Are these the same Jews that voted for him?

I really don’t give a shite. They get exactly what they voted for.

Between Power, Mitchell, Clinton and OBama, Israel is pretty well screwed.

I doubt many members of a Zionist group voted for him, but they can thank their "progressive" fellows who sure did.

I'm surprise that Obama, being a committed Christian, has forgotten that God told Abraham that "I will bless those who bless you and curse those who curse you.

Biblically, it's right after the scripture reference to whitey and the U.S. KKK of A.

She has been criticized in the past for making statements critical of Israel and its treatment of the Palestinians.

ROFL--sort of like Carter, Arafat, alGore getting the Nobel.

Power was born and raised in Ireland before emigrating to the United States in 1979.

From 1993 to 1996, she worked as a journalist, covering the Yugoslav wars for U.S. News & World Report, The Boston Globe, The Economist, and The New Republic.

A scholar of foreign policy especially as it relates to human rights, genocide, and AIDS, she is currently the Anna Lindh Professor of Practice of Global Leadership and Public Policy at Harvard's John F. Kennedy School of Government.

Power spent 2005-06 working in the office of U.S. Senator Barack Obama as a foreign policy fellow, where she was credited with sparking and directing Obama's interest in the Darfur conflict

She served as a senior foreign policy adviser to Obama's 2008 presidential campaign until she was forced to resign

After the 2008 presidential election, Power returned to Obama's team, becoming a member of the transition team, working for the Department of State.

In January 2009 President Obama appointed Power to the National Security Council, where she will serve as director for multilateral affairs.

Samantha Power is back
Posted by smoothstone

The messiah-elect fraud, Barack Hussein Obama, has just re-hired Samantha Power. This act of rehiring Power should give us more insight into the foreign-policy objectives of Barack Hussein Obama, who had Samantha Power as an adviser from 2005 until she referred to Hillary Clinton as a “monster” in March of this year.

Samatha Power doesn’t just loathe Hilary Clinton, she loathes Israeli Jews as well.

The messiah-elect got rid of Power so that he wouldn’t lose the Jewish vote.

Now that he got the Jewish vote, she’s back in.

I wonder if Israel will grow the balls to up the ante.

They won't get any help from anyone now, but they can make the west wish that they had grown a pair first.

Tehran, Damascus, the port, oilfields and refinery should disappear in a flash of lithium fusion, what bunker busters they have should fall on Iran's nuke facility.

Israel should explain in three words: "Pick A Side."

There is an eye-opening video at the above link, too.

No. The Jews who voted FOR Obama live in the US. The Israelis live in Israel and they didn't vote for Obama.

They actually have their butts on the line, and they can smell an anti-semite when they find him in their midst.

Not at all surprising to find Obama appointing some of these pukes here and there, albeit "without the Israel portfolio" ~ they'll still be present in the bowels of the State Department and able to do their evil worst.

The Next President is going to have to toss these people and all their acolytes who acrete to State Department into the political garbage cans, so don't forget to remind everyone of what needs done then, OK?!

Discussed here last week but worth repeating.

I believe that the addition of Powers (and Maloney) to Hussein's ME team is the most telling move to date.

This is a joke, right?

77% of American Jews voted for an annihilationist pro-Hamas President, and their votes elected him.

They made their bed - now lie in it, and STFU.

Bama has had a busy busy week. Can't wait to see what he will pull out of his bag of tricks this week. Get that stimulus bill signed and he can cruise to reelection.... cause he has Spector, Collins and Snowe on his team.

Well, that's what they told me before the election and Lord knows I can't criticize his profession of faith. Who am I to say he's not a Christian just because he supports mudering babies? I cannot match his intellect when it comes to nuancing the 6th commandment. BTW, it's a good think he keeps his office hot, it'll be good practice.
