Obama knows he's got trouble in the Jewish community, and that includes non-Republican Jews. Lots of folks believe that Obama is a muslim. In fact, that little picture Hillary sent out today was probably a meant to exploit this very concern in the Jewish community.

And who exactly are these leftist clowns in Cleveland?

By the way, Obama would be correct if he meant that he supports more right wing groups than Likud-- but I don't think that's what he means.

I may get flamed for this but I don't care........
The only way I'll believe he's not really a muslime is when I see the muslimes issue a fatwa and declare him an apostate. When they call for his death I'll believe he may not be a muslime.
When and If that happens I'll believe he's not a muslime deep down in his heart and soul.
(Disclaimer: I may not believe it even if that happens)

Sounds just like Jimmy Carter; and we know how much of a friend Mr. Peanut has been to Israel.

"I think there is a strain within the pro-Israel community that says unless you adopt an unwavering pro-Likud ap-proach to Israel, then you're anti-Israel, and that can't be the measure of our friendship with Israel," leading Democratic presidential contender Illinois Senator Barack Obama said Sunday.

"If we cannot have an honest dialogue about how do we achieve these goals, then we're not going to make progress," he said.

He also criticized the notion that anyone who asks tough questions about advancing the peace process or tries to secure Israel by anyway other than "just crushing the opposition" is being "soft or anti-Israel."

Obama made the comments in a closed-door meeting with several members of Cleveland's Jewish community, who will be participating in the crucial Ohio primary to be held next Tuesday.
