The president is out of town tonight, spending the night alone at his home in Chicago after a day filled with six fundraisers. But his campaign in Washington, D.C. continues.
An events list found at BarackObama.com reveals that eight "Obama Shabbat" dinners will be held this evening, here in Washington, to observe the Jewish sabbath and to "organize our community to help reelect President Barack Obama." The Jewish sabbath is observed from sundown Friday evening to sundown Saturday night.
The descriptions for the dinners are formulaic, sounding mostly the same. "On Friday, June 1st Jewish Americans across the District of Columbia will gather in their homes to celebrate Shabbat and organize our community to help reelect President Barack Obama," one reads. "Please join us at the home of Hannah Malvin to learn more about how you can help reelect President Obama."

The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
Don’t religious observing Jews consider it an affront to God to hold a political fundraiser because of a “Holy Day”?
I would say the same if Romney tried this as well!?
>> Jewish Americans... will ... organize our community to help reelect President Barack Obama
Jewish Americans are a masochistic lot, aren’t they.
Do orthodox Jews believe in the ObamaHealthCare formula of contraception and abortion?
Spending the night alone, eh?
Very well said. Egregious “Apikoros” (heathen.)
With the rise in Obamunemployment, it looks like there will even more days of rest.
For some reason the very idea of this self-serving desecration of the sabbath makes me feel ill.
It can no longer be denied that Obama is no friend of God, unless that god be his own perverted ambition and lust for power.
These are perilous days, indeed.
I would say so. I married a Seventh Day Adventist and go to an SDA church. I’m not so good at observing the Sabbath as those brought up in the faith. When singers have concerts, they will not sell their CDs until after sundown on Saturday. I live close to an Orthodox temple. On Saturday, they can be seen walking to temple. Obama should read about Jesus and the money-changers. It must not be in Obama’s version where Jesus says “I am my brother’s keeper”.
LOL! One and done Barry Obamawitz
Dude, I'm not an anti-Semite. Far, far from it, but as many times as it's been explained, it's incomprehensible to me how Jews don't vote 80, 90% Conservative, or at least Republican instead of the other way around.
They support the people who would indifferently stand around and see them massacred! Am I missing something?
“They support the people who would indifferently stand around and see them massacred! Am I missing something?”
You may not be aware that American Jews are largely commies. Real collectivists, from the German Brown Shirt collectivists (Fascists) or the Russian Red Shirt collectivists (Commies ala USSR).

Ditto.

Color me the same as you folks. I think the best phrase to describe American Jews is, "Useful Idiots".
