In a statement released Sunday evening to mark the start of the Muslim holy month of Ramadan, President Obama pledged his commitment to “safeguarding the civil rights of all Americans no matter their religion or appearance.”
Without mentioning presumptive GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump by name, Obama highlighted America’s “Muslim communities [that are] as diverse as our nation itself.” “I stand firmly with Muslim American communities in rejection of the voices that seek to divide us or limit our religious freedoms or civil rights. I stand committed to I stand in celebration of our common humanity and dedication to peace and justice for all,” Obama said.
Trump has proposed banning Muslims from entering America and he again raised eyebrows Sunday when he said it’s “absolutely" possible he’d be treated unfairly by a Muslim judge.
During an appearance on CBS’s “Face the Nation,” Trump said U.S. District Court Judge Gonzalo Curiel’s has treated him in a “hostile manner” and pointed to the judge’s Mexican heritage.
When asked if he feels that he’d be treated unfairly by a Muslim judge because of his call to temporarily ban Muslim from entering the United States, Trump said, “It’s possible.”
“That would be possible, absolutely,” he said.
In his Ramadan statement, Obama noted that “millions of lives that have been displaced by conflict and struggle, across the world and in our own backyards” and said America “must continue working together to alleviate the suffering of these individuals.
“This sacred time reminds us of our common obligations to uphold the dignity of every human being. We will continue to welcome immigrants and refugees into our nation, including those who are Muslim.”
His allegiance is clear.
>>This sacred time reminds us of our common obligations to uphold the dignity of every human being.<<
Great, send them K rations. I mean real ones before they were called MREs.
Do NOT let them come here!

Get your damned “prayer rug” ready and learn your new posture...how to bow way, way down (while sticking your ass up high in the air)
Was the President truthful about Muslim history?

Joe Biden’s “brother from another mother”.
Air drop them pallets of canned hams. From 5,000 feet. Without parachutes.
peace and justice for all
The peace of submission to Islam, the justice of Sharia. Everything in Islam is inside out to reason.
Or turkeys
Has he ever made such a commitment to Christians??
Blood will be on obama’s hands and lots of it.
We’re not having enough trouble with third-worlders who snuck into the country, so we’re inviting in even more trouble.
I don’t think so. The middle east Muslim refugees admitted so far outnumber Christian refugees about 3 or 4 hundred to one.
Yep, and bambam is reveling in it.
A lie. Although practically everything he says is a lie. But other communities in our nation do not harbor and shelter terrorists, kill apostates, etc.
FUBO!!!!
