Hosting Muslim officials and business leaders at a State Dining Room dinner, Obama said, "Throughout our history, Islam has contributed to the character of our country, and Muslim Americans, and their good works, have helped to build our nation — and we've seen the results. We've seen those results in generations of Muslim immigrants — farmers and factory workers, helping to lay the railroads and build our cities. Muslim innovators who helped build some of our highest skyscrapers and who helped to unlock the secrets of our universe."

Better check you facts; most of those great muslim advances you mentioned originated in India and China.
Koranimals are very good at stealing sciences from other cultures.
And then they promptly shut down all further sciences in the conquered. If it's not in the queeran, it is of no use.

Pres__ent Nutcase addresses Muslim nation .. Thanks them for their years of contributing to the stew we are in, sharia law and honor killings. Promises and looks to even more ‘citizenship’ in the future.

[man_in_tx]

Muslim innovators who helped build some of our highest skyscrapers and who helped to unlock the secrets of our universe.

That is just too much. We should be calling on Congress for an Article 25 on this insulting, crazy comment.

[MasterGunner01]

When did this happen? We didn't have very many Muslims until the U.S. government started importing them for some “humanitarian” reasons. Stupid is as stupid does.

[little jeremiah]

The freak is a traitor bastard and sides with his Mozlem buddies 100%.

The fact that Rs and LEO have not dragged him out of the WH is a stain on our country.

Rewriting history

How come Neil Armstrong didn’t mention that Muslims had already been to the moon, thats why it was so barren....?

Thanks ColdOne.

"Throughout our history, Islam has contributed to the character of our country, and Muslim Americans, and their good works, have helped to build our nation -- and we've seen the results.

So, how did he come to believe or at least pretend to believe such obvious bullshit?

"Pot had helped, and booze; maybe a little blow when you could afford it... You might just be bored, or alone. Everybody was welcome into the club of disaffection. And if the high didn't solve whatever it was that was getting you down, it could at least help you laugh at the world's ongoing folly and see through all the hypocrisy and bullshit and cheap moralism."

What's his FR nick?

No Arabs didn’t but Hindus in India did:

India’s heritage of solving problems is often overshadowed by centuries of colonialism and conquest [Outside Delhi I visited one of the oldest monuments to that history. . . pillar of iron alloy, smelted by Indian metallurgists with such skill that it has remained rustless for 1,500 years. (Photograph on page 533.)

These superb technicians were brethren of Indian thinkers who originated the concepts of zero and infinity and devised the inaccurately named Arabic numeral system, giving the science of mathematics to a world drenched in superstitious ignorance.

Hmmm. It seems I have been seduced by Islamic propaganda, I have long believed they did those things. The manual ass wiping is definitely unique to them, though, at least I hope so..

Well, after he said Ho Chi Mihn was a follower of the Founding Fathers.....

Next time it will be Lenin and Marx who built the Earth (along with the rest of the Universe, in 6, not 7 days).

Now the US and Europe are developing nations

[cunning_fish]

>>>Muslim innovators<<<

Am I the one who think it sounds like “dry water”?

[cunning_fish]

>>>Now the US and Europe are developing nations<<<

The question is a vector of development.

[GeronL]

I’d say we are undeveloping
