"Vote for Obama."

Schumer visits South Florida to tell of Obama's support for Israel
New York Sen. Charles "Chuck" Schumer urged Jewish voters across South Florida on Sunday to back Barack Obama's presidential bid, touting the Democratic nominee's record on Israel..."Right now I'm 120 percent for Obama," said [66-year-old Michael] Eibeschitz. If there were a candidate for president who said, "I'm Christian. Oh my father was Jewish, yes, but I'm Christian. And I attended Jewish day school and spoke Hebrew for a time and lived in Israel, but I'm Christian...," would anyone freaking believe him?! To quote Obama himself yesterday on ABC's "This Week" to George Stephanopoulus:
Let's not play games. What I was suggesting -- you're absolutely right that John McCain has not talked about my Muslim faith.
Basically, if Louis Farrakhan were running as a Democrat and Joe Lieberman were running as a Republican, Chuck Schumer -- or as I call him for short, Schmuck -- would tell Jews to vote for Farrakhan. And they would.
Then again, the Jewish vote for Obama in Florida makes sense, since that's where old Jews go to die. And since euthanasia is illegal, they figure they'll just vote for Obama instead.
