WASHINGTON — US President Barack Obama on Wednesday offered best wishes to Muslims in the United States and around the world as they observe the holy fasting month of Ramadan.

"All of us must remember that the world we want to build -- and the changes that we want to make -- must begin in our own hearts, and our own communities," Obama said in a statement released by the White House.

The US president said he looked forward to hosting a White House Iftar dinner, the meal that breaks the daily fast.

I have a few ramadan wishes of my own, but I'd get booted off the forum for saying most of 'em.

[ilovesarah2012]

And I have ramadan wishes for Obama but expressing them would get me booted off, so I’ll just leave it at

FUBO

Will be interesting to observe Obama’s activities over the next month ...

Well, isn’t that special?

I’m sure the Precedent will be wishing the American people “a joyous Winter Holiday” this December 25th.

To be expected, since W hosted a ramalamadingdong dinner at the White House in ‘09. This will be much bigger and better, of course.

Ramadan Wishes and Conqueror Dreams.

Happy go hungry till sun down madness, and death to America.

[dfwgator]

Is he doing anything here that President Bush didn’t do?

[notaliberal]

We Americans have nothing in common with muslims, Mr. President, and pray tell what contributions have muslims made to this country besides trying to destroy it.

[dainbramaged]

Oops - not ‘09.

I would wish they would come out of the darkness that is Islam and come into the light that is the gospel of Jesus Christ.

This is my considered opinion. My kneejerk reaction wasn't so kind. However, this is the only real answer to the spiritual and cultural cancer that is Islam.

[pissant]

Yes.

[a fool in paradise]

The man who can’t celebrate Christmas, honor the national day of prayer, or reveal when and where he was ever baptised yet professes to be a Christian with no muslim heritage.

Barry even has an outfit for the occasion!

[dfwgator]

In honor of Ramadan I will be roasting a pig in our backyard.

“All of us must remember that the world we want to build — and the changes that we want to make...”

The world that WE want to build. Is he talking about building a world under sharia?

[rbosque]

Roast pork for everyone!
