Are you surprised?
December 31, 2017 1:06 pm

I’m not surprised at all. When asked to look into the matter his attorney general, Eric Holder, kind of said this wasn’t his business. This from the chief law enforcer in the country! Of course Obama had no problem overriding any other agency that he felt like overriding but couldn’t figure out how to override this biased decision. (Check Holder’s and Obama’s astonishing record(s) of the names of those they did actually release from prison;take an aspirin first.)

WE SHOULD REPAY OBAMA FOR HIS DUPLICITY AND CALLOUSNESS BY VOTING THE DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATES, IN ALL FUTURE ELECTIONS, BACK TO THE STONE AGE

Who knows how many dark dirty & ugly secret back room deals were
December 28, 2017 7:21 pm

were made during his watch. But the great descent started earlier in Clinton’s administration, it just accelerated at a much faster pace in Obama’s. To try and reverse this downward trend is an awesome task for the new president & his administration, since there are many strongly entrenched negative forces working against the effort for good moral healthy changes. Hashem have pity! משיח עכשיו!

Our President Trump
December 27, 2017 6:03 pm

Those who accused President Trump of being antisemitic should be reminded that the actions of President Trump of releasing Shalom Rubashkin, the Jerusalem move, the embracing of Israel and so many other things are not the actions of an antisemite. G-d bless and protect President Trump and his family, they have sacrificed their own lifestyle and privacy in order to Make America Great Again. And as America gets great again, the rest of the world will benefit as well.

You are right about Obama and the riots that went out of control during his reign of terror in the White House.

Obama and Jews
December 26, 2017 9:37 pm

Obama has never been a lover of “believing Jews”. Yes, he likes Weinstein, Spielberg and liberal Jews. So we shouldn’t be surprised if his lack of interest in helping Robiskin

My 25 sense
December 26, 2017 7:03 pm

This presidential imposter set his own people back 50 years. America has not seen riots like those on his watch since Newark NJ 1967

Obama and his dear "Love " for the Jewish nation
December 26, 2017 11:43 am

Obama is Muslim and hates Jews .
He started and funded ISIS
He freed many mega terrorists
He did much damage and intensified the casualties and situation in Israel and US as well
He didn’t pardon or commute any Jew
#16 When talking about love and hate please think before you speak since yidden are people of warmth and love
And he is someone who derives pleasure from pain and hurting others

Again SMR “Wasn’t Pardoned”, he still has to pay “Restitution” substantially & is on “Parole”, pardoned means he doesn’t have either, big difference, remember that

TO ALL THE OBAMA LOVERS
December 26, 2017 9:37 am

First of all Obama did not pardon Pallard even though he had plenty of years to do so. Also Obama had 8 YEARS to pardon or cumute Rubashkin. Did he? No he did’nt . He has’nt done one good thing for Israel. The United States under the Obama administration was not frendly with Israel. I want to know who could tell who has done more and been more pro israel and a better President? Obama or Trump? Not a hard QUESTION. And to #16 you have no clue what your talking about. Obama got tons of drug dealers out of… Read more »

Pollard Corrected
December 26, 2017 8:14 am

Obama did not pardon Pollard. Obama refused to do so. Pollard became eligible for parole.

Polard
December 26, 2017 8:10 am

Obama did not pardon Polard, it was an automatic parole based on eligibility.

December 26, 2017 8:08 am

Pollards sentence was not commuted at all get your facts straight

To #16
December 26, 2017 8:02 am

Obama did not commute or pardon Pollard. Don’t try to credit him where none is due. He refused to do it. Pollard is only out now as his prison term of 30 years just finished. He still has very harsh terms for parole / supervised release.
No one is dancing with the harsh terms he has now.

December 26, 2017 7:56 am

Obama did not commute Pollard. Pollard served a full 30 years, which was the life sentence he was given under the guidelines at the time of his sentencing.

#16 should go back to pre-school. Where is Pollard and what was done for him?

to # 16
December 26, 2017 7:52 am

Pollard being released had nothing to do with Obama. He was freed per the federal guidelines in place at the time of his sentencing. Obama happened to be potus when his 30 years were up. Obama’s involvement in the case, if you can call it that, was saying No to clemency that would allow him to move to israel.

December 26, 2017 7:32 am

Pollard sentence was not commuted,. He was, however, eligible for parole.

Pollard
December 26, 2017 7:04 am

Obama commuted Pollard and no one says boo. No gratitude for Obama, no dancing in the streets. Explain that…… Lovers will always love and haters will always hate.

Gratitude
December 26, 2017 6:11 am

How many have written whithouse.gov to express their support for his good work?

Not just semantics
December 26, 2017 4:24 am

SMR had his sentence commuted, not pardoned.

What a shock

why the surprise???
December 26, 2017 1:16 am

it is well known that if you put any random guy as a democratic candidate for presidency, majority of Jews and blacks will vote democratic. so what is new here???

OBAMA JUST PAID LIP SERVICE TO THE JEWISH COMMUNITY. HE WANTED TO PARDON ALL BLACK PRISONERS BUT REALISED THE JAILS WOULD BE OUT OF BUSINESS

Trump
December 26, 2017 12:44 am

Let us see
Many many Jewish organisations
Plenty in the North West
But also in the East ostracize those Jews of their community
Who have Republican leanings
If we as plain Jews unadorned with titles would only do our civic duty at mid-Terms and latter at the end of Trump’s first term and ONLY vote Republican
Thus showing clearly to USA and the world that we are deeply grateful to Trump and his administration including of course Nikki Haley and are willing to meaningfully support his/their efforts on behalf of Am Yisroel bechol mokom shehaim

Hashem is amazing! Bh he sent a shliach Donald Trump as the best president of United states to pardon him.

They already made up for their mistakes by voting for Trump, who commuted Rubashkin’s sentence and freed him, Boruch Hashem. G-d Bless Trump and his precious family! G-d Bless the Jewish Nation. G-d Bless America!

No surprise

Its obama. End of story. Bye

Mind boggling
December 25, 2017 11:08 pm

Chassidim and most mosdos voted for Obama both times around . Go figure

This is no news!
December 25, 2017 10:54 pm

This ant Semite named Obama will definitely pay for this and many other things!

Anyone who voted for him or for Hillary should do real teshuvah! And go help someone to make up for this!

Formula
December 25, 2017 10:51 pm

Obama pardoned people based on a formula he came up with. It goes like this:

Drug dealer + Black = pardon

Everyone else = no pardon.
