Im a Christian. But my father came from a Kenyan family that includes generations of Muslims. Pres. Barack Obama, Cairo speech, June 4, 2009
Describing in his Cairo speech today his fathers relation to Islam, Pres. Obama pulled off the rare double-fudge, simultaneously suggesting less and more than the truth of the matter. I think I know why. So lets desconstruct. Obama could have simply stated my father was a Muslim. And that would appear to be the truth. APs Jennifer Loven, largely considered an Obama fan, has straightforwardly written: his father and grandfather were Muslims.
But he chose instead to say that his father came from a Kenyan family that includes generations of Muslims. That might seem to suggest that his father had not been a Muslim himself. How do we explain this first fudge? Id say its for domestic U.S. consumption: Obamas not eager to inform American voters of the fact his father was a Muslim. Did you ever hear him state it during the campaign? Clearly hed rather not start now.
So wheres the double-fudge?

Obama double-fudges the facts about his Muslim father ping to Today show list.
Oabam, the Marxist Muslim, now thew world knows.
They played clips of this speech on an Ottawa talk radio station, and I literally got sick to my stomach. I had to turn it off.
His pandering to Muslims makes me seriously ill.
He also wants to avoid the muslim label of “apostate” for leaving the religion of his father.
His pandering speech affected me the same way. I turned my TV off this morning, too. What a puke!
It is really NOT OK (death) for a slammer to convert to another religion.
“I turned my TV off this morning, too. What a puke!”

LOL! Puke, indeed. ;)
Obama double-fudging is simply his ownership of the subjective reality of himself. He’s a Prince
The MSM’s subjective reality of the Prince in actuality is he’s The Messiah
gawd..
“He also wants to avoid the muslim label of apostate for leaving the religion of his father.”
That’s precisely the double-fudge I describe in the article.

If his father was a Muslim; he is a Muslim. He needs to step down as POTUS.
I think he’s clearly telling the muslim world that he’s a muslim himself....
Also notice that he has yet to find a church in DC. BUT WHEN HE GETS BACK FROM his "I'm a MUSLIM" trip, I bet he will FINALLY choose one.
P.S. Date in NYC or attend church with children????
"In the Muslim school, the teacher wrote to tell my mother that I made faces during Koranic studies," Obama wrote. "My mother wasn't overly concerned. 'Be respectful,' she'd say."
Obama’s dad was an east german trained communist. the guy would have been moslem in about the same way Iraqui bathists were moslem. it was a secondary matter. they were communists first.
Personally, I don’t think he’s a Muslim NOR a practicing Christian. It’s a prop, like everything with this guy.
The AP’s Jennifer Loven is THE cheerleader for Obama among the Washington press corps. The AP makes no pretense to be other than what it is, an arm of the Democrat Party.
