Obama Holds Conference Call With 900 Rabbis for the High Holy Days, Says His Volunteers Are Blowing Shofars of Action

Obama is Jewish, Muslim, Christan, whatever you want. As Rev. Wright would say, "he's a politician".

Willem,

Well, to be fair, McCain has good friends in both the Republican and Democratic Party. For god's sake, wasn't Kerry considering him as a VP. And as we know, Biden and him are great friends.

I don't necessarily believe you are who you "hang" with, but let's be honest here.

Jew in IL,

I think the problem that many Jewish voters have with Obama is his "sympathy" for terrorists - and by "sympathy" I don't mean he sides with them, or thinks what they are doing is right, just that he "understands" where they're coming from.

Also, Obama has openly stated (then probably retracted) he is willing to split Jerusalem in order to secure peace.

If you're really a Jew, which I doubt, you'd know that ain't gonna fly with the Jews.

It's laughable that Obama even has a preceived "Jewish" problem. In Ill., he was castigated as being in the pocket of Jewish leaders. He seemed to hang out with them non-stop. Then he gets to the national stage and a few smear emails start this "Obama doesn't support Israel" stuff. And the media and conservatives lap it up. It's unreal. The guy is a friend of the Jews. Period. End of discussion. Stop smearing him. And don't base your vote on lies.

Has anyone else noticed the 2 week difference between Obama's rhetoric and the McSame-ite's adoption of that rhetoric as there own?

Seriously, it's like a bad echo.

By the way, you McSame-ites need to look up the term "fiscal conservatives" because you guys aren't.

I was brought up to believe that you are who you hang with. 20 years with spiritual mentor who preaches so much hate...cannot fail to impact your life in a major way. That was enough for me. His hateful friends (we all know them) and the fact that he is using this depressed economy to get people aboard with his "join us, we'll change the world" crap honestly reminds me of a monsterous German man. I'm not saying Obama is Hitler, but he uses his tactics and his friends and associates are hateful people who seek to divide us.

I bet Obama's buddy Farrakhan wasn't there for this conference call. Obama is full it, full of himself, and I cannot stomach his pathetic begging for the Jewish vote.

Story out that Obama did not write his book, Ayers did.

Compare books, style is the same

McCain holds conference call with 900 Black Ministers to with them a Happy Juneteenth! Nothing opportunistic about that .....

James Johnson, Obama´s advisor involved in the selection process of Joe Biden. From 1991 to 1998 he was chairman and chief executive of Fannie Mae and from 1985 to 1990 managing director with Lehman Brothers.

Do you trust this man to run our economy?

Meshugenah!

Anything to get elected...If Clinton had done this or McCain, his internet minions would be foaming at the keyboard....What a bunch of hypocrites.

I'm a Jewish voter and supporting Obama. Also I think we should second guess Israel especially while PM Olmert's party is in power. They are destined to lose their entire power base next election.

What the ostrich and the Republicans have in common.Let me guess
Both hide their head on the sand and pretend everything is fine
An ostrich bury its head in the sand and pretend everything is fine
Republicans do the same and follow McCain

America is a multi cultural, multi ethnic melting pot. America was built by the world. It’s a country of immigrants? "You are spot on". But also remember Americas wealth was build also by African slaves Asian rail workers Latin Americans farm workers on the land of native Indians from white Europeans. Today this it is called THE AMERICAN DREAM

John McCain and Sarah Palin want to be elected like Republicans but they are trying to avoid discussing issues critical for the American families. And portraying themselves like reformers because they are embarrassed of the last 8 years of the Republicans –Bush Administration. Is the Republican Party in the need of urgent reform because is out of touch with the everyday life of the American people.
Americans want answers to they problems they want better healthcare they want better pay they don’t want just change because that sounds good on election time, they want change from the Bush policies. This election is not only about some bridge in Alaska it is about all the bridges and roads in all of United States because they are all crying out for repairs and maintenance. This is because for the last 8 years the Bush and the Republicans have spent enormous amounts to build up Iraq and they have forgotten about the needs of their own country.
Our libraries and schools should offer all the choices of books and facilities to give to our kids the tools not only to build a better future for them but also for the country.
John McCain and Sarah Plain promise of change: Is a change to Nowhere.
Nowhere near to help the American people with a real economic change Nowhere near to bring troops home safely.
Nowhere near to build America’s independence from oil.
Nowhere near to help the 95% of the American families.
Nowhere near to help the entrepreneurs and working families to keep jobs in America.
Nowhere near to provide the medical care reform for the American people and the Veterans who they are not fought for the red and blue states of the electoral map They fought against the terror and to keep America on the map.
Barack Obama and Joe Biden probably don’t have all the answers to the problems of the America’s working families or farmers or the people under the fear of loosing their homes. Because of the failing economic policies of the Bush administration.
But they are ready to answer to the Americans for their policies and take responsibility for their decisions if they are elected to the White House
Barack Obama is ready not only to lead Americans back to the American dream but also to be sure his family and your families and daughters and sons are part of this dream

Ryan, That was a good one!..she knew all the members of the Nigerian cabinet..Ha ha ha that was funny!. Now lets go vote the elitists out! and take care of our country again. With Obama its country first..with MCCain its rich people first..don't be duped by the Republicans..did you look at their convention! These people are comedy relief! The real rich ones and those pretending to be rich..I had a ball watching the Republican convention. Heaven help us all and save us from the Republicans!

America is a multi cultural, multi ethnic melting pot..America was built by the world..Its a country of immigrants. Yet when you look at the people(crowd) at two
conventions..one convention looks like America and the other is only a lot of old white people and elitist young people..some are very rich and the others pretending to be rich..they laughed at the community organizers around the country..they belong to a party that has run America's economy into the ground yet these people have the nerve to hold up signs that read "COUNTRY FIRST". These are the people who think that putting your hand on your chest during the singing or playing of the national anthem is patriotism and wearing a pin of the American flag is patriotism..when the highest form of patriotism is giving back to your country by volunteering in your community, giving some time to help struggling students in school..doing community work, they(elitist Republicans) laughed at that one). Giving back to your country is the highest form of patriotism. If you poor and struggling middle class people out there think that a man who is filthy rich(his wife has a lot of dough) and owns nine houses really care about you..I have news for you!...McCain and the elitists don't care about you when you are feeling the pain..they have enough to get by. I read on the paper the other day that McCain's wife wore an outfit to the convention that cost $300,000 while Obama's wife's outfit for her speech cost $150 now tell me who is the elitist..Go figure! America!..especially the poor and middle class you better wake up and go vote these elitist people out as quickly as possible. Heaven help us all and save us from the Republicans!

In her first question and answer session with voters since her shock selection as vice-presidential nominee, Mrs Palin had been asked by a member of the audience if she had the necessary foreign policy experience to be vice president.

She answered confidently: “I am prepared and I am confident. If you want specifics on countries you can play ‘stump the candidate’ if you want.” The questioner however declined the offer.

Palin then named every member of the Nigerian cabinet.

The world wishes for a strong USA on values, ideas and Democracy .Not a bully abusing his power to impose his authority

The Republicans are real good at negative ads,spin and lies..as always, the American public is falling for it. I am an Independent voter but based on my observation over the years I've realized that the Republican party have studied the American psyche relative to politics and realized that the typical American do not read widely..The typical American does not read or listen to nonpartisan programs..the typical American literally believes every thing heard on radio or Tv and the Republican part have worked hard on fooling the public with negative ads. The Democrats are not as good with putting out negative ads etc.I told all my friends since last year that obama will not be president because the Republicans will out negative the Democrats! Heaven help us all and save fom the Reblicans
