Sanity -> Obama’s National Security Advisor Tells Anti-Semitic "Joke" (4/26/2010 12:07:43 PM)


"Greedy Merchants" Video - http://www.breitbart.tv/obamas-national-security-advisor-tells-joke-depicting-jews-as-greedy-merchants

This to me seems representative of almost the entire Obama administrations' views of Jewish people, and I think its doubtful that Obama will be getting the lion's share of the Jewish vote again.

Oh for God's sake, that joke was hilarious. I've heard far worse jokes about the Jews.

So if the taliban guy hadn't been such a jerk and he had bought a tie, he would have had all the water he wanted. Instead he rips on the jewish guy, so he never learns what the ties are for. I guess this shows it pays to be nice to strangers, they might be able to help you in ways you never thought of.

For God's sake...it was a joke, and a funny one at that. Lighten the fuck up Sanity, have you no sense of humour?

Sanity is one of those people that look for any reason to rag on Obama, his administration, democrats or anyone that does not agree with the Republicans.

The fact that a tea party member spit on a black congressman is okay with sanity.


Before you argue that there is no proof, it was caught on film, the offender was detained and the congressman opted NOT to press charges.

I myself am critical of Obama and his admin, but to say that someone's joke is representative of their views on Jews is ludicrous. Does Rahm Emanuel know this?

And I thought it was going to be a bad joke.

Sanity, but it's "O.K." when they do it!

Anybody who isn't Popeye or Sanity. They're being picked on, obviously.

It's strange, but I never saw all of this pissing and moaning from people who leaned to the right when the chimp was opening every press conference by mocking any afflicted hacks who'd turned up for five minutes. That';s cool, but anti semitism isn't. Does that mean Sanity's a pawn of the ZOG?

Who is "they" Popeye?

Considering you keep telling us ad-nauseum what a fair-minded Independent you are who is neither Republican nor Democrat, neither conservative nor liberal, I'm just curious who "they" could possibly be?

Wolfe, Democrats.
Moon, I'm a big boy I can answer for myself thanks.

I'm listening to the radio. What's even funnier is listening to Obama tripping over his own dick saying that "immigration is the federal govt's responsibility!"
Gee! Really? Then *when* are they going to start enforcing those responsabilities?
The only "irresponsibility" is on Obama's part not Arizona's.

You mean like you look for any reason to rip on the right? [8|] Thought so.

Good thing you're talking about Bush or people would be all over your ass for that comment.

So why are you complaining about something you wouldn't even have noticed if somebody in the previous administration had done it, then? You've never struck me as somebody who's overly concerned about antisemitism, put it that way. Haven't you made a few rather nastier comments about the zionist conspiracy wrecking the economy before now?




DomKen -> RE: Obama’s National Security Advisor Tells Anti-Semitic "Joke" (4/26/2010 2:19:21 PM)

How, precisely, is that joke anti semitic? More specifically how does it portray the jew as a greedy merchant?




Sanity -> RE: Obama’s National Security Advisor Tells Anti-Semitic "Joke" (4/26/2010 2:38:25 PM)


You need someone to take you by the hand and enlighten you point by point what was wrong with that joke, Ken?






Sanity -> RE: Obama’s National Security Advisor Tells Anti-Semitic "Joke" (4/26/2010 2:52:26 PM)

Jones apologizes for joke about Jewish vendor and Taliban

US national security adviser James Jones said sorry Monday, after telling a joke about a Taliban militant and a Jewish vendor, to kick off a deadly serious keynote speech on Middle East peace.



The quip, which came at a moment of sharp US-Israeli tensions, was greeted with laughter and applause at the dinner, but the Anti-Defamation League, which campaigns against anti-Semitism, later described it as "inappropriate." 


"I wish that I had not made this off-the-cuff joke at the top of my remarks, and I apologize to anyone who was offended by it," said Jones, following his remarks to the Washington Institute for Near East Policy last Wednesday.


"It also distracted from the larger message I carried that day: that the United States commitment to Israel's security is sacrosanct," Jones said in the statement. The White House distributed a transcript of the speech by Jones, but there was no reference to the joke, which the national security advisor said was intended to "set the stage of my remarks."


It was the only moment of levity in the speech, which detailed US efforts to thwart Iran's nuclear program and to broker a resumption of talks between Israel and the Palestinians.


Abraham Foxman, national director of the Anti-Defamation League earlier told ABC News that the joke was "inappropriate."


"It's stereotypic. Some people believe they need to start a speech with a joke. This was about the worst kind of joke the head of the national security council could have told."

Moon,....ah,...No.




WolfeTone -> RE: Obama’s National Security Advisor Tells Anti-Semitic "Joke" (4/26/2010 2:58:00 PM)

Oh for Christ's sake, I could have thought of much worse jokes than that. People are far too thinned skinned. I've heard far worse jokes told about the Irish even, and I haven't lost my bop. I still think the one about the dyslexic man is funny (Did you hear about the dyslexic Irish Catholic? He kissed his wife and beat the Pope with a shovel).

It was a joke. Now, was it appropriate to tell for something so serious, no.

Edit - Spelling

It's my experience that most Americans have no sense of humour. The prevailing attitude is that mocking others makes for good humour when in fact, it is mocking oneself that is the most hilarious.

American humour sucks ass.
