ENOUGH WITH ALL OF THIS "OBAMA IS A MOOSLIM" CRAP
Dear Paul.
That is simple to answer. He is running for President, and thus deserves very deep scrutiny. Very deep indeed. If he has shady dealings with shady people, and is a close associate with shady people, such as Muslims that are true to their faith and their commitment to jihad (read terrorism in the name of Allah), or is himself a closet Muslim, then he is not Presidential material in my book. No way! Add to that what I perceive as his massive shortcomings in experience and his totally leftist ideology, he is not my idea of a President.
Doesn't anyone here know what the tenets of Islam are, and the obligation to Jihad each Muslim has? Or else, they have denied their own faith are apostates, and could be killed for it.

I think not, or else, they are trying to kid themselves that such is not true. They need to spend time in the Koran, Haddith, and other valid documents of that faith, and stop having warm feelings for Muslims. Spent the time reading up or don't talk about it.
Dear Lisa:
The color of his skin makes no difference to me if he is qualified and sound. The question of his Muslimhood will be answered more definitively in the next months. As I said earlier, let us try not to guess about it, the answer is too important to make unwarranted assumptions and presumed innocence as many have done. If he is, he should not become President.If he isn't a Muslim he may do so, but he will not get my vote in any event, not for those reasons but because I am a conservative and not a leftist. He is about as left as one can get, so THAT is my beef! If he also turns out to be a closet Muslim so much the worse. I simply do not know whether he is or not, and I say again, neither do you, not for sure.

I would say, Mr. Moran, that you actually DON'T KNOW whether Obama is a Muslim or not at heart. Neither do I. Neither do you readers. All are working on two things: his word, and the logic or illlogic of his middle name. I dismiss the latter, as do you.
A bit of thought must go into the word of Obama, however. If he is not a Muslim, the chances of his being honest about his real religious leanings are good. In which case, it is a better situation for us.
But, if he is indeed a closet Muslim, he has the permission of Muhammad himself to lie about it to Unbelievers, meaning us, as well as to cheat, steal, and kill, for that matter, so says the Haddith. This is not a good situation for us.
Looked at from his point of view, there is no way he can convince those who believe in his Islamic leanings, that he is not a Muslim, since he can lie with impunity.
But, a very large number of Democrats believe in Obama, and totally dismiss the thought of his possible Muslim beliefs. They also dismiss his rather unsavory associations in Chicago, including many Muslims, as being irrelevant, I suppose. Just how many irrelevancies will the Democrats allow, before they dig harder for the truth? Even you, Moran, think it is just fine if Obama has affinities with Muslims.
How close an affinity is rather important, don't you think? I, for one, would not want a Muslim fellow-traveller or full-bore sympathizer in the White House. Would you?

For me it is very simple. If Obama is Muslim he should not be on his way to election. If he is radical, he is objectionable to me as well. The facts will out more clearly over the next months, if we can recognize them when they appear. No guessing, no wishing, and no intellectual excuses or other nonsense will do. If we cannot get the facts, then we should not elect him. If his voting record is very poor, that should be taken into account. His experience in taking responsibility for a major operation is virtually nonexistent. A super one such as the US Presidency is so far above his demonstrated capabilities as to be laughable.

FRIDAY NIGHT MUSINGS ABOUT NOTHING SPECIFIC
Writing about nothing is not easy, especially when you don't know nothing. I haven't ever been able to get my mind around nothing, unlike many others who can say nothing about nothing all day long, and actually make you think they do know nothing very well. They write equations that represent nothing with a nothing symbol, sort of like what was there before the Big Bang--nothing. I can't get there either! There must have been more than nothing (ex nihilo) for someone to make us out of. So I have nothing further to say about it at all--nothing.

OBAMA'S SIREN CALL BEWITCHES THE MASSES
Well, so you don't like my Carpathia analogy! He was at first benign too. A uniter, and a changer!

The villain in "Left Behind" was a politician named Nicolae Carpathia. He was the Antichrist messiah that rose overnight to great power. The only way to avoid his spell was to stay away from him completely.
Do we have an Antichrist in our midst?

The glaring point that seems to be suppressed by the sugar candy is that many, many people are firmly against Hillary (at least 42% of the entire public), which redounds to the benefit of Obama. Any port in another Clinton storm for the presidency suits them just fine.
It will be very instructive to see Sugar

Barack Obama run against any of the three top Republicans.
There is a huge difference between Irish, who are mostly of the Catholic faith, and Muslims, who are signed up to Islam. For our immigrants, the difference in these faiths is one of supporting the US, versus supporting only Islam.
I need not enumerate the tenets of Islam here that make it an anathema to our nation, but they exist now and they are deadly. For a Muslim to turn his back on these Islamic tenets is for him to be executed at the first opportunity. Thus, we have a huge potential fifth column in our country. Or are we letting ourselves be deluded as to the real threat?
"It can't happen here" is what I heard on September 10th, 2001.
