#1 Maybe he meant the Jewnitor.

#2 He wouldn't have been thinking of George Soros, would he? Nah.

#3 Everyone should pay the same income tax (and that means sales taxes too). Zero.

#4 The Left can spin this all they like. The Jewish community knows this man is not their friend.

#5 One thing I found interesting when I recently read The Garden of the Beasts is that Roosevelt himself was reluctant to issue visas to the Jews who were desperate to leave Germany in the 1930's when they were facing increasing persecution under the NAZIs. That venerable old Democrat tried to silence Jewish groups in this country who were speaking out about Hitler because it was "bad for business".

#6 You read that too (Garden of the Beasts)? Yeah: it was specifically bad because of how much American debt the Germans were carrying. The Roosevelt Administration was freaking terrified of the Nazis defaulting on all that debt. It was a lot more important to them than a few Jews getting oppressed.

And what happened? Millions died and they defaulted anyhow. Moral cowardice seldom pays.

#7 Freudian slip orÂ…just a slip?

Kinda like his remarks about Pennsylvania voters clinging bitterly to their guns, etc., to San Francisco donors. The excuse given was that he was merely "talking to them in their language".

#8 Kinda like his remarks about Pennsylvania voters clinging bitterly to their guns, etc., to San Francisco donors. Also consider the Pennsylvania who shrugged off this insult, as will many Jews who just love Obama.

Read about the MS St. Louis

#10 Got his Louis Farrakhan speaking engagement notes mixed up did he?

#11 When will the Jews in this country realize the Left wants first the Middle East and then the US to be Judenfrei? The Left started it in Germany {National SOCIALIST Workers Party} and has tried to continue its direction in the Middle East.

#12 Maybe he'd settle for them paying the same rate as a white interloper in Hymietown. The "reverends" Sharpton and Jackson could be on the Blue Ribbon commission to figure it all out...

#13 The odd thing is that the President was suggesting that millionaires were paying a smaller tax rate than Jews. So, we Jews are paying too much, which means we're suckers, instead of being cunning tax-minimizers. May 5772 be different for us.

L'Shana Tova.

That's a gross overgeneralization, Shieldwolf. You're smarter than that.

#15 Actually, there are two over-generalizations there.

#16 For once, I wouldn't make too much out of it.

Judge your president by his deeds, not by his verbal slips. I think I had worse than this one.

#17 The problem is, when a slipup like this does occur, it indicates what the person is thinking unconsciously.
