First of all, I think it's absurd that he hosted a Passover Seder. There's no indication that Passover ever meant anything to him. I do understand that some Christians might wish to participate in a Passover Seder because Jesus participated in such meals according to the Gospels, but Obama doesn't strike me as much of a Christian and certainly not one who wants to better understand his Christianity through understanding some aspects of Judaism. So the Seder was all for show. And for me that is an INSULT.
As for honoring something Jewish and/or something Islamic, it is also an INSULT to me as an American that you think there is anything equivalent about Judaism and Islam. Our interaction with Islam started with the Barbary Pirates and runs through 9/11. Judaism is, or was, the basis for our laws and morals. Judaism teaches do-not-oppress-the-stranger. Islam suggests you subdue him.

wow....talk about suppressed issues.
who the hell are you to equivocate religions or religious traditions??? I thought Christ was the only One to pass judgment??? if you are INSULTED because of your projections and/or judgments of me and/or others, so be it....
