How about the fact that Obama is a far left radical — dare I say — MARXIST?

Is the Post investigating that?

The DNC house organ cannot throw Jews in total under the bus. They get touchy about such generalizations after the centuries long mistreatment that culminated in the Holocaust of the 20th century.

I just wondered if you had read the “hit piece” in Washington Post on Freepers, and supposedly “taking them down regarding Obama”...I saw you were on another thread so hoped you saw this.

Ramesh Ponnuru at NRO's The Corner sez Danielle used to be a conservative

Danielle Allen [Ramesh Ponnuru]

I have not followed her career, although I hear that her books are excellent. I knew her slightly in college. She was razor-sharp, and conservative. She interned at NR.

Thanks for the background info. It’s amazing how the “press” can oppose freedom of speech.

It's very easy to turn a child into a Muslim--all they have to do is say the magic words. If Obama's stepfather took him to Mosque in Indonesia, it is highly likely that Obama was pressured into saying the magic words.

Senator Obama recited the shahada to the New York Times in 2007:

Mr. Obama recalled the opening lines of the Arabic call to prayer, reciting them with a first-rate accent. In a remark that seemed delightfully uncalculated (it’ll give Alabama voters heart attacks), Mr. Obama described the call to prayer as “one of the prettiest sounds on Earth at sunset.”

(From Nicholas Kristof's column Obama: Man of the World in the New York Times of March 6th, 2007.)

The call to prayer, the adhan, begins with the shahada, the Islamic creed. As you mention, a single sincere recitation of the shahada is all that is required to be a professing Muslim.

Doesn’t the mainstream media routinely spread rumors anonymously via quotes from unnamed sources and unsigned editorials?

Freepers who post details about their private lives online leave tidbits of information an investigator can piece together to figure out who you are.

...scheme hatched by the Obama campaign to 1) distract attention from what sort of a “Christian” he’s REALLY been all these years, and 2) make conservatives look like idiots for swallowing silly rumors and latching onto ultra-skimpy “evidence” of Obama’s alleged Muslim identity.
___________________________________________________________
Agreed. It is fair to say, without too much rumor mongering, that the new accounts of many of the folks that have been the worst “offenders” in unsubtantiated rumors who certainly seem to suggest an organized political effort to discredit forums like this one.

These operatives had best be careful. The internet has a way of dragging the truth out.

If the more ridiculous of these rumors turn out to have Obama campaign worker origins, it is quite likely that this will be exposed.

Yes they do. But when they do it, it's called news and we must believe it's true.

Yes. At least here everyone can see actual sources. The leftist MSM are just jealous because we have more credibility than them. LOL.

I won’t bow my head and pray to either one of them so the question holds absolutely no significance with me.

A legislator explained to me last week why Obama would win the upcoming election, because he is the better looking one of the two. He went back through all the elections and explained that this has held true since Ike was selected for the White House.

One would think they would have waited to get into the White House, before trying to revoke the First Amendment right to free speech.

(Dr. Jack Wheeler at To the Point News lays it out for us and outlines a brilliant strategy for Obama, a Moslem in his youth with strong ties to Islam and that region.)

(scroll way down to Personal life)

1. His birth father was Muslim. In Islam, all children of Muslim fathers are Muslim.
2. His stepfather was a Muslim and he attended a Muslim school for four years.
3. The racist statements of his so called Christian Church pastor and wife do not follow the major tenents of the Bible. He admitted he became a Christian for political purposes in one of his debates with Hillary Clinton. Mrs. Obama’s thesis at Princeton was anti-white.
4. He campaigned in Kenya for Raila Odinga (google: Raila Obama) and they claim to be cousins (google: Raila Obama cousins)
5. Raila had an agreement with Muslims, The MOU agreement, that if he was elected, Islam would become the only recognized religion in Kenya.
6. From 2003-2005 the Muslims tried to change Kenya's Constitution to install 'sharia law'
7. Within a few minutes after the elections closed, cries of “rigged” came from Odinga’s camp and the burning and killing began against those who did not support him. Railia supporters had stated repeatedly that if he was not elected, “No Railia, No Kenya”. So many Christian churches were burned down. Not one mosque was touched. The full death count has not been released and at least 350,000 people were run off their land and their homes and properties stolen.
8. American Democrat Dick Morris volunteered to be the chief stradegist for Raila Odinga (google: Raila Dick Morris) Why?
9. Islamic backers of Obama include Farakan, Hamas, the Palestinians, (google: backers of Obama). Why?
10. Interview of Raila on BBC saying he and Obama talk regularly and are cousins.

Connect the dots if you can...........Obama may have been in a Muslim family early on, whether he practiced that religion before he found Jeremiah Wright’s church is unclear - what is clear is the Barack Hussein Obama is pure Socialist with heavy Marxist leanings. He is not an American by thought or culture. He is also, one slick politician - they are all alike regardless of country or type of government. He does not love this country; he doesn't even know how many states it has; he does not begin to understand the free market/capitalist economy nor the desire to see America remain strong in all aspects. Obama is as much a figment of the MSM/pundits imagination as are/was Ms. Clinton and her trashy spouse.

"We will not be swift-boated," said Obama communications director Robert Gibbs. "And we won't take allegations that are patently untrue lying down."

With an attitude like that, Robert Gibbs will definitely bankrupt the people who are funding the socialist Obama's run for the White House.
