If American Jews are happy over this appointment, they lack any political sense. Emanuel is one of the few men who could publically oppose Obama and have the opposition hurt. Inside the Obama White House, the man is emasculated. When Obama makes his first move against Israel - and that will come very quickly after Barry takes office - you can be certain Rahm will be at his side. Then when Barry makes his second - and far more serious - move, you can be certain Rahm will be there as well. When this happens, Rahm may be unhappy with the tilt away from Israel, but as the man is far more of a Democrat than a Jew, he won't leave the administration in a public huff.
Once, Lyndon Johnson was asked why he appointed an opponent to a position in the Johnson administration. LBJ said, “Its better to have him inside the tent “urinating” out, than outside the tent “urinating” in.”

You got Ram Emmanuel pegged exactly. That’s how it will play out.... Emanuele will provide cover if/when Hussein Obama screws Israel

Emanuele send his children to Jewish day schools? Of course he does. Did you expect him to send them to Chicago public schools? Neither does hypocrite Obama but of course the teacher unions love them both
