President Obama continued his outreach to the world's Muslims today, sending greetings to pilgrims to Mecca.

....

"Michelle and I would like to send our best wishes to all those performing Hajj this year, and to Muslims in America and around the world who are celebrating Eid-ul-Adha. The rituals of Hajj and Eid-ul-Adha both serve as reminders of the shared Abrahamic roots of three of the world’s major religions," Obama said in a statement.

"During Hajj, the world’s largest and most diverse gathering, three million Muslims from all walks of life – including thousands of American Muslims – will stand in prayer on Mount Arafat. The following day, Muslims around the world will celebrate Eid-ul-Adha and distribute food to the less fortunate to commemorate Abraham’s willingness to sacrifice his son out of obedience to God," the president added in the statement, translated on the White House website into Arabic, Persian, Dari, Urdu, Pashto, Russian, and French.

....

"On behalf of the American people, we would like to extend our greetings during this Hajj season – Eid Mubarak."

Remember that he forced the Chief Justice Roberts to swear him in as PRESIDENT the second time in the White House with NO BIBLE!!!!ostensibly because they “COULD NOT FIND A BIBLE IN THE WHOLE WHITE HOUSE!!” That was BULLSH*T!! Barry Soetoro wanted his fellow MUSLIM TERRORISTS to see and note that HE WAS NOT SWORN IN ON THE INFIDEL’S HEATHEN BIBLE!! If Barry was truly worried that his first swearing in was Invalid, he and his Thugs would have moved Heaven and Earth to get that LINCOLN BIBLE there for the second swearing-in as well!! He didn’t have any problem forcing the Chief Justice to show up at his BECK and Call! A CHRISTIAN, like George W., would have had the BIBLE THERE!!! No Questions ASKED!! Barry Soetoro is clearly A MUSLIM!! 1000% SURE!
Ask him to recite the LORDS PRAYER? like TIME Magazine states he recited the MUSLIM EVENING PRAYER IN PERFECT ARABIC TONGUE!! He is taking AMERICA for a Nation of FOOLS..

Maybe Christians need a city that Muslims are prohibited from entering.

There will be one such city. For sure.

ROFLOL!!!!

Indeed yes, to the liberals.

I would like to extend my greetings to Mecca as well - but it is ballistically impossible from my current proximal range.

No need to bring his family into this. Michelle is a decent woman (although her ass is axe-handle wide)

In the mean time, Obama’s loyal Military Cronies charged three Navy SEALs with assault for hitting a poor widdle Muslim TERRORIST in the mouth. Looks like Obama picked his side and it is not our side. It will be a great day when these domestic enemies are driven out of DC.

U.S. presidents have been issuing that haj greetings for decades, so it barely qualifies as news.

Gotta agree with you. He had a Rosh Hashana message too... everyone miss that? How about we deal with his abject marxism instead of slogging after this bait?

Unknot yer panties folks, deal with the real crap coming down the pipeline.

Yeah, let's celebrate the "religion of peace" that attacked us on 9-11-01 and killed more than 3,000 people.

This asshole in the White House just makes me want to vomit. I can't wait for him to go....

Everyone else is thinking about this kind of pilgrim:

"yes not 10 years after 9/11 there is a man who has bent over backwards for muslims"

and forwards

"Okay, folks. This guy has got to go."

"Eleanor and I would like to send our best wishes to all those performing Hatsumode this year, and to adherents to Shintoism in America in temporary relocation camps and around the world who are celebrating Shin Nen. The rituals of Hatsumode and Shuudan Sanpai both serve as reminders of the shared Shintoist roots of the world’s other major religions," Roosevelt said in a statement. "During Hatsumode, Japan's largest and most exciting gathering, millions of believers in State Shintoism from all walks of life – including thousands of Japanese Americans – will stand in New Years prayer as they summon the Shinto Gods with ritualistic clapping and bowing. The following day, Shintoists around the the Pacific and in occupied lands will celebrate Shin Nen festivities further, performing omochitsuki, and writing on wooden emma horses their desires, as well as tying omikuji to tree branches for good luck and in obedience to Ameterasu Oomikami and other important Shinto Gods" the president added in the statement, translated on the White House and read on the Blue and Red Networks in Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Taiwanese, Burmese, Thai, Vietnames, Tagalog, Malay, Bahasa Indonesian, as well as Tohoku, Kansai, Kumamoto and Okinawan dialects of Japanese."

I’m afraid, a, that this sort of comment which, as they say up here, would gag a maggot on a fence post a half mile away, has become part of the standard vocabulary of the presidency since Bush instituted greetings to and praise of Islam on Eid after 9/11.
