The LORD had said to Abram, “Go from your country, your people and your father’s household to the land I will show you.

2 “I will make you into a great nation,
and I will bless you;
I will make your name great,
and you will be a blessing.[a]
3 I will bless those who bless you,
and whoever curses you I will curse;
and all peoples on earth
will be blessed through you.”
