Bush had several of them. Of course only Obama misses out on the National Day of Prayer though.

Meaning,of course,that they're a couple of atheists.
I don’t understand why any rabbi or the Israeli ambassador would attend a dinner honoring a religion that seeks your total annihilation.

I understand this: If WE do not CRUSH THIS CULT...They WILL CRUSH US!

How quickly we forget those almost 3,000 innocent Americans who were murdered by the Islamists.
Every American should view this video made by a New Yorker who lived through the attack:

This video has been viewed by millions and is now in the Smithsonian.
The video includes the planes crashing into the buildings and victims jumping. There are pictures of many of those who lost their lives, and president Bush’s aftermath speech set to the haunting background music, ‘Only Time’ by Enya. Awesome.
.
I worried about the President among all these Hussain’s and Saleems....Can the metal detectors at the WH DETECT DYNAMITE and MATCHES ? ?
Text beneath the picture: What shall we all have for dinner? Ah. I see there’s only one sheep at the table, and we wolves are the majority. Shall we have a vote?
Yes. We Ramallans love sheep for Dinner, especially served up in IDF clothes at our local police station.
“Rabbi Nathan Diament, Director, Institute for Public Affairs, Orthodox Union*”
Orthodox. Heard him speak . He’s an Obama booster. What a jerk!
He is the exception in the OU which is very pro Israel.
