“It's always an honor to speak here on the House floor, and there's been a lot of interesting attention that's been given to an issue of whether or not the Obama administration supports Israel, doesn't support Israel, is more supportive of its enemies, and apparently, according to an article in the Weekly Standard this week, May 30, 2012, by Daniel Halper, and I'm quoting from the article here, it says: ``Obama stressed he probably knows about Judaism more than any other President because he read about it,'' Haaretz reports. ``He wondered how come no one asks Speaker of the House of Representatives John Boehner or Senate minority leader Mitch McConnell about their support to Israel.'' Similarly, he said to the group, ``I am not going to tell you again how I even feel about Israel, but why are we still talking about it?'' He then suggested that he should not be questioned about his commitment to the Jewish state because ``all his friends in Chicago were Jewish.'' I think there's a lot to be learned when we read people's comments or learn of people's comments that were not scripted, that were said just off the top of the head. Nobody put it in the teleprompter. It's not somebody else's words; it's words directly from the individual in question. So I've got to say, you know, the President says all his friends in Chicago were Jewish. I learned a lot from that. I didn't know that Jeremiah Wright was Jewish.…”
