When Nicolas Kristof of the NYT interviewed Obama in 2006, Obama was able to recite the Muslim Call to Prayer word for word in an Arabic accent.
Hmmm
just imagine if a white man had said typical black people or blacks are greedy for money not including the rest of what he his wife and his rev have said
So why hasn’t the media said he is what he is a racist, just why????????
No he goes on shows like the view and ellen d and on the view three women are giving him a free pass on him being a racist instead saying he is sexy
unbelievable
there are some right idiots around and they always seem to come from the left
he’s sexy er no he’s a racist and a bigot who hates you because you are either white, Italian, jewish etc
what now don’t you get?
Time to wake up and open your eyes dumbo
exactly WHO says that, ‘Obama is not Muslim’?
what does Obama say?
One in 10; huh? O.K., as close as the last two elections have been, if 10% of the Dems do not vote for him either by staying home or voting for McCain, that, by itself, could throw the election to McCain.
AM I RIGHT OR WRONG? Somebody help da boy out here.
Michelle Obama would NEVER wear a BBQ apron that read: “The Other White Meat”.
FYI.......Saul Alinsky died in 1972....BOH was born in 1961.
Bwahaha...he cannot even bring himself to deal with the TUCC and Rev Archie Bunker Wright, no way he ever says that the Quoran is not the word of God and Mohammed was not his prophet...
Thanks for your tip. He was working for the Saul Alinsky people in Chicago.
As such, one can call him a disciple of the ‘Rules for Radicals’ author/deity.
It is very hard to tell no dems, 1 in 10 may believe him to be a Muslim, that does not mean that some percentage will not vote for him based on that.
Add in the youth vote, and unknown Republican and Conservative intensity, and no one can say for certain one way or another.
Even with pissed off Republicans staying home, I don’t see McCain losing this election. Now, if we had a die-in-the wool conservative Republican, I don’t think that person would necessarily have a chance. In a twisted sort of way, we are lucky to have McCain.
If he’s a Muslim, does that mean that he prays five times a day towards Mecca? That would be a bit of a tip off, wouldn’t it?
Even that would not matter. Muslims are given the right to lie in order to promote their own subversive Muslim/ Jihadist objectives. Read an article the other day on FR about his reaction to a Pakistani human rights issue that all but confirmed that he is a closet Muzzie.
I have one question, “Is he worth the risk even if you are a flaming liberal??”
Do they know something we don't?
>If you believe this poll, 6 1/2 years after 9/11, 90% of the nation is in such denial-— that it’s willing to elect a President who was brought up Muslim & whose middle name is Hussein.<
Poll nothing! The brainless voters are proof!
It’s terrifying.
> dems have no idea what they are voting for<
Hope and change. Hope is dangerous and change is overrated!
Was Obama Ever a Muslim?
“I’ve always been a Christian,” said Obama, focusing on his own personal lack of practice of Islam as a child to deny any connection to Islam. But Muslims do not see practice as key. For them, that he was born to a line of Muslim males makes him born a Muslim. Further, all children born with an Arabic name based on the H-S-N trilateral root (Hussein, Hassan, and others) can be assumed to be Muslim, so they will understand Obama’s full name, Barack Hussein Obama, to proclaim him a born Muslim.
More: family and friends considered him as a child to be Muslim. In “Obama Debunks Claim About Islamic School,” Nedra Pickler of the Associated Press wrote on January 24, 2007, that
Obama’s mother, divorced from Obama’s father, married a man from Indonesia named Lolo Soetoro, and the family relocated to the country from 1967-71. At first, Obama attended the Catholic school, Fransiskus Assisis, where documents showed he enrolled as a Muslim, the religion of his stepfather. The document required that each student choose one of five state-sanctioned religions when registering – Muslim, Hindu, Buddhist, Catholic or Protestant.
Asked about this, Obama communications director Robert Gibbs responded by indicating to Pickler that
he wasn’t sure why the document had Obama listed as a Muslim. “Senator Obama has never been a Muslim.”
Two months later, Paul Watson of the Los Angeles Times (available online in a Baltimore Sun reprint) reported that the Obama campaign had retreated from that absolute statement and instead issued a more nuanced one: “Obama has never been a practicing Muslim.” The Times looked into the matter further and learned more about his Indonesian interlude:
His former Roman Catholic and Muslim teachers, along with two people who were identified by Obama’s grade-school teacher as childhood friends, say Obama was registered by his family as a Muslim at both schools he attended. That registration meant that during the third and fourth grades, Obama learned about Islam for two hours each week in religion class.
The childhood friends say Obama sometimes went to Friday prayers at the local mosque. “We prayed but not really seriously, just following actions done by older people in the mosque. But as kids, we loved to meet our friends and went to the mosque together and played,” said Zulfin Adi. … Obama’s younger sister, Maya Soetoro, said in a statement released by the campaign that the family attended the mosque only “for big communal events,” not every Friday.
Recalling Obama’s time in Indonesia, the Times account contains quotes that Obama “went to the mosque,” and that he “was Muslim.”
Summarized, available evidence suggests Obama was born a Muslim to a non-practicing Muslim father and for some years had a reasonably Muslim upbringing under the auspices of his Indonesian step-father. At some point, he converted to Christianity. It appears false to state, as Obama does, “I’ve always been a Christian” and “I’ve never practiced Islam.” The campaign appears to be either ignorant or fabricating when it states that “Obama never prayed in a mosque.”-Daniel Pipes
OBAMA WAS BORN MUSLIM AND PRAYED TO MECCA AS A BOY
