Top Jewish Americans ponder support for Obama

(Reuters) - Some prominent Jewish Americans are rethinking their support for President Barack Obama's 2012 re-election bid after he effectively called on Israel to give back territory it has occupied since 1967 to Palestinians. The backlash after Obama's keynote speech on the Middle East has Democratic Party operatives scrambling to mollify the Jewish community as the president prepares to seek a second term in the White House.

No one likes to be implied as subversive, regardless of the state of innocence.

I see nothing anti-Semitic in your posts. Anti-liberal (Jews), yes.

[By the way, I just noticed FR spell checker indicates a mistake in spelling until one capitalizes the "S" in Semitic.]

[PROCON]

Are you using rt’s statement in the proper context?

Yes, why?

I wasn't attacking him.

[bigheadfred]

No. I know.

The statement, IMO, was specifically pointed, IMO, rhetorically, to another post that was, IMO, deserving of more than just a bit of ummmm...sarcastic condescension...shall we say.

[PROCON]

I know which FReeper the statement was pointed at, and the context which, I hope, supports my comment #117.

[bigheadfred]

You are correct.

Like I said.

It was merely my opinion. And from my POV, your post 117 was a generalization to the more specificity of theirs.

I am thankful for your clarification.

Learn to spell and write complete, grammatically-correct sentences and I might be able to interpret your gibberish.

I am thankful for your clarification

My pleasure, have a great weekend FRiend..:=)

[Tzfat]

I know your type.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

I know your type.

So you admit you're a bigot.

Interesting.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

So liberal Jews are the cause of your problems.

Since you had my previous post removed like a slimy weasel, I will just state the obvious again: Liberal Jews who vote for Obama deserve the Sharia Law he intends to bring about.

[Never A Dull Moment]

Thank you.....
And, Shalom.

to be honest...I could give a damn Scarlett

they sure don't have an issue destroying all I hold dear in traditional values and culture here...abortion? check, gun control? check, nationalize healthcare? check, what establishment clause? check, fembotism? check, hate crimes? check.....and so forth

but yet now they might get a bit upset because their anointed magic negro(half actually but who's measuring?)..they just had to have... has dumped their kinsmen in the Middle East to the savage moon rock worshippers..so now they just might decide he's not so keen after all

so what does that tell ya about where their loyalty lies?

it sure ain't with what I care about besides that one point we might have in common...that Israel deserves help considering...and it has nothing to do with blood or religion but simply common culture and doing the right thing....lord...I get so tired of Christians coveting being a Jew....it's enough to make any Jew feel like a virgin at a pagan funeral

not sure where they went off the tracks...the old media Jews actually liked America

I could care less...Israelis should disown them..they have more in common with conservative Christians and Jews like us than Red Diaper babies and grandbabies really anyhow...I mean who really here in America supports Israel 100% all the way and always has...unequivocal..think about it.

[wardaddy]

that is true but few Jews in Israel are naive about what surrounds them like their lib kin are here

this I know from having years experience there

lib Jews here had to know that Obama was going to be markedly different towards Israel

hell...let's face it...Obama has more Jews in his inner circle than anyone ever has

plenty of Jewish commentators have raved on and on about it

the ultimate shabbaz goy

now look at him...don't tell me they could not have known what he was like

Obama sympathizes with Islam and folks of color...and he views Israelis as white..and they are mostly..by far

but Arabs are Muslim and somewhat more swarthy or quite dark

it is religious and racial for Obama

he views Western civilization of which Christianity and Jews too played a big role as one big oppression against others and to some degree women

this treatment of Israel is a manifestation of that

I hope those 80% of American Jews with their crazy humanist messianic bent are now happy...what he did to their kinfolks who live in such a terrible neighborhood is appalling....

akin to FDR turning away the boats

and Obama must truly loathe Bibi...Bibi is everything Obama can never be...a real man.

but yet now they might get a bit upset because their anointed magic negro(half actually but who's measuring?)

He's Irish now, haven't you heard?! Yes, that's right, he has "ancestory" there now! Bwwwwaaaahhaahahhaha!

[wardaddy]

I thought he was kin to Jeff Davis too

the everyman

[richardtavor]

I didn’t have your post removed. Must have been someone else offended by your comments.

[richardtavor]

This dude is antisemitic..I had a few choice comments for him..By the way, I spent time in Safed last year, and if any of these bozos could see the enlightenment coming out of there, they would not make their ignorant statements.

[Recon Dad]

It won't take too many American Jews to actually change the upcoming election. Can you imagine Zero winning Florida without taking Dade, Broward and Palm Beach with big numbers.

[Clintonfatigued]

In 1980, Jimmy Carter won the Jewish vote over Ronald Reagan by only 45% to 39%, the worsts showing for a DemocRAT in memory.
