Ohfercryinoutloud!
Its not fair. Its just not fair! We got saddled with Hillary, and John F'n Kerry. and yes, we even got saddled with Madeline Albright. You would think that would be enough dirtbag democrats digging for a Jew in the closet, but nooooooo.
Now we have this obamination:
Barack Obama's Wife's Cousin an 'Orthodox' Black Rabbi
Barack Obama's wife’s cousin is a Rabbi, according to the Jewish magazine Forward. Michelle Obama's first cousin once removed, Capers Funnye, shepherds the flock at a mostly black Israelite synagogue on Chicago’s South Side, the Beth Shalom B’nai Zaken Ethiopian Hebrew synagogue.
Forward reports that Rabbi Funnye’s mother, Verdelle Robinson Funnye (pronounced fuh-NAY), and Mrs. Obama's paternal grandfather, Frasier Robinson Jr., were sister and brother.
Rabbi Funnye converted to Judaism in a ceremony supervised by the Black Israelite rabbis. He later underwent another conversion procedure, reportedly supervised by Orthodox and Conservative rabbis. He has a Black Israelite ordination.
Gah. What a crock. They call themselves Black Hebrews, but there is no such thing, they made that up. They're not Hebrews. They're African.
They can call themselves whatever they want, they are not Jews. They started out as followers of Jesus Christ, and then they took parts of the Jewish religion and adapted it into something new, they are converts converting converts to an "alternative religion."
Their basic relgion is split into three seperate groups. There are what is known as the Black Jews, who maintain a Christological perspective and adopt Jewish rituals; then there are the Black Hebrews, who are more traditional in their practice of Judaism; and then there are the Black Israelites - that's what Obama's relative calls himself - and they are most nationalistic and farthest from traditional Judaism.
Finding this particular Jew in the closet ain't gonna help Obama none but it makes me wonder, what is it with these democrats that they seem to think that finding a Jewish relative is going to get them elected.

Not like the Dems need to do this. Most Jews in America tend to vote for the libtards and I cannot fathom why. The libs have not done one thing to help Israel in the last 40 years at least. Fortunately there are some Jews with common sense such as yourself.

Linda, great blog. Some are called black muslims too!!! Obama's, I have a friend of a friend who's friend is not a muslim. Does that make him a Christian? Hell no!!! This is a stretch at best and it panders to the least thoughtful amongst the crowd. For more starpower, next we'll be hearing that he or she was related to Sammy Davis Jr.
Some of the public are fully aware of the media, it's agenda and it's propaganda. Obama is not a suave and debonaire man of the cloth, nor man of the world, nor anything coming close to a world leader, he's the bastard child of the Kenyan Muslim and media made puppet of George Soros.

"...what is it with these democrats that they seem to think that finding a Jewish relative is going to get them elected."
Perhaps they see it as an antidote to B. Hussein Obama (pbuh)alleged Musulim-ness.
But it sure is stupid. Not even a true(dare I say it) blood cousin.

More like "Yahoo Serious."
Seriously, do these folks put chitterlings, feet and jowls on the menu at Seder? They are Jewish like the Nation of Islam is Muslim.

From their website: They have separate seating (in the sanctuary), don't keep the Sabbath, and eat milk and meat together...
It is basically a racially separate Reform or Conservative synagogue.
