Obama Compares Chicagoans To Nazis In Prayer Breakfast Remarks
Daily Caller ^ | 1/4/16 | Kerry Picket

Posted on 02/04/2016 4:31:04 PM PST by Nachum

President Barack Obama relayed two stories during the National Prayer Breakfast which compared Chicago residents to Nazis.

The president spoke about a story he learned of at a ceremony at the Israeli Embassy where he gave remarks honoring individuals who rescued Jews during the Holocaust.

The president later compared that story to Chicago Muslim father and his children praying one day after the San Bernardino shooting:

A week ago, I spoke at a ceremony held at the Israeli Embassy for the first time, honoring the courage of people who saved Jews during the Holocaust. And one of the recipients was the grandson — or the son of an American soldier who had been captured by the Nazis. So a group of American soldiers are captured, and their captors ordered Jewish POWs to identify themselves. And one sergeant, a Christian named Roddie Edmonds, from Tennessee, ordered all American troops to report alongside them. They lined up in formation, approximately 200 of them, and the Nazi colonel said, “I asked only for the Jewish POWs,” and said, “These can’t all be Jewish.” And Master Sergeant Edmonds stood there and said, “We are all Jews.” And the colonel took out his pistol and held it to the Master Sergeant’s head and said, “Tell me who the Jews are.” And he repeated, “We are all Jews.” And faced with the choice of shooting all those soldiers, the Nazis relented. And so, through his moral clarity, through an act of faith, Sergeant Edmonds saved the lives of his Jewish brothers-in-arms. (Applause.)

Doesn’t he claim to be from Chicago, among other places? He does remind me of a Nazi.

Obazma is accusing others of what Obama himself is:

“Barrack Obama, The Quintessential Fascist”
