Obama Reaches Out to the Muslim World (Obama reaches out to his own kind)

I ran into Shaykh Hamza Yusuf, one of American's Islam's foremost scholars, at the Presidential Prayer Service on Wednesday. His first words to me were, "This President is reaching out to us. It's good for the Muslim world to hear that."

Go ahead and reach out your hand to rabid dogs, 0. Just please make sure you do it in person.

The problem is the religious nut cases are terrorist for the most part.
Mr Obama may wish to reach out to Muslims who hate us.
He may want to shoot hoops with them.
IMO he better be careful because most of the Muslims he's wishing to reach would probably love to cut off a head to use for the game of hoops.

No matter who the President is we wish them safety.
I don't think this reaching out is good for Mr Obama or any of us in the area of national security.

A sure sign of weakness that terrorists will use to their advantage. We’re gonna get hit again.

There's a euphemism I'm good & sick of hearing - "reaching out".

We used to call it genuflecting.

FRiends, be prepared for a lot of dead Americans by the end of the year. It is coming, just be prepared for the loss of a number of fellow citizens.

I find it interesting to say the least, that Obama found it a good idea to reach out to a group with a 1.5% representation in the United States, over the objections of 47% of our populace.

It is freaking ridiculous what power miniscule fractions of our populace hold.

By all means, contact the heads of terrorist organizations if you must. Contact them first if you must. Make agreements with them if you must. Suffer the ravages of those failed agreements if you must.

Just don’t get upset, when we boot your ass in four years, because we must.

1. Let the man walk around in Beirut with his hand out to the Muslims.
2. Maintain the policy of not paying ransom.

I doubt it. He is one of them

“Mark my words,” Biden said, “it will not be six months before the world tests Barack Obama like they did John Kennedy.”

[bergmeid]

They aren’t buying it.

He is reaching out to the enemy, but today he basically told a few Republicans who wanted tax cuts rather than rebates, “I won”. In other words, too bad, so sad. Not much reaching out across the aise, I’d say.

He is a two-bit punk...an arrogant thug.

Biden said

He also said Obama had a spine of steel or something like that. From what I've seen so far, his 'spine of steel' is more likely a 'spine of pot metal'.

[beethovenfan]

Is he going to build a minaret at the “White” House? Will Washingtonians be hearing the call to prayer 5 times a day?

[We Dare Defend Our Rights]

Reaching out for one of his own.

Oh, I'm sure plans to change that ratio are already in the works.

[DoughtyOne]

Now there’s a great thought to contemplate this weekend. LOL

I’m sure you’re on the right track there.

Obama Hussein is their man. He has been groomed for this job for over 40 years. Hussein can do us more damage alive than he can dead. Or are you one of those in denial that he is muslim? Muslim dad. Muslim step dad. Do you reckon his mom was a christian? Formidable years in a muslim school. Need I say more?
