His initial sentencing was excessive, it is time for clemencey.
Kein Yehi Ratzon.

May Hashem release Sholom Rubashkin – whether Obama be His chosen keli or someone else… a yid should be home with his family. Let us remember that Hashem released Yosef from prison, not Paroh – Amen Ken yehi ratzon, Sholom Rubashkin should be home with his family, free to serve Hashem, free to be a father and husband. May we hear good news, IYH.

We'll let's hope...

Obama will do at least one good thing! And that Shalom mordechai will be united with his wife and children who so desperately need him!!! And he needs them! May there be a geula protus and klolis now!

Just like hashem hardened Pharaoh’s heart hashem can soften this Pharaoh’s heart. Too beg Obama to free him is showing lack of faith we all just need to ask and put our trust in hashem that he will perform this miracle and soften Pharaoh’s heart

It is a mistake to expect Bark Hussein to do anything for a Jew. Better these Council members should say some Tehillim. See What Yirmiyohu Hanovi wrote, Perek 17, P’sukkim 5 & 7.

Obama has one last opportunity to ingratiate himself to the Jewish community and repair his current reputation. Lets hope he has the wisdom to take it.

What to say?
January 19, 2017 7:33 am

I just called the number, and am wondering what I should have said, and what my call should have accomplished.

They just cut me off, and said I need to submit my request online.

Amen, let there be good news!

The heart of a ruler is in the hand of Hashem and our behaviors influence the outcome as well.

Although I believe this was a complete waste of time, here is a chance for Hussein Obama to be remembered favorable by all the Jews he hurt. Do I have any takers on this bet?

Obama has no sympathy
January 18, 2017 9:38 pm

He only cares about leakers of national security material, terrorists, and drug dealers.

I pray that this works.

Unbelievable
January 18, 2017 9:21 pm

that he sits while he pardons traitors who LITERALLY endangered Americans lives

You can't count on Obama for anything
January 18, 2017 9:10 pm

Halveay I should be wrong this time, but i am hopeful that Trump will be the one to do it. And SOON IY’H.

as #2 said…obama is ‘selective’ and it is said that it was Obama BEFORE he became president that told someone in charge in Postville, ‘we will get him”.

Please Hashem!!!

BS”D Yes Hashem go for it, make our day

We pray
January 18, 2017 8:07 pm

That this works

May H-sh-m grant them instant success.
January 18, 2017 8:04 pm

Obama is pardoning those he thinks will help destroy ‘White’ civilization, and Rubashkin does not fit into that category.
So I think Obama will ignore such requests.
But it also says the heart of a king is in the hand of H-sh-m, so perhaps he will do it anyway, G-d willing.

Justice.

Justice stinks. & full of leis. Unbeliveble how Sholom R can get 27 years. It’s not normal.
