Still waiting for any prominent muslim leader in this country to condemn the 9-11 attacks, wholeheartedly, and without qualification.

Come to think of it, Barry hasn’t done that either.

How often does he issue statements like this on Christian holidays?

While this statement does not coincide with a Christian holiday, it does coincide with a Jewish holiday. Where is Obama's statement to the Jews?

The only good thing that would come of Obama fianlly declaring his belief system evolving into Islam is that he could stick Michelle in a burka.

. . . but white guilt appeasement trumped patriotism and reason.

He actually did, but brought in politics as usual.

Hello. As Jews across America, Israel, and the world gather together for the High Holidays, Michelle and I extend our warmest wishes to you and your families for a sweet and happy new year.

My good friend Elie Wiesel once said that God gave human beings a secret, and that secret was not how to begin but how to begin again. These days of awe are a chance to celebrate that gift, to give thanks for the secret, the miracle of renewal.

In synagogues and homes over the coming days, Jews will reflect on a year that carried its shares of challenges. We’ve been reminded many times that our world still needs repair. So here at home we continue the hard work of rebuilding our economy and restoring our American dream of opportunity for all. Around the world, we continue to stand for the dignity of every human being, and against the scourge of anti-Semitism, and we reaffirm the friendships and bonds that keep us strong, including our unshakeable alliance with the State of Israel.

So let’s approach this new year with new confidence and new hope. Let’s recommit ourselves to living out the values we share as individuals and as a country. Above all, let’s embrace this God-given miracle of renewal, this extraordinary opportunity to begin again in pursuit of justice, prosperity, and peace. From my family to yours, shanah tovah.

Don't know if the New Yorker cover was photoshopped for the web, but it has always tickled me that the effete liberal rag artist portrayed them as mostly white with just a touch of black.

"Well yes dear, they are, but they're our kind of uhh...Mau-Maus?

Do you really have to ask? (I can only assume that your question is rhetorical...)

I certainly did NOT hear about his statement to the Jewish communities for their holidays.

Did I miss something?

OR was there nothing to miss?

Obama is certainly making more & more of us believe that he is Muslim.

Strange this president is so knowledgeable of the Muslim faith and holiday's, sure would be nice if he was as knowledgeable of the HISTORY of AMERICA.

Did he read this from a written speech on the teleprompter or did he look straight at the Muslim world and give this speech? just wondering...

To me this is just more proof that he was raised a Muslim and is a Muslim, and he has LIED to the American voters so much, I don't trust or believe any thing that comes out of his mouth...

He has destroyed a Great Nation in just six years...He needs to be stopped in his tracks, so when you vote in four weeks, REMEMBER WHAT WE USE TO HAVE...VOTE LIBERALS, AND DEMOCRATS OUT OF POWER...

Hajj [pilgrimage to Mecca]

No. No. No. Saudi Arabia is not extending visas to the ebola infected countries. Saudi Arabia has doubled security to keep ebola out. Saudi Arabia is doing what we should have done here.

The Post Office celebrates Eid with a stamp.

They also celebrate the tenets of Islam every time they ask a white, American-born elderly lady if she has explosives in her parcel.

the millions of pilgrims joining one of the world’s largest and most diverse gatherings,

His definition of "diverse" must differ from the dictionary.
