President Barack Obama apparently thinks hes 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 Obamas 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.
BTW, if he’s a Jew, Islamic radicals need to know that.
What is black and white on the outside and all red on the inside?
If you recall his first campaign, Obama seemed at the time to think he was the reincarnation of Lincoln.
Delusional

I'd settle for this one.

Lincoln was probably paternally Jewish; ergo not Jewish at all, although he did consider himself Jewish.
There, fixed it.
I love the sound Baraq makes when he shuts up.

LSD is a harsh drug when used for extended periods.
I used to think he was either stupid or delusional. I’ve become convinced he’s a master of situational ethics. If his political objectives require he lies then it is OK for him to do so - it’s a re-play of the old communist credo “the end justifies the means”. He’s trying to neutralize the Jewish lobby prior to his deal with Iran. He’s already said he wants Israel to return to it’s 1967 borders which would be suicide for Israel so he’s aready established his “Bona Fides” as an anti-zionist.
He’s right. Muslims are about as close to a Jew as one can get. The Jews and the Muslims all came from Abraham.
He’s a schmuck.
The government - media complex strikes again (with thanks to Michael Savage for that definition.)
And that is also why he sat in Rev. Wright’s congregation for 20 years earnestly listening to the reverend’s pro-Jewish and pro-Israel sermons. /sarc. off.

Well, Ishmael WAS Isaac’s half brother....So, I guess, he’s right, in a way?
Pretty sure Monika Lewinski was the first Jew to sit in the Oval office...
