CNSNews.com) -- Eighty percent of Muslim Americans approve of the way Barack Obama is handling his job as president, according to a newly released survey conducted by the Abu Dhabi Gallup Center, a partnership between Gallup and the Crown Prince Court of Abu Dhabi.

According to the survey, 65 percent of Jewish Americans approve of the job Obama is doing; 60 percent of atheists, agnostics, and those of no religion approve; 50 percent of Catholics approve; 37 percent of Protestants approve and 25 percent of Mormons approve.

Although published this month, the survey of Muslim Americans was actually completed on April 9. (In Gallup’s overall polling in the week that ended April 10, Obama’s approval was at 45 percent, slightly higher than the 42 percent it hit last week.)

How do they determine if someone is muslim before they poll them? Do they get the local mosque directory? I don’t remember being asked my religion when I registered to vote.

“I wonder why?”

Forrest Gump had the answer (paraphrased):
“Muslim is as Muslim does”.

American Muslims see this clearly.
Hence, their response.

Just sayin’....

The term "Muslim American" is an oxymoron. By definition, a Muslim's loyalty is exclusively to Allah and Islam. Their is no room for loyalty to a nation such as the United States.

Can terrorists take part in polls? I would imagine so since the intel we got from water boarding showed their black book of secrets on how hey blend in, in America.

i wish all Americans would read you and Cheetahcat !

they simply don’t understand, Islam is fundamentally seditious. Yes, Christians put Jesus first.
But his kingdom is in Heaven, and he said “render under Caeser”.
Islam specifically forbids Muslims to accept a non-Islamic government.
they are allowed to live there, in the “House of War”. but, they are forbidden to be loyal to it. Just as they are specifically forbidden in the Quran, to even be friends with unbelievers...
(so all the posters who start with “my Muslim friend”, either they are being lied to, or the Muslim is violating his own religion.)
