They’re just going to have to keep reminding me. I just can’t seem to remember that he isn’t a Muslim.

Does he pray 5 times a day & face Mecca? Is that what the WH isn’t telling us?

Maybe they can remind him that he’s supposed to be an American. Nah! Ain’t gonna happen. Those surrounding him hate America too!

This is certainly an unexpected report from the White House staff.
My belief is President 0bama is a devout practitioner of the Muslim faith.

His presidency is turning into a bad joke. Constantly needing to remind us he’s not Muslim. Constantly needing to remind us he’s born in Hawaii. Constantly needing to remind us he’s not a socialist. Constantly needing to remind us he’s not anti business....

Anyone see ampattern here?

With Obama, it isn’t what he says or the White House states; we watch what Obama does and that tells us all we need to know.

He has repeatedly lied, misrepresented himself and his intentions.

That wasn't exactly a minor verbal slip, either.
The statement rolled perfectly out of his mouth without skipping a beat.

"Burton said Americans care more about the economy and the Iraq and Afghan wars and “they are not reading a lot of news about what religion the president is.”

So why are they not fixing the economy while addressing this?

At Barack Hussein Obama's taxpayer-funded Ramadan dinner last night, not only did the alleged president give the assembled Muslims the tremendous gift of support for building the Ground Zero mosque, but he also gifted them with the multi-purpose "Presidential Seal Boxcutter" which will soon be available in the Cordoba House gift shop.

This handsome and practical souvenir is an exact replica of the one which Barack Hussein Obama uses to direct the flight destinations of Air Force One!

All of which might, of course, seem extremely insensitive of us to say...but apparently sensitivity isn't really an issue that this president, or New York's Islamic community, cares about anymore.

And he prays every day that the people will never find out the truth about him. His only faith is in government and he seeks redemption by rebuilding the US as a Marxist country.

You are exactly correct.
President 0bama could produce his valid birth certificate on live television and plainly explain his religion. He isn't behaving like a truthful person.
He instead chooses to remain shrouded in mystery. The guy is a ghost, no lifelong friends, no proof of anything. He is essentially a dangerous robot.

And Jesus wasn’t jewish. The fact they even have to address speaks volumes. The fact that a sitting president would immediately voice his support for a mosque built on the ashes of our greatest tragedy does nothing to dissuade those Americans armed with common sense.

I am not a Muslim adherent, and may the blessings of Allah be upon you.

I am a Christian that thinks the Arab states are righteous, and Israel is the great Satan Jr.

I am a loyal U. S. Citizen who thinks his nation has been wrong about everything over the last 100 years.

What a brain-trust...

A true Believer in Yahweh CANNOT refer to Islam or any of it's components as anything but deceptive. It is a religion put together by man under the influence of demonic forces.

It states that it's god, allah has no son. That is written in the dome of the mosque on top of the Temple Mount in Jerusalem. This is a total denial of Jesus/Yahshua.

The call to prayer is a call to worship the Adversary of Yahweh. The people of Yahweh are called pigs and monkeys. This is not a religion a Christian would endorse nor participate in.

Obama is NOT A CHRISTIAN.

Gimme a break. The American people may be trusting, but they are not yet imbeciles. Obama dismisses Christians for “sticking to their Bibles and guns.” He clearly loves every Muslim and Muslim leader. He in on the bandwagon of the enemies of Israel.
The March 6, 2007 New YorkTimes had long interview of Barack Obama. In it reporter Nicholas Kristof quotes Obama as saying that the Muslim call to prayer (in which one declares Allah the one and only God) is one of the sweetest sounds in the world to Obama. Obama’s elementary education was in a Muslim madrassah. He can recite the Muslim call to prayer perfectly in Arabic. In his book Obama declares that he will always take the side of Muslims. What part of this still confuses people? His lie that he is Christian?

President Obama’s religion is of little interest to me. His actions as President are. At this point, I would accept a Muslim president - if he was competent, understood the Constitution and liked America. President Obama is none of the those.

Corollaries to Obama’s childish antics:
He argues constantly that his policies have worked and on the other hand, sometimes in the same sentence, he blames Bush or Republican or both for his policies not working.
He does not say plainly what he has done. He pleads. He begs you to believe him. This is a typical sign of a lie. If I ask where were you yesterday and you say, I was at the Mall. Ok That is the end of it. However, if you say, I was at the Mall. Really I was. I promise. I was there really. Then I have my doubts. If you have to ‘sell’ rather than ‘state’ a situation then there is a problem.
This is why he is never working. He is afraid of his job. Like an irresponsible child, he runs to what makes him ‘feel good’. In this case that would be carefully chosen adoring crowds and a fawning media. When he is at work, no matter who is in the room with him, no matter what the issue at hand, he is always the least qualified person in the room. Although his arrogance covers most of this, it eats at him. Eventually he needs another dose of adulation which he uses as a balm for his fragile and frightened ego.
Furthermore, when he is missing meetings and work while on a self-imposed junket across the nation, he gives himself, subliminally, an excuse for not attending all those meetings which intimidate him so much. Essentially, he is ‘running away’ in a very real sense. So no matter what decision is made, if the outcome is negative, he can always claim, I was out of town when they did that.
Obviously, in big-boy world this strategy can never work. But Obama has the mentality of a child and does not know that. In the end, he will be yelling, Why is everyone blaming me!? I was out of town when that happened.
Obama is a child. Eventually, we are all going to pay, Republican and Democrat, for putting this inexperienced, lazy, unqualified, rookie in charge of our country.
The sooner he is gone the better, not just for America, but for the whole world.”

I am not the author of this, but it is someone here on the Free Republic, I appologize for not having this screenname. I do have a small change, there is one exception to when he is not the least qualified person in the room. That is when the subject is about Islam.

So why would a Christian need a spokesperson to tell the world he’s a Christian. A Christian would be proud to tell the world himself. Like this: “I AM A CHRISTIAN!”
