Brooklyn, NY - Hikind: Obama Is Frightening, Vote McCain |
|
Brooklyn, NY - For 20 years, Barack Obama Did Not Right the Wrongs of the Reverend Wright’s Racist and anti-Israel Rants. If Obama couldn’t stand up for what’s right, how is he going to be the president of the United States?
Assemblyman Dov Hikind (D-Brooklyn) today endorsed Senator John McCain for President of the United States, saying, “It’s about character, and Barack Obama can not look the American people in the eye and say that he did not know that his Reverend was an unrepentant racist – the man who consecrated his marriage, who baptized his children, who was his spiritual advisor and confidante. It’s not plausible, it’s disingenuous, and it disqualifies him from ably serving as the president of the United States.
“The Reverend Jeremiah Wright repeatedly lauded Louis Farrakhan, conferring upon him honorific titles, often sounding like a devoted disciple of Farrakhan’s. Farrakhan called Judaism the ‘synagogue of Satan.’ And Rev. Wright echoed the anti-Semitism, blaming Israel for 9/11. Wright said, ‘You don’t see the connection between 9-11-01 and the Israeli Palestinian?…..something wrong?....You wanna buy my glasses?’
Obama did nothing. He said nothing. Not for one year. Not for five years…not even after 10 years. For 20 years, Obama did not protest his pastor’s racist tantrums. That is a catastrophic error in
judgement and brings into question whether he has the integrity, the strength of character and the discerning judgment to lead our great country.
Obama issued a disclaimer on Reverend Wright, contending he had not heard the virulent anti-America and anti-Israel sermons. How can he disclaim two decades of Wright’s disgraceful diatribes when he not only said nothing but in fact supported Reverend Wright’s church in word and deed? For this alone, Obama disqualified himself for the presidency.
Obama was wrong on Wright and he is wrong for President.
Obama’s view on world politics is frightening. “I cannot support Obama’s willingness to sit down personally with Ahmadinejad, or other leaders who call for the destruction of Israel, without reconditions.
Our country needs a President with a backbone and the strength to face our enemies. If Barack Obama didn’t have the courage and wisdom to denounce his racist reverend in Chicago, how on earth will he deal with America’s enemies who want to destroy everything America stands for?”
“As a proud American and a proud Jew, I will cast my ballot for President for John McCain. Barack Obama has not done anything to deserve my vote.”

You can't imagin how right you are, people are scared to death, (go to your shull or mikva and by a family simcha, never saw heimishe oilum so terrified).
When a democratic national never reached out to orthodox jews, and have such radical freinds, and his background is full of clouds, even beside his liberal policys's of tax and welfare.
His anti business enviroment reminds people what dinkins was for nyc, even as a personality he was a real "Mench".
His rallies reminds people of Germany in the 30's, his media coverage reminds people of isreal vs the world.

Even those who voted for Clinton and Gore and later for kerry, told me this time we can't defend him, so what should a pro value guy say?
People in NYC/NYS can make a difference, even it don't make the electoral count.
Also, in NJ it could make a big difference, in Philly it could make a big difference as ohio.
The massage for our political representetive will be very strong if all of us came out and realy vote.
In todays world, votes for a president is not just him personal, in the next years to come everyone wants to see what are the issues for this community, they look how they voted in presidential election.
so again, everyone needs to go to the polls and vote next teusday.

Dov Hikind has more guts and more integrity than Joe Lieberman. Just the other day, Lieberman said that he will support Obama if he wins. So you can see Lieberman is getting ready to go either way and that means he has no brave and strong convictions; he's a fence sitter.
Dov Hikind however, also stood up against those rabbis who allowed molesting to go on and on, without a protest and uncontested for DECADES.
if not for his recent airing of the issue, the innocence and sanity of our children would still be ignored for more years.
I'm voting for McCain iy"H.

It's not just Wright, or even Ayers and Dohrn, the bloodthirsty terrorists. Obama is a CLOSE PERSONAL FRIEND of Rashid Khalidi, and was a close personal friend of Edward Said (what's the opposite of olov hasholom? if someone is not resting in peace, what is he resting in? war? whatever, Said hot shen gepeigert.) This should worry Jews, at least a little.

