Is Barack Obama a Muslim?

By Ben Shapiro

Is Barack Hussein Obama a Muslim? No.

But there’s a reason 24 percent of Americans believe President Obama is a Muslim: Obama spends an inordinate amount of time stumping for Islam. Obama’s not Muslim. But he proselytizes for Islamic goals and dreams like a member of the faithful.

He routinely cites his background to establish his Islamic bona fides with the Muslim world. “I am a Christian, but my father came from a Kenyan family that includes generations of Muslims,” he told a Muslim audience in Cairo. “As a boy, I spent several years in Indonesia and heard the call of the azaan at the break of dawn and the fall of dusk. ... I have known Islam on three continents before coming to the region where it was first revealed.” This is language that falls short of embracing Islam as a believer, but is geared toward telling the Muslim world, “I am on your side.”

The article continues if you'd like to finish it. Mr. Shapiro is a good writer.

I just wanted to make the point that some smart people are saying that obuma isn't a muslim, he just pretends to be one when he's trying to brown nose the muslims. When he wants to impress Christians he points to his 20 years of sitting in the Reverend Wright's congregation, although that doesn't seem to impress anyone now. Hitched his wagon to the wrong star I guess.

He doesn't brag about attending any Temples, so I guess he really does hate Jews, or doesn't think they're worth impressing. Same for the Buddhists - you'll recall that when the Dalai Lama visited the White House a while back, he was shown out the back door past the garbage cans.

I don't think obuma is any religion, what he is, is a chameleon. I keep forgetting that many of my readers are probably American college graduates. You can go find out what a chameleon is while the rest of us wait right here and gossip about you.   

Okay, now we all know that a chameleon is an ugly, cold-blooded lizard that can change its appearance to match its surroundings. Sound like anyone we know? I swear, if felons hadn't lost the right to vote, he would have made a campaign appearance at Folsom Prison to tell the brothers about the time he was in for 20 to life.

I wonder what he tells the gay and lesbian convention?
