At Baltimore mosque, President Obama encourages U.S. Muslims: “You fit in here”

By Michelle Boorstein February 3 at 2:50 PM

President Obama Wednesday delivered the comforting sermon to U.S. Muslims that their community leaders have been requesting for years, framing Islam as deeply American and its critics as violating the nation’s cherished value of religious freedom. Obama’s comments came in his first visit as president to a U.S. mosque.

The historic 45-minute speech at a large, suburban Baltimore mosque was attended by some of the country’s most prominent Muslims. In what appeared to be a counter to the rise in Islamophobia, Obama celebrated the long history of Muslim achievement in American life from sports to architecture and described Muslims as Cub Scouts, soldiers and parents, pointing out the mother of the premed college student who introduced him at the podium.

Did Obama bring up clock makers for praise?

Praise Allah, the homemade clock looks remarkably like a home made bomb. A triumph of Islamic engineering, indeed.

You fit in here. Right here.

I hope he's correct. It does simplify the targeting solution, doesn't it?

They don’t want to fit in with us. They want us to fit in with them, or they will kill us.

Seriously?! I guess I shouldn’t be surprised at anything Oblah-blah says but—there were practically no Muzzies in the US before 1901...Oh, wait..that’s right... Zero’s talking about his country. That’s either Kenya or Indonesia.

We will have to exterminate all muslims eventually.

There is no living with them. They are like cockroaches. They spread death and destruction wherever they gather.

How do people that follow a death cult that seeks to destroy “western society” “fit in” in America.

They do not. However, Obama, Ryan, McCain and others want more of them to come here even though they pose a threat to us and contribute nothing. Why?

Never has there been, in our government, so many individuals who belong to a religion that you either join or you will be killed!!

When you read this you will understand why Obama refuses to say the words “radical Islam.”

( I didn’t originate this, but it checked out. It has been around for a long time and I for one will keep on sending it until I see some evidence that the “folks” are finally catching on! How can anyone ignore this information and not be even slightly suspicious of the events for the last 7+ years! I don’t know about you but I am scared to death. Don’t you find it odd that mere hours before the massacre in Paris, Obama declared that ISIS had been “contained”. Seriously? The man is seriously delusional! )

Did you know that we now have a Muslim government?

John Brennan, current head of the CIA converted to Islam while stationed in Saudi Arabia .

Obama’s top advisor, Valerie Jarrett, is a Muslim who was born in Iran where her parents still live.

Hillary Clinton’s top advisor, Huma Abedin is a Muslim, whose mother and brother are involved in the now outlawed Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt .

Assistant Secretary for Policy Development for Homeland Security, Arif Aikhan, is a Muslim.

Homeland Security Advisor, Mohammed Elibiary, is a Muslim.

Obama advisor and founder of the Muslim Public Affairs Council, Salam al-Marayati, is a Muslim.

Obama’s Sharia Czar, Imam Mohamed Magid, of the Islamic Society of North America is a Muslim.

Advisory Council on Faith-Based Neighborhood Partnerships, Eboo Patel, is a Muslim.

It’s questionable if Obama ever officially took the oath of office when he was sworn in. He didn’t repeat the oath properly to defend our nation and our Constitution. Later the Democrats claimed he was given the oath again in private?

CIA director John Brennan took his oath on a copy of the Constitution, not a Bible.

Congressman, Keith Ellison took his oath on a copy of the Qur’an.

Congresswoman Michele Bachman was vilified and almost tarred and feathered by Democrats when she voiced her concern about Muslims taking over our government.

Considering all these appointments, it would explain why Obama and his minions are systematically destroying our nation, supporting radical Muslim groups worldwide, opening our southern border, and turning a blind eye to the genocide being perpetrated on Christians all over Africa and the Middle East.

The more damage Obama does, the more arrogant he becomes!

Our nation and our government have been infiltrated by people who want to destroy us. It can only get worse!