He has voted for higher taxes in his state of Illinois!
He has raised socialists agenda ever since he was a community organizer!
Hes been appeasing the east and will meet with rouge leaders with out pre-conditions!
He promises to redistribute the wealth, come on that is so MARXIST!
He has hundreds of thousands attend his rally's like Hitler, Carter etc.

Oct 27, 2008 at 10:17 PM Letter to the Editor in today's Hamodia Says:Report as Inappropriate
A letter to the editor in today's Hamodia reads:
Heed the Messages in Obama's Story
It is established Jewish wisdom that if you want to know who a person is, look at his friends. As Sen. Barack Obama stated in his book, the person who had the greatest influence on his life until age 18, upon investigation by Investor's Business Daily, turned out to be a communist. His pastor for 20 years was an anti-white, anti-American, hate-filled racist. His first political campaign began in the home of Bill Ayers, a terrorist who helped found the Weathermen, a terrorist organization in the 1960s and 1970s, an unrepentant individual who only regrets not having done more. Yet Obama claims not to have known what these people believed or preached. Do you believe him?
He is a man who promises one thing--for example, stating that Jerusalem should be the undivided capital of Israel when speaking to AIPAC -- and then "changes his mind" within 24 hours. He promised to accept public funding for the campaign, and then changed his mind again when he saw an advantage. Can we trust any of his promises?
He wants to be president of the U.S. but explained his refusal to wear a U.S. flag pin because it might be offensive to some people in the world. I thought he was running for U.S. president, not world president. He explained his refusal to show deference for the "Star Spangled Banner," the national anthem, because it was too bellicose. Perhaps the words "land of the free and home of the brave" irk him too much. Is there a pattern in all this?
Perhaps McCain isn't the greatest choice for president, but at least we know he loves this country. As I understand it, our mandate to vote in the elections is based on our obligation to show hakaras hatov to this country. Wouldn't it make sense to vote for someone who loves America rather than someone who despises all it stands for?
The haftorah of Parashas Bereishis states, "O deaf ones listen, and blind ones, gaze to see," followed by "Seeing much but heeding not, opening ears but hearing not." The prophet Yeshayahu is talking to us.
May Hashem protect us from all evil and bring the geulah very soon.

Maybe This Will Make Up Your Minds !!!
OBAMA DISTORTS AND LIES -- ALL AMERICANS TO PAY HIGHER TAXES
Senator Obama is not being truthful when he says only Americans earning $250,000 will get a tax increase.
Senator Obama plans to let the current 2007 rates lapse. The rates under Obama will return to the higher 2000 level. Senator Obama claims that letting a tax cut lapse is not a "tax increase."
But requiring Americans to pay more taxes in 2008 than in 2007 amounts to a TAX INCREASE.
For a married family, filing jointly and earning $75,000 a year, this INCREASE will be $3,074.
For a married family, filing jointly and earning $50,000, this INCREASE will be $1,512.
Even struggling American families making just $25,000 a year will see a tax INCREASE-- they'll pay $715 more in 2010 than they did in 2007.
Across the board, ALL WORKING AMERICANS WILL SEE SIGNIFICANT INCREASES in their taxes with Obama's plans.
Yes, it will affect Americans even if their household income is as low as $25,000.

You are wrong.
Politician's are not stupid and you can't fool them.
All you can do by showing that you will smile to them, in spite of them stabbing you in the back, is to encourage THEM and OTHER POLITICIANS, that Jews like you have no backbone and no self respect and and that all politicians will LEARN FROM YOU to spit at Jews Voters, while the Jewish voters will REWARD them with their vote BECAUSE they spat at them.
If Jews show politicians that they have no backbone and will vote for a RASHA, just to try and appease him anyway, they learn a lesson form you:
The lesson you are teaching all politicians is that the Jewish vote has no backbone and does not depend on any real issues because Jews are WIMPS, who will vote for whomever they thing is the inevitable winner anyway even if the politicians continue to abuse the Jewish voters, again and again and again - and that's exactly what they WILL do if we show them that we are such wimps.
Jewish Power on election day depends on one thing and on one thing only that we refuse to vote for a Rosho, even if we think he may win anyway - we stick to our principals and THAT is what politicians respect and reckon with.
