Obamas top presidential campaign advisers are putting together a plan to go on the offensive against critics of his stance on Israel, Im told, and are assembling a team of high profile surrogates who are well respected in the Jewish community to battle criticism in the media and ensure that it doesnt go unanswered.
Obamas supporters say the plan is in effect an acknowledgment that conservative attacks on Obamas Israel stance have made defections among Jewish voters and donors a possibility they must take seriously. Obamas advisers see a need to push back even harder on the attacks than they did in 2008, in part because Obama now has a record on the issue to defend a record that even Obamas supporters concede has not been adequately explained.
A group of well-known figures in the Jewish community has been in discussions with senior Obama adviser David Axelrod about how to respond to the criticism, which is expected to intensify as the campaign heats up. Among them: Alan Solow, the former head of the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations; former Congressmen Mel Levine and Robert Wexler; and executive Penny Pritzker.

Non of whom are Orthodox Jews, I believe.
This could be good. Not only has Obama stuck his foot in his mouth, now he’s going to try to swallow.
Just the fact they have to devise a strategy tells american everything they need to know about Obama.
Fine by me.
Keep picking loser positions and give it your best.
Hell, frame it and go all out.
...and they say it's hard to find a Jewish whore...
The lying sack of sheet who claimed he was a Uniiter, now intends to commence his scorched earth campaign so he can have 4 more years?
Obama campaign to go on the offensive against conservative critics of Israel stance.
LMAO!
Are there any US Jewish critics of Obama’s Israel stance?
Correct
And he stands a better than even chance of getting 4 more years, in my oppinion.
Plus, without 67 true conservatives in the senate it won’t matter anyway.
Well by his plan the gloves are off, so we need to have to attack every stupid thing he’s done.

Why do American Jews go for this crap?
By 'media', they must mean Fox News and talk radio. The rest of the media are a bunch of boot-lickers who aren't even allowed to criticize Obama.
BUMP
I cant deny that people express to me concerns about the presidents policies, Solow said. But when I run through the record with them, they are by and large convinced that the presidents policies are correct.
The effort to make this point, Im told, will also be proactive, with surrogates publishing op ed pieces that represent the White Houses point of view. And it will include a renewed effort to highlight other aspects of Obamas record that have gone under-discussed, like increased military cooperation between Israel and the United States.”
More propaganda facilitated by a cooperative media.
