From Think Progress:



White House celebrates Rosh Hashanah a week early.

Last night, President Bush issued a statement wishing “greetings” to those “celebrating Rosh Hashanah“:

The sound of the Shofar heralds the beginning of a new year and a time of remembrance and renewal for the Jewish people. During these holy days, men and women are called to reflect on their faith and to honor the blessings of creation.

The enduring traditions of Rosh Hashanah remind us of the deep values of faith and family that strengthen our Nation and help guide us each day. As Jewish people around the world come together to celebrate Rosh Hashanah, it is a chance to look to the new year with hope and faith.

Laura and I send our best wishes for a blessed Rosh Hashanah and shanah tovah.

Unfortunately for the White House, Rosh Hashanah does not start until next week — sunset on Sept. 12. (Happy Thanksgiving, Mr. President!)

1. Who is the dumbass Jewish guy kowtowing to bush?

Or is the picture from a previous year?

Shouldn't someone of the Jewish faith especially if he is probably a Rabbi know better?

7. Maybe he knows that by Rosh Hashanah Israel will be in a war for survival ...

... with the US dropping a-bombs on I-ran, biatches.

8. Oy! What a putz! A real meshugginer!

A schmuck like him shouldn't be playing the big macher...

9. Didn't his Dad falsely proclaim Pearl Harbor day once a few months early?

10. He shouldn't be holding a religious ceremony in the White House at all

But of course hoping for sense in that area is hoping for too much.
