Rahm Emanuel's role as pointe man means new respect for boys & ballet

Belly up the barres, boys. It's a perfect time to take the leap and don those tights - or maybe that's vice versa.
With the flurry of attention for the ballet history of congressman Rahm Emanuel (President-elect Obama's pick for White House chief of staff), it's suddenly become a lot cooler to be a guy who knows his way around toeshoes, turnouts and tights.

Here's Rahm as a young fledgling ballerina...
Rahm is just trying to regain traction after threats to his son’s scheduled Bar Mitzvah in Israel were leaked by ultra Orthodox Jews in Israel .
Pure stunt.
You’d think he’d know better.
Obama has a clue, but he is on the wrong side in the war between the West and its enemies.
Of course he couldn't wait after he was elevated to his throne to mosey to the Middle East and visit his Islamo-Fascist "Buds" and "Cherry Pick" from the Qur'an passages that made it appear that Islam is a Religion of "Peace," but can NOT bring himself to visit our ONLY ally in that hell hole part of the world, less he offend any Moozies, which it certainly would do.
Can't help but wonder if Bibi will be "feted" like Phil-Lee-Pay was with a $100/lb Wagyu Beef State Dinner?
Can anyone imagine the dust up and reaction if Bibi was to diss the US over it's Israel policy the same way Cal-Der-Roan did when he was here?
PM Netanyahu SHOULD tell Rahm what BHO can go do after how he was treated the last time he came for a visit to the White House. But, he probably won’t.
PLEASE, Israel, SEE these people for who they are! DON’T believe them! Don’t trust them! Most AMericans you can trust — the people in charge in Washington right now — NO!
Bibi, tell him to go pound sand. Your interests and his are not even remotely similar.
“Israel has cut Obama off from something he needs. That’s how I read it.”
Yeah, Jewish money. Normally traditionally open liberal Jewish voters are catching on.
Ergo, Obama sends the Court Jew to pretend to not be an Islamists bent on the destruction of Israel.
I’m not fooled.
At least you made me smile. Thanks, dear Yehuda!
Squid? Rahm purports to be Orthodox.
Money quote:
“Dining on blatantly unkosher food on a trip devoted to a Bar Mitzvah might be interpreted by some as a deliberate message by Emanuel to the same religious nationalists who say they will not allow his son to celebrate his Bar Mitzvah at the Kotel’s public area, in keeping with a line of theatrically insulting messages to Israel delivered by the White House since it came under Emanuel’s direction. The most notorious of these was the photograph released by the White House of President Barack Obama speaking to Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu with his feet propped up on his desk and the soles thrust at the camera.”
I am growing out my beard, BTW. (Not sure if it was you with whom I spoke about that.) Still red. May change my name to “Ahab.”
bttt
Love the fact that one has to report this denial:
“Prime Minister Netanyahus office several months ago denied a report that he termed Emanuel a self-hating Jew. “

If youd like to be on or off, please FR mail me.

Shared security interests, OK. Better than discussing basketball, I suppose. Better if Bibi instructed Barak in the executive skills necessary when you spring an oil leak, but he wouldn't listen.
Now, that's funny. But it's pretty sad for his kids.
LOL @ Yehuda!!!
