Statement from the President on Passover
Michelle and I send our warmest greetings to all those celebrating Passover in the United States, in the State of Israel, and throughout the world.
Tonight, for the seventh year, I’ll hold a Seder in the White House, and we’ll join millions of Jewish families as we retell one of humanity’s great stories of liberation. The Exodus was neither easy nor quick. The Israelites’ journey to freedom required them to choose faith over fear and courage over complacency. Above all, it required the works of an awesome God, who led them out of bondage with a mighty hand and an outstretched arm.
The story of the Exodus – the signs and wonders that appeared when hope seemed lost, the Jewish people’s abiding belief that they would one day reach the Promised Land – has inspired countless generations over the years. It inspired Jewish families to hold fast to their faith, even during times of terrible persecution. It inspired young Civil Rights leaders as they marched across an Alabama bridge in search of their own Promised Land, half a century ago.
And it continues to inspire us today. Tonight, my family will read the passage of the Haggadah that declares we must see ourselves as though we personally were liberated from Egypt. The Exodus reminds us that progress has always come slow and the future has always been uncertain, but it also reminds there is always reason for hope.
Like the Israelites who Moses led out of slavery long ago, it is up to us to never lose faith in the better day that lies ahead. In our own country, we can continue our march toward a more perfect union. Around the world, we can seek to extend the miracles of freedom and peace, prosperity and security, to more of God’s creation. And together, we can continue the hard but awesome work of tikkun olam, and do our part to repair the world.
Nothing is too sacred to exploit.
Ping to Obama nationalism through race

Not surprised at all.
Yeah ALL you stupid American Jews,
Keep sending your money and votes to the dems as this mookabooker throws Israel to the wolves, fools.
At heart every liberal is a tyrant. Worse, it's no miracle. Just get government out of the way. Wherever you find government you lose liberty and the innovation that comes with it.
With the tikkun olam, every liberal thinks they're our Savior. I wish they'd stop repairing the world so much.
where is his Easter statement?
Obama is playing out the role of the modern day Pharaoh in siding with Iran against Isreal.
Sounds to me like he’s keeping the atheistic Jews out of trouble with the religious Jews, by patronizing religious Jews (Don’t you know they’ve been getting some flak for supporting his deadly policies and anti-Semitic culture).
This way, the atheistic Jews could say to the religious Jews, “See, he really doesn’t intend to destroy Israel and our relatives and start WWIII and destroy the USA’s exceptionalism...it is not so bad we support him and his atheistic Marxist political party, they’re still our allies.”
Yes, the atheistic are in truth just dead nothings, it is plain to see. Just take a look at atheist Jews George Soros or Saul Alinsky or how about atheist Americans Clarence Darrow or Jesse Ventura for God’s sake. Of course they don’t, by themselves’, make the case, but they are fine examples of just what atheists are capable of believing...just about anything that gets them noticed and nothing that really means anything in the grand scheme of things.
What do atheists believe? Just about anything their little wandering hearts desire and I do mean little.
Race and homosexuality is what Soetoro is all about.
Uh-huh. Suuuuuuuure they will.
Like the Israelites who Moses led out of slavery long ago
Whoops, Baraq. Feminists claim that it wasn't Moses, but his sister Miriam, who is the real force behind the Exodus. Politically incorrect.
hes ignorant of the meaning of passover
No Christian nor Jew would ever make an analogy about Passing OVER a BRIDGE relative to Passover.
where do we sprinkle the blood to get this DEATH ANGEL obama... to shut his trap and retire???
His greeting to “all those celebrating Passover in the United States, in the state of Israel, and throughout the world” left out a few words such as “Michelle and I send our warmest greetings... because pretty soon there won’t be any Israel and much of the world will Judenfrei”.
Next year in Jerusalem we’ll say Kaddish for you, Allah Akbar!
