He was just 24, but speechwriter David Litt had already become President Barack Obama’s go-to guy for anything considered “kishke-related.” In Litt’s parlance, that meant he wrote the president’s speeches aiming to connect with Jewish Americans on a gut level — things like holiday and anniversary commemorations, but not, say, Israel or foreign policy.
That explains Litt’s presence one Friday night in the White House library in April 2012. A jet-lagged Obama had just returned from a trip to Asia and the last thing on his schedule was to record a video greeting for Passover.
“All right,” Obama said grumpily when he entered the room more than two hours late. “One take.”
The president got partly through Litt’s script before stopping at a line that mentioned how some in the past have tried to “destroy the Jewish people” in every generation.
“Isn’t that line kind of a downer?” the president asked. “What’s the deal? Like ‘Everyone’s out to get us; have some matzah.’”
As it happens, that’s exactly the deal, Litt remembers thinking. That memory — and many more — are recounted in his entertaining new memoir, “Thanks, Obama: My Hopey, Changey White House Years.”
“POTUS had just summed up five thousand years of Jewish history in just eight words,” Litt writes. …

“Jet-lagged” Obama?
More likely stoned.
A more observant person would call that anti-Semitic.
A more observant person would point out that the worldly-wise college perfessser doesnt understand basic concepts of Judaism.
A more observant person would wonder what wunderkind here would say of this exact scenario if it had been Trump.
Because Obama is an antichrist?
[Because Obama is an antichrist?]
No kidding. Obama’s former speechwriter must be running for False Prophet.
Well, he certainly lies like his boss and the coming False Prophet will.
What does that mean? “Most Jewish” = antichrist?
With friends like 0bama Jews don’t need enemies!
Some have theorized the Antichrist will have a spirit like Herod thinking it might be accepted as “messiah”.
My $0.02 is that he comes from Europe. Some think there’s an Assyrian link. Some think he will be Gentile. Well....it will happen one way or another.
> Obama’s former speechwriter calls him the most Jewish president ever <
Well, sure. Obama was also the most Buddhist president ever. And the most artistic. And the most mathematically gifted. And the best at Chinese checkers.
I could go on and on for days.
Yeah so Jewish like he never went to Israel his first term...
Why not out him as the most leftist, most gayest, most beholden to banksters and most devout Muslim president ever?
Newsweak’s cover with Obama having the “rainbow” halo was tasteless.
Just 24, and to think he thinks he knows so musch?!!!
An antiChrist deceiver.
Claimed to be a Christian brought to Christ by muslim hate monger Jeremiah Wright.
Doesn’t believe Jesus saves.

In other words, a tool. His job was to ensure an emotional connection was achieved and maintained between Obama and a core constituency.
Was it because Obama refused to veto an anti Israel vote at the UN, fall of 2016. Here’s the title to the article I will link:
“Obama’s refusal to veto anti-Israel U.N. vote ranked most anti-Semitic incident of 2016
Simon Wiesenthal Center puts U.S. abstention at top of annual list”

[An antiChrist deceiver]
Corect. That’s what Obama is.
This is the eternal attempt at resurrecting the image of a commie president to satisfy their egoistic history. What a laughable joke, a sinister damnable joke. FU Obozo and your entire damnable entourage. FU.
