What I find curious is Barry's ability to absolutly dodge his 'muslim' background during the elections.

Now its front and center.

A curious thing this media is.

Absolutely right Steamwake........they certainly down played it, but now he thinks he's going to use it as an advantage.......The "Man" is trying to charm the world. Unfortunately not everyone wants to be charmed. All they want to do is rid the world of "Infidels".

Do we really need to relaunch the conspiracy theory of Obama being a covered Muhammedan just to give him a bad name?

No, we need not.

What he had to say on religion in this famous speech (I urge you to read it in full, it is brilliant even in the few details where I tend to disagree), cannot be said by somebody whose thinking represents Quranic ideology, or orthodox, sectarian Christian cults. It is healthy reason and pragmatism. In a truly Islamic society, he would have risked to get killed for it (and in a couple of extremist Christian circles probably too).

Americans are looking, Obama said, for a "deeper, fuller conversation about religion in this country." He started that conversation. A few others are joining in. It's time for everyone else to catch up.

Considering he impressed the Muslims interviewed after the speech with his knowledge of the Quran.... Maybe!

Remember, this is from a guy who has trouble remembering how many states we have in this country. A 2nd grader could correct him.

The Messiah for you [DUMB-a-crats] dude[s] that voted him in.

Look to your God for the answers - another useless Captain Densell.

He has answers for everything except for running out of money.

Another boat anchor -useless.

Considering the gaffs Bush made, I think he has quite a few to go before coming CLOSE to being compared to him.
