Google Images doesn't show a verifiable source for the picture you posted. It APPEARS to be from Drudge. Might be from Reuters. PLEASE PROVIDE PROPER ATTRIBUTION. NOW, where are the frames showing him lighting anything, because I'm pretty sure that's just a decoration.

Youre clueless as to how many Jewish voters Obama has permanently lost for the Democrats arent you Context is everything LOL at the irony of you LOLing at the irony quote: ORIGINAL: Politesub53 Lol at the irony of "political". Do you want to guess which President started the tradition of a Hanukkah party, possibly for errrr........Political purposes.

mnottertail -> RE: Obama celebrates Hanukkah (12/9/2011 3:41:09 PM)
I would say you are considerably more clueless, unless you have real credible numbers of what he has lost. Uhhhhhhhhh....which you don't, and you can quote me.

[8D] Yeah plenty political which isn't much of a surprise to be honest but IMHO he could have at least got the date right rather than do it before a GOP conference which mightn't make it look very erm... "sincere"!

thompsonx -> RE: Obama celebrates Hanukkah (12/9/2011 3:48:38 PM)
So because of this perceived faux pas you have changed your mind and now will not vote for obama? That is pretty fickle don't you think?

Are you really suggesting that this is a ploy and as such Jewish voters are not bright enough to see for what you claim it is ? Or are you, and this is more likely, just Obama bashing as per usual.

FR: Here's the event covered by a Jewish publication. It doesn't focus on the "party" quote, but on other aspects of the event not mentioned in the OP's link: http://www.jta.org/news/article/2011/12/09/3090659/obama-lights-white-house-menorah-at-reception

TWO WEEKS EARLY? LIGHTS ALL THE CANDLES... 'We Never Need an Excuse For a Good Party'... Sheesh, you don't light "all" the candles at once! This bum is trying to pull a Clinton. When Clinton was speaking in front of Italians he was "part Italian." If he was adressing Swedes and Norwegians in Minnisotta he was "part Swede and Norwegian." Even when he was talking to Native American Indian groups,....yup, you guessed it, he was "part Cherokee, Apache, Crow, Comanchie, Mohawk, Lumbee," Chezks in Philadelphia,......you got it! ...fill in the blank!

Recall how people were referring to him as Barack O'Bama after he revealed that he was part Irish around St Patricks day [:D] quote: ORIGINAL: popeye1250 Sheesh, you don't light "all" the candles at once!

Lieberman agrees that Obama has done more for Israel than Bush

How come he isn't wearing a beanie cap ?

How is the Jewish community taking all this?

And since the party is purely symbolic here... Or, as I said, he could follow the tradition of the house of Shammai, (which is I realize Steve, not exactly what you would call mainstream, I expect you could call it arcane...) and light them all the first night and extinguish one per night thru the 8th night) And I expect servant, that he isn't wearing a kippah because he's reformed. And popeye: If he was adressing Swedes and Norwegians in Minnisotta he was "part Swede and Norwegian." Learn to spell, as it is one of the things that makes you appear intellectually impoverished, and no he didn't...first of all unless he was fuckin Haakon himself he wouldn't separate it, he would have said Scandinavian. You would have read of his death in the newspaper by a Norwegian. And further what do you have such a hard-on against a good Black Irish boy like O'bama for? He made good and you are still chasing potato water?

That was my feeling after reading the articles.
