On the one hand, this would have been true had Obama not tried to trot out the “I’ve never been a Muslim” blanket denial.
Now that he has, it is a question that goes to the candidate’s integrity.
Unless religion, like sex, is one of those things “that everybody lies about.”
On the other hand, the Besuki school’s status as public doesn’t mean the same thing that a public school in the U.S. implies. Most publicly funded schools around the world, and Indonesia is no exception, provide religious instruction for their students in the faith designated by their parents. Obama’s Muslim education therefore is completely congruent with his attendance at Besuki.
So why can’t the candidate come clean on this?
.
to try to tar a guy because he may have gone to a school that taught an Islamo-centric worldview WHEN HE WAS A LITTLE KID is absolutely ludicrous.
this strategy will backfire, big time on conservatives. Most americans don’t care what school he went to as a kid.
There is plenty in his adult life that can be used against him. Going after things that may have never even occured in his childhood is just plain ridiculous
