LGF reports that the Obama webiste had an article posted to it by an independent diarist calling him/her/itself "Socialists for Obama" entitled "How the Jewish Lobby Works." The title tells you everything you need to know about the contents.There was also this little gem: "The Israeli Connection to 9/11."
Now, to be fair, Obama himself is not a rabid anti-Semite of a 9/11 "truther." These postings occurred in a section of the web page where anyone can sign up and post. Both postings were removed--as they rightly should have been. However, that removal only occurred after two months, and only after LGF called attention to them. As LGF notes:
A search of the official my.barackobama.com site for “Jewish Lobby” reveals an enormous amount of antisemitic hatred being posted. This is really shocking stuff, and shows beyond any doubt that this is no fluke.
There are hundreds, possibly thousands, of posts that refer to the “Jewish lobby” at the Obama site. I stopped looking at the results on page 10.
If you run the same search at Democratic Underground and Daily Kos, you get similar results.
What's striking to me is the lack of any serious pushback--post something about the "Jewish lobby" or something "truthery" about 9/11 at any of the big Lefty sites, and nobody much objects or finds it distasteful. Wonder why that is?
