Majority of Republicans: Obama is a Muslim

A new national Louis Harris poll finds that a majority of Republicans believe that President Obama is a Muslim, while 45 percent agree with the so-called "Birthers" that the president was "not born in the United States."

The poll of 2,230 Americans, taken during last weekend's health care showdown in the House of Representatives, shows how successful Obama's opponents have been in demonizing the 44th president.

Full results are expected tomorrow, but preliminary findings were released in The Daily Beast by John Avlon, whose book "Wingnuts" details the hyper-partisanship that has swept America since 2008.

According to the poll, 57 percent of Republicans, and 32 percent of Americans overall, believe that Barack Obama is a Muslim. The opinion comes despite Obama's description in his bestseller, "The Audacity of Hope", of his adoption of the Christian faith.

The poll found that 45 percent of Republicans, and 25 percent in the overall survey, agree with Birthers that Obama was "not born in the United States and so is not eligible to be president."

I don’t think so. Muslims worship Allah. Barack Obama worships...himself.

I agree. I think his real birth certificate would show that Frank Marshall Davis is his real father. I read this on another website long ago and they had a picture of Davis next to an Obama picture and it does look like a resemblance.

Every time I see that New Yorker cover, I wonder what they knew. They aren't a conservative crowd but that certainly makes a clear statement that they objected to Obama.

Or was it just a spoof?

No kidding. I am just siding with The New Yorker, a liberal propaganda rag.

Why has Obama not released his long-form birth certificate? ...Americans should not have to guess what is printed on their president's birth certificate.

Obama thinks he's bigger than The Beatles.

The Beatles claimed to be bigger than Jesus (it wasn't just a "popularity" statement, John really believed it - "We're more popular than Jesus now; I don't know which will go first — rock and roll or Christianity. Jesus was all right, but his disciples were thick and ordinary. It's them twisting it that ruins it for me.").

Therefore Obama > Beatles > Jesus. Obama thinks he's bigger than Jesus.

Here are the Beatles' birth certificates. Read 'em and weap, Obama.

“Barack Obama received at least some instruction in the Islamic faith of his father and went with him to the mosque, but the importance of this experience is vastly overstated by conservative commentators who seek to portray Obama as a Muslim of sorts. Radical anti-Americanism, rather than Islam, was the reigning faith in the Dunham household. ...

Barack Obama is a clever fellow who imbibed hatred of America with his mother’s milk, but worked his way up the elite ladder of education and career. He shares the resentment of Muslims against the encroachment of American culture, although not their religion. He has the empathetic skill set of an anthropologist who lives with his subjects, learns their language, and elicits their hopes and fears while remaining at emotional distance. That is, he is the political equivalent of a sociopath. The difference is that he is practicing not on a primitive tribe but on the population of the United States.

There is nothing mysterious about Obama’s methods. “A demagogue tries to sound as stupid as his audience so that they will think they are as clever as he is,” wrote Karl Krauss. Americans are the world’s biggest suckers, and laugh at this weakness in their popular culture. Listening to Obama speak, Sinclair Lewis’ cynical tent-revivalist Elmer Gantry comes to mind, or, even better, Tyrone Power’s portrayal of a carnival mentalist in the 1947 film noire Nightmare Alley. The latter is available for instant viewing at Netflix, and highly recommended as an antidote to having felt uplifted by an Obama speech. ...”

There is a great little page size template someone has used to paint on the sidewalks in downtown San Francisco in red letters:

KNOW OBAMA

READ MARX

As I understand it he was “born” a muslim because his father was a muslim and Obama has not renounced the faith. If he were to do so he’d be marked for death. Now, girls born to muslim father are not automatically muslim. No child is automatically a muslim if the mother is muslim and the father is not.

And you’ll notice he had a perfect chance to renounce Islam in his interview with Stephenopoulas (sp). Instead he let George do it for him.

Someone correct me if I’m wrong.

I don’t buy the dog stuff. Has anyone seen the dog since the photo op? And remember, lieing to infidels is approved in Islam.

Obama is a Black Liberation commie "intellectual" who sympathizes with the radical Muslims, just like Bill Ayers and many others around him.

Unholy Alliance: Radical Islam and the American Left
by David Horowitz

Amazon Book Review:
"Vastly Illuminating!" September 25, 2004
By Kat Bakhu

"I had long wondered why people on the Left had the propensity to speak more positively about people who would slit their throats than they do about their own country, which affords them more freedom and opportunity than anywhere else. David Horowitz has answered that question thoroughly and convincingly in his Unholy Alliance. Where I felt bewildered and confused, I now feel crystal clear. Unholy Alliance is such a great book.

It begins with the leftist movements at the beginning of the 20th Century, and works its way up to the present day, exploring the anti-American attitude of these movements in detail. Horowitz shows that the enemies of the US back then are largely the same group today, operating under the same misperceptions, making the same mistakes, and pursuing the same impossible utopia.

Individual chapters are included on the Patriot Act (I was persuaded that it is a GOOD thing); the democratic flip-flop on Iraq once G.W. Bush implemented what they agreed with Clinton needed to be done; the driving components of the current anti-war movement; as well as chapters on individual personalities who are major spokespeople of the Left. Horowitz covers a lot of ground, and he covers it concisely and clearly. Unholy Alliance is richly informative without ever being boring or plodding.

This book is so illuminating that I simply cannot do justice to it here. I love people who reason so clearly that they help me get my own reasoning clear. Horowitz is just that type of person! In the terrain of mindless clichés (no-blood-for-oil, etc.), he is a breath of real fresh air."

The opinion comes despite Obama's description in his bestseller, "The Audacity of Hope", of his adoption of the Christian faith.

“Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves. By their fruit you will recognize them. Do people pick grapes from thornbushes, or figs from thistles? Likewise every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit. Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. Thus, by their fruit you will recognize them. “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. Many will say to me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and in your name drive out demons and perform many miracles?’ Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!’

They aren't a conservative crowd but that certainly makes a clear statement that they objected to Obama.

Or maybe they were proud of his heritage and decided to show that side of him. :-)

I’m just amazed that 25% of the country believes Obama wasn’t born here. Up until now I was under the impression that the birthers were a tiny segment of the population. How interesting that there are so many. I’m still up in the air about it myself.

I’d just like to know why he doesn’t release the certificate once and for all. Is he waiting until the next election when he’ll pull it out to make the republicans look stupid for doubting? Or does he really just not have one?

I don’t think Obama is a Muslim; I believe he is a beady eyed heathen.

I think that's a much better assessment...

As Obama Sr. abandoned his son to his commie maternal family, so Obama Jr. abandons the citizens of this country.
