ENOUGH SAID!?

The feature article on Barack Obama fit him to a tee, all fluff and no substance. The sub-heading says that at every stage in his political career, Obama has reached out to the Jewish Community. Yet the only reaching out referred to in the article is that he sought backing from Alan Solow in Obama’s 1996 Illinois Senate run, the backing of Robert Schrayer in his 2004 U.S. Senate run, and named Boston philanthropist Alan Solomont as Obama’s fund-raising chief.
The article goes on to say that Obama has built relationships in the community to avoid murmurings about his divergences from pro-Israel orthodoxies. Obama has promised to use sustained and aggressive diplomacy combined with tough sanctions to prevent Iran from building nuclear weapons. This is exactly the course of action Jimmy Carter used to condemn 52 U.S. citizens to 444 days of being held hostage in Iran until President Reagan took office and got them released.
Obama told AIPAC and NJDC that Palestinian needs must be considered in working out a peace deal and that no one has suffered more than the Palestinians. He also is asking for reparations from the Israelis to be paid to the Palestinians.
By the time I reached the end of your article, I was still looking for the facts to support your headline: “At every stage in his political career, Barak Obama has reached out to the Jewish community”. I turned the page looking for the rest of the article but found nothing.
Here are a few facts that would help your readers make a more informed decision about Barack Obama:
Although his father & step-father are Muslim and Obama attended a Muslim school, he chooses to attend a church headed by Jeremiah Wright, a Black Muslim supporter of Louis Farrakhan and who is a harsh anti-Israel advocate and whose governing body has taken a series of anti-Israel actions.
Obama also gained the support of George Soros, a fierce foe of Israel who has openly proclaimed his desire to break the bonds between America and Israel and has written of his desire to erode political support for Israel. Soros called for concessions to Hamas after which Obama appeared with Soros at a fundraiser.
Another fund raiser for Obama was held at the home of former Knicks player Allan Houston who had publicly proclaimed that Jews had Jesus’ “blood on their hands” and are “stubborn”. The American Jewish Congress noted that Obama would not take any money from someone who had expressed the same sort of remarks about African-Americans. Obama’s spokesman said Obama would not return the money raised by Houston.
Obama has openly advocated outreach towards Iran, a state that makes clear its genocidal intentions towards Israel, funds Hezbollah and terrorism against America, Israel, and Jewish targets throughout the world. He seemingly excuses attacks against Americans by Iranian-supported terror groups because we have provoked Iran by trying to liberate Iraq.
Obama is frequently absent during Senate votes so as not to have to take a stance on difficult issues such as when Congress voted to identify The Iranian Revolutionary Guards as a terror group. This would make The IRG susceptible to sanction. Obama then criticized his opponents for supporting this bill.
Obama has called for withdrawal from Iraq which would destabilize the region and strengthen Iran’s military foothold. He has called for the abolition of nuclear weapons claiming that a nuclear armed America gives countries like Iran and North Korea justification for nukes.
I shudder to think that Obama as president would have access to nuclear arms. He doesn’t have the experience or judgment to utilize our military to safeguard our country or our allies. He has already said that he wants to negotiate with our enemies but is willing to attack Pakistan (our ally in the Afgan war).
I hope your writer and the editor that chose to run this story understand that by a candidate seeking financial backing from Jews, doesn’t mean that he is “reaching out to the Jewish Community”.
Obama’s association with George Soros is enough disqualify him from the Presidency.
His EYES! What have you done to HIS EYES?! ....he has his father’s eyes...
It’s three photos, which may account for some of its strangeness and slightly skewed perspective. But even so, it does look posed.
Obama is indeed frightening. I’m not a McCain fan at all, but he is still getting my vote in the general election because the alternatives of either Obama or Clinton are simply too scary or sickening to think about and the only hope we have of not having them in office is to vote McCain. Anything else is a throwaway.
McCain might still lose even then, but we have to try. I can understand, to a point, the people that say “No way I’m voting for McCain.” I was one of them, a month or so ago. But now, taking emotions and “standing up for our principles” out of the equation, I don’t see that stance as making any real logical sense anymore. Unfortunately.

there’s an image of Obama’s father on this page. (Freeper Beckwith’s Obama File.)
Obama is frightening enough that we reregistered as Dems, so we can vote for Hildabeast in our June primary.
McCain will be a moot point by then; and he has a much better chance at defeating Hillnbill than he does Obamadamnation.
My first thought was Soros has a little invisible glass stick to raise Obama’s hand for the proper gestures. Very much a puppet.
B.Hussein.
I'm not sure the country could recover from even 4 years of Obamatopia.
Good for you!
ok come on now...dont you think the FBI or CIA would have information on this guy...After all he is running for the President of the United States...
You guys watch too much Supremacy movies or something.
If we think this, dont you think the FBI does too! Sheeesh.
There is something really strange about Obama’s wife, too. She reminds me of Jim Jones wife.
The obama nation is an abomination.
The Abomination of Desolation, standing where he ought not?
Or, just a hitchhiker, trying to catch a Night Ride on the magic horse?
Sellers was pretty damned good.
Hope. The favorite drink of the sheeple.

“Why is Soros the only one seated?”
——you know the one about the 400 lb. Gorilla?
——even though he paid $250,000 for the privelege////
Lots of people have suggested that Obama may be getting large $$ through Soros, even while his “grassroots” supporters are funnelling millions through the Internet donation site. The two are by no means mutually exclusive.
I hope it comes to light before it’s too late.
Oprah’s Baby
Reminds me of one those early sixties TV specials, which dramatized The Devil and Daniel Webster. I saw this as a kid, of course, and about all I remember of it is this: the premise is that the Devil agrees to let Daniel Webster argue for a man's soul, with his fate to be decided by a jury of the Devil's choosing, subject to a stipulation of Daniel Webster, who immediately says, "Well, they must be Americans ..." "Agreed!" interrupts the Devil, and he goes on to pick Benedict Arnold, Blackbeard (I think ) and other famous American villains.
So that's how I feel about Hillary in this case, at least she's an American.
Another freeper turned me on to that the other day it is a long but much worth it file.
Bump to all who have not read it.
