Oh wait, I know the answer. He's growing the Democrat base.
What are you talking about? Move of the federal govenment including the civil service employees (like the post office) are in a hiring freeze. They are moving people around and letting them go not hiring more.

I dont like him either, but Im not going to sit here and call him Hitler, and call him the organizer of the 3rd reich etc...thats just over the top
What would you call him?

Well, he's acting like a dictator, maybe that's why. He doesn't care for Jews (Israel) nor does he care for the American people. He throws his friends under the bus, I'm sure there is no limit to his lack of caring and loyalty. I guess he would be more like Saddam, then Hitler.

I would call him that, IF I had believed that he was actually going to do what he said he would. But since I knew that he wouldn't keep his word once elected, I'm not dissapointed, because it (at least to me) was expected. I was also not happy with Bush, but Obama is out of control.

I'm jewish. He doesn't care for Jews? No, he's trying to be diplomatic with the relations between Israel and Palestine. Throws his friends under the bus? No, he just doesn't lie for them like Bush and Cheney did. A dictator forces people to do what they want. Bush and Cheney used to force reporters not to talk and frequently leave interviews and often forced them to provide the questions before televised speeches so they can prepare an answer prior. I guess Bush and Cheney would be closer to that but even they didn't order their own people killed. Instead they sent them off to an unprovoked war in Iraq. Learn your facts before spewing crap.

Hitler came from a family overrun with schizophrenia and ordered an aunt that was in an institution murdered to cover up that fact. I guess your just spitting out biased crap. No matter how bad you think Obama is, at least he can form a complete sentence. Bush and Palin are both incapable of that. With your response about Hitler compared to Obama, I wonder if you fall into that same category.

Obama has problems with Israeli Jews building apartments in their own capital. Mexico disputes US ownership of the entire SW USA, are christians forbidden from building homes in AZ?

Why are Jews being singled out by the world and Obama's administration?

If you want to be specific he didn't want them to build because he's hoping that the israeli's and palestinians will finally sit down and hash out their differences and come to a peaceful conclusion. He thought it would be a good gesture if they stopped building; but it is their battle and not ours so if Obama considered it wrong, that's his opinion. I still don't consider him an anti-semite. Trust me, I always keep my eye out for them and would LOUDLY come after anyone who I discovered was one.
As for the world, other religions believe Jesus is the savior.We are still waiting for the savior. You don't have to leave the US to see anti-semitism. I have experienced it in the midwest and down south especially.
