Comments and questions have poured forth after a woman was removed, said to be in a burqa, from President Obama campaign rally on Saturday.
Isti Arief , a PhD student at Virginia Commonwealth University, told CBS 6 she was elated to see another Muslim woman sitting a few rows in front of her at President Obamas re-election rally on Saturday.
However, Arief says when she looked much closer , she knew something was wrong, starting with the womans burqa.
It looked like more of a makeshift one. It wasnt even an official one said Arief.
Arief goes on to say because the woman completely covered her face and the not the rest of her body, the situation grew more perplexing.
A regular Muslim would know that no one would cover their face, wearing short sleeve, with a tattoo, and capri pants. Theres just something not right about that, says Arief.
Arief told CBS 6, this woman was just a few yards away from the President, and secret service agents ordered the woman to uncover her face in order to stay in the rally. Arief said when the woman didnt , she was escorted out of the building.

A tattoo? Good grief.
Did she "faint" as well?

Koran?
Any other President ever use anything other than the Presidential Seal?
Anybody else reminded of a high school campaign when you see pictures like this... no tie, no coat, no class...did he even shave??
Is he running for President or Prom Quee...er, King?
Liberals do not want liberty for anyone. They would rather dictate what we do, what we buy, where we go and when, and what we can do while there. Please donate. The Republic you save may be your own. |
Considering the early reports the burka/scarf had a military insignia, I wonder if it was someone who had an injury to her face such as burns or something like that?
OK, never mind about my last comment. I didn’t read this one yet. Sounds like she was just nuts.
Yeah, she looks like a Black Muslim to me rather than the standard variety.
