Obama: ‘I Am The Closest Thing To A Jew That Has Ever Sat In This Office’
Daily Caller ^ | 6-2-15 | Jamie Weinstein

President Barack Obama apparently thinks he’s the closest thing to a Jewish president America has ever had.

Speaking to JPUpdates.com, top Obama confidant David Axelrod described a moment where the president expressed exasperation to him over being derided as anti-Israel by some.

“You know, I think I am the closest thing to a Jew that has ever sat in this office,” the president claimed, according to Axelrod. “For people to say that I am anti-Israel, or, even worse, anti-Semitic, it hurts.”

During Obama’s tenure, U.S.-Israel relations have fallen to their lowest point in decades.

In the interview, Axelrod attempted to blame the current impasse between America and Israel as the fault of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Axelrod slammed Netanyahu for only being in politics because he wants “to be somebody,” in contrast to Obama and more “respectable” politicians who Axelrod claims entered elective politics to do “something positive.”

“You are an emotional nation, not a rational nation. You work from your gut and not your mind.”

It’s like being in the movie “Time Bandits” with this guy. Or in “We Come to Serve Man” from “The Twilight Zone.”

You bring up a good point. At the beginning of his term, I saw a video of him in a hall with a reporter. He said something, and the reporter asked, “Is this true?”

He responded that what he said was true at that moment and that the reporter was to write it down. 0bama put his index finger on the reporter’s notepad, too.

True. At the 2000 DNC convention, he had maxed out his credit cards, so he couldn’t rent a car. Someone must have bailed him out and gotten him one.

Based on his own words of liking his drones and being able to kill people with them, apparently watching the videos over and over, let’s add psycho- to that label.

Sure. That’s why we make such good lawyers and doctors, and why we’re so greedy./s
