Wow
I guess there have been Arabs in the White House and we didn't know it.
Rahm Emanuel's dad was very clear about it in the Jerusalem Post
"Obviously he will influence the president to be pro-Israel," he was quoted as saying. "Why wouldn't he be? What is he, an Arab? He's not going to clean the floors of the White House."

Or wait
maybe I am misunderstanding it.
Hmm
Is he saying that Arabs are only worth being floor cleaners?
(Is he also saying that the only non pro-Israel people are Arabs?)

Regardless of how loaded his statement is, one thing is clear:

Racism is racism no matter how you look at it and no matter who says it.

The White House deserves better. Barack deserves better.

Rahm should repudiate his dad's saying, because to be silent about it is to approve it.
