Obama celebrates Hanukkah 2 weeks early

Obama celebrates Hanukkah 2 weeks early. The president noted “our unshakeable support and commitment to the security of the nation of Israel.” (But he didn’t celebrate Ramadan or his birthday two weeks early, did he?) Obama’s IS right, this is the most transparent administration EVAH (but just not in the sense that he meant it.)

  • Why is anyone surprised? You didn't think Barry would let a high holiday interfere with his golf, did you?

  • What a fool. Imagine the uproar from Barry if Bush had celebrated Ramadan two weeks early... Tweaking religious holidays and their traditions is sheer chutzpah! Lighting all the candles the first day shows no respect, no education, and no class. Some day we will find out what or who was behind Barry's rise to power, and down deep will be a hatred of Judaism, and a fanatical support for Islamic religious beliefs/traditions. History will be Barry's harshest mistress, oh and by the way- MERRY CHRISTMAS to all that visit here! That ought to piss him off!!!!

  • Why do the Jews support this fool? He won't pass up the traditions of Ram-a-Ram, whatever that entails.. Won't let the wife, kids or dog fly anywhere with him. Transparent or just easy to see thru?

  • Never let it be said that barry lets the office of President get in the way of his planned vacations. This proves it more than anything. He or his staff could not even do some simple reach. Lighting all the candles on the Menorah at one times shows just how little he knows or even cares about the Jewish Faith.

  • Supposedly, Obama "celebrated" now because he will be in Hawaii (on important official business - vacation) on Dec 20, the start of Hanukkah. Do they not allow candles in Hawaii? Or is he just afraid no Jews will be able to see them from here?

  • And how this is supposed to regain the votes of all the Jews that he pissed off before he goes on vacation?
