Can You Believe It? Black President of the United States Gives Highest Honor to Gay Jew
There is a prayer in Judaism called the Shehecheyanu in which Jews thank God for having "lived to see the day...." It is commonly uttered when something utterly wonderful and utterly unforeseen happens.
Yesterday, the African American President of the United States, gave the highest civilian honor he could bestow to Harvey Milk, the gay activist Jew from San Francisco.
What a cause for joy and for that prayer. Harvey was a Jewish atheist but I don't think he'd mind this prayer at this occasion: "Blessed are You, LORD, our God, King of the universe, Who has kept us alive, sustained us, and enabled us to see this day."
Those Congressional town meeting thugs will really be howling "I want my country back" now.

To know who else is in "their" country, one will have to know their positions on a few matters: tea bags: Obama's place of birth: his socialist ambitions; messianic magical speeches: death panels & etc. Only after the positions on these and other issues are revealed can one know whether they ever lived, or were considered a citizen, in "their" country.

Compare the recipients of the Medal under Obama to those under Bush. Compare the American Indian who fought in WWII to Bremer.
I hope George "slam dunk" Tenet strangles on his.

***FROM JEWISH VOICE FOR PEACE: "His name is Ezra Nawi"
"Join Naomi Klein, Neve Gordon, Noam Chomsky and thousands of others and tell Israel not to jail Ezra Nawi, one of Israel’s most courageous human rights activists. His crime? He tried to stop a military bulldozer from destroying the homes of Palestinian Bedouins in the South Hebron region. Nawi, a gay, Jewish Israeli of Iraqi descent, is a threat to the settlers and the Israeli government because he has brought international attention to efforts to illegally remove Palestinians from the Hebron region. He will be sentenced on August 16."
***WATCH the video of Nawi trying to stop the home demolition and SEND A LETTER to the Israeli Consulate - http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/301/t/9462/campaign.jsp?campaign_KEY=27357
