Obama: 'F**k the Jews, they're going to vote for us anyway'
On Friday, I blogged the story of the despicable Mary Robinson receiving the Medal of Freedom, America's highest civilian honor. This is from Tevi Troy in The Corner. Robinson’s record is well known to most Jews with even a passing familiarity with the Jewish media. It cannot be a surprise that honoring Robinson in this way would be anathema to the Jewish community. In addition, I know from having worked in the White House that these selections go through extremely careful vetting of public and non-public databases to make sure that they would not embarrass the president in any way. The staff secretary’s office, which clears all paperwork that goes to the president, would also make sure that all of the relevant offices sign off on important selections before they happen. The two most important sign offs on something like the Medal of Freedom would be the chief of staff’s office, now headed by Rahm Emanuel, and the senior advisor’s office, now run by David Axelrod. For the Obama White House to have made this selection could mean one of only two possibilities: that they did not vet and clear the candidates, which suggests a level of incompetence beyond even missing tax evasions by cabinet nominees. Uncaught tax evasion does not come up on Google; Robinson’s record does. The other, more likely, possibility is that they knew and did not care.Unfortunately, that's a fair description of the White House's attitude. And until 60-70% of America's Jews stop automatically pulling the lever for Democrats on Election Day, Jews are going to continue to be treated with such open contempt by the Democrats.
The Bush 41 White House became infamous in the Jewish community for James Baker’s comment “F the Jews, they didn’t vote for us anyway.” The Obama administration’s approach appears to be: “F the Jews, they’re going to vote for us anyway.”

He's also giving an award to Desmond Tutu, who is much worse.
In all likelihood, they both knew and did care, for ideological reasons.

The Jews need Obama more he than he needs them. How apt and true.
Hopenchange, any one?
or maybe, jews do not vote based on a single issue alone
what a shock
I'm afraid to be against the Jews, after all they are Gods chosen people according to the Bible. If you don't believe in the bible, than say what you want, it dosen't matter anyway. They will never be destroyed.
