A growing number of bloggers such as Richard Cohen, Brigitte Gabriel, Sharon Hughes, Charles Krauthammer, Kenneth Blackwell, Naomi Ragen, Debbie Schlussel, Ed Lasky, and William Levinson are pointing out Barack Obama’s numerous connections to unsavory individuals and organizations that espouse and promote hatred of Jews, Catholics, white people, Israel, and/or the United States. By “connections” we do not mean casual social contacts, but Obama’s deliberate efforts to seek out these entities and gain their support.
...Naomi Ragen
Naomi Ragen dismisses the “smear” and makes frontal attack on Obama
The Jews who are considering voting for Obama (or Clinton) should be doing a lot more research. Even if they don’t care if Israel is wiped off the map, do you really want a man whose Church gives out awards to people like Louis Farrakhan? Do you want a man whose volunteers sit under Che Guevara posters (according to the picture shown on KRIV-TV iin Texas)?How many times can a voter turn his head and pretend that he just doesn’t see?

Obama’s “church” website is already on whitewash. Their tenet of “allegiance” first to Africa now has been changed to a “commitment” to Africa. I don’t think their allegiance has changed one iota, it just needs to be made more palatable to the American people. One does not generally join a church whose views they find objectionable; one joins a church that espouses what one believes.
“You can take the man out of Islam...”
Yup; why I’d be willing to bet that he’d give the Fatah terrorists an even bigger subsidy than Bush’s $500,000,000.00 one. I hear he really does plan to out grovel and out subsidize Bush when it comes to Mohammedan terrorism. It has to do with the legacy thing and since it looks like Bush has cornered the market on destroyed Christian communities, Obama will just have to double that blood money to Fatah. Then he can go hold hands with and dance with and kiss Saudi royals, telling them how much we American love and respect their Religion of Peace and make us all so very proud like Bush has! :)
He may not be in control of his destiny. I recall that G-d put’s into leadership whom He wants...It may be that he might be like Pharoah—Put into office to make it hard enough on the Jews to CRY OUT TO THE G-D OF JACOB for salvation..I don’t want my brothers to suffer and my prayer is that they chose G-d and not the world.
I firmly believe that if Jews were to leave Israel and give everything there over to Palestinians that inside of a year there would be no production of anything there, there would be garbage filling the streets and it would be the same kind of hell-hole Palestinians “create” everywhere.
I wish that you were wrong, but you are not..
In a way that KKK member would disavow some particular action of KKK that brought too much negative publicity.
Hillary or No Hillary, these are facts.
Also, I don’t think idea of defeating a socialist by supporting a bigger socialist works.
Our foreign policy is nonsensical at best. We’re fighting a methodology, terrorism, while aiding its proponents, Muslims, while opposing our natural allies, Christians...particularly those in the greater Balkans who have fought against Muslim domination and imperialism since the rise of the ruthless Ottomans in the 13th century.
“This smells of Clinton’s privy. Obama disavowed the Farrakan award from his church. He is not going to turn his back on the people that brought him to the party. I am a hardened conservative but this stinks to high democrat heaven.”
I know that Obama distanced himself from Farrakhan, but not from the church that made the award. Suppose that a member of our party belonged to a church that gave an award to the Grand Wizard of the KKK. The Democrats would crucify him if he didn’t quit that church.
Many of the bloggers and columnists in question, including myself, are Republicans or at least conservative Democrats (DINOs to the MoveOn.org crowd). If Clinton is the nominee, I will work for her defeat (noting that she, like Obama, also promoted and endorsed Al Sharpton).
“The problem with American Jews is they are liberals first and Jews second.
More like JINO’s.”
I call the National Jewish Democratic Council the National Judenrat Democratic Capos (Kapos = concentration camp trustees and collaborators with the Nazis). The actual kapos had the excuse that they had guns to their heads, often literally, but NJDC collaborates with and whitewashes anti-Semites all on its own.
Union for Reform Judaism (formerly Union of American Hebrew Congregations, a double oxymoron) = MoveOn.org with Jewish holidays.
I am speaking as a Jewish voter, by the way. These organizations do not represent me in any way, and I wish they would drop the word “Jewish” from their names.
“Obama’s “church” website is already on whitewash. Their tenet of “allegiance” first to Africa now has been changed to a “commitment” to Africa.”
Thanks, I will check Google’s cache immediately and post the original all over the Internet. I did that to MoveOn.org’s Action Forum back in 2006, and the Action Forum no longer exists. With any luck, Obama’s candidacy will go the same way.
Obama himself is in whitewash mode. He was scheduled to attend the “State of the Black Union” meeting on CSPAN and fully intended to go, but then decided not to at the last minute. These meetings of the Black elite are filled with some of the most conspiratorial, anti-Israel, and America-hating rhetoric you will ever hear ourside of a Communist Party rally. Obama obviously didn’t want to willingly pull his own covers by attending this hatefest.

Oh please...take that crap back to the balkan threads.
I am sure that is true however I think Olmert and the Jewish left will beat him to it.
Yeah but you can’t take the messiah from his “true believers”. Just pray the cult is smaller than it appears.
I’ll say it again - I’d rather face Hillary than Obama. Hillary is more beatable. And as much as conservatives don’t want to admit it - Obama is far to the left of Hillary on foreign policy.
Prayer in effect!
