In stunning slip on national TV, Obama refers to "my muslim faith"
Israeli Insider ^ | 9/7/08 | staff

Posted on 09/07/2008 12:32:08 PM PDT by pissant

In one of the most astonishing gaffes in American political history, in a national televised interview with ABC's George Stephanopolis, Democratic presidential candidate Barack Hussein Obama referred to "my muslim faith," confirming what so many researchers and political opponents have been claiming, and what the mainstream media has allow him to deny, until now.

While Stephanopolis several seconds later tried to correct him, saying "Christian faith," it was too late. The damage was done. Obama clearly did not mean his Christian faith, since he was admitting that "John McCain has not talked about my Muslim faith."

If he's not really a Muslim, why would he make such a gaffe? Gotcha cold, Barack!

I’ve tripped over my tongue and said stupid things before — but I CANNOT imagine saying something like that. And if I did, I know I’d catch myself, and not have to rely on some lackey in the press to help me out of the hole I’d just dug for myself.

He spent four years in the muzzie unified school district, then later joins a church that doesnt care if he is a Christian.

I think he doesnt believe in anything....or only things that will get him elected.

I saw the interview, and in all fairness, what he said could be interpreted to be, “John McCain hasn’t talked about [what he believes is] my Muslim faith.”

He could have meant that.

But...but there are some freepers here on FR on other threads saying this is not what Obama said/meant.

It is pretty darn clear what he said and what he meant = "my Muslim faith", and his attempt to cover for his alleged misspeak was very weak. Kinda like his tour of all 57 states.

Why does it take the Israeli Insider to highlight this? Where is the American press?

We shouldn’t take this out of context. I mean Obama would never take anything McCain/Palin said out of context and use it for political gain.

Someone just emailed this video to me. I had not seen it before, it may be old news to all of you.

It’s short and worth the listen.

Has anyone figured out just what he was saying. I read it twice and still don’t know.

Well, he spent twenty years in a “church” run by someone with a divinity degree in Muslim studies.

I think he was saying that McCain has not accused him of being a Muslim. Then Steffie corrects him and says “Christian” and Obama agrees. I don’t get that at all.

I’m not sure the man knows what he is saying from minute to minute. He seemed paralyzed with nervousness.

Sorry, but that's you imposing your point of view on what the man actually said. Generosity is a fine quality, but not when it falls over the line to gullibility.
