Obama Thanks Muslims For ‘Building The Very Fabric of Our Nation’

By Cheryl K. Chumley-

President Obama and his wife sent out a joint statement to Muslims in America for the Eid-al-Fitr holiday, thanking them for their contributions in “building the fabric” of the country.

The statement, as posted on the White House website, reads in part: “As Muslims throughout the United States and around the world celebrate Eid-al-Fitr, Michelle and I extend our warmest wishes to them and their families. … [The holiday] celebrates the common values that unite us in our humanity and reinforces the obligations that people of all faiths have to each other, especially those impacted by poverty, conflict and disease.”

“He’s talking about the ‘future’ America”

Wishful thinking.

Name one thing Moslems have built here

How 'bout two things: mosques (which should all be under constant surveillance) and terrorist training camps. There's one right here in South Carolina.

Of course they didn’t.

But in his empty mind those that started successful business “didn’t build those”.

This is pretty insane.

Obama’s statement is beyond outrageous. Only a Muslim community organizer will say such a thing. Really, who are the morons and imbeciles who voted for this ass?

Alexis de Tocqueville:

“I studied the Kuran a great deal ... I came away from that study with the conviction that by and large there have been few religions in the world as deadly to men as that of Muhammed. As far as I can see, it is the principal cause of the decadence so visible today in the Muslim world, and, though less absurd than the polytheism of old, its social and political tendencies are in my opinion infinitely more to be feared, and I therefore regard it as a form of decadence rather than a form of progress in relation to paganism itself.”

The only thing that comes to my mind is a recollection that I have of Roger Williams, founder of Rhode Island, speaking favorably of tolerance towards Moslems, and IIRC, citing some sterling Moslem individual as a model. I always thought, well yeah, one guy ...

Only a one word cringe-a-thon response is required:

Delusional

Muslims NEVER BUILT A GODDAMN THING IN AMERICA!
Hell, most Americans didn't even know what a muslim was until they started murdering innocent athletes and other people in the late 60’s and early 70’s.
The only thing Americans knew about these devil/pedophile worshiping primitive savages was the Nation of Islam, a group of criminal racist thugs, which they still are today.
