Congress forces Oblama to bow down on his Muslim prayer rug, once again. The mask comes off 8 years too late.

Certainly CNN will interrupt its non-stop coverage of race riots, police shootings, etc., to inform the public of this outrage. /s

As much as I despise the bamster, this is totally expected. Bush would probably do the same thing since he likes to hold hands with and kiss the goat shagging house of Saud.

Actually, Obama’s mask was already off before the 2008 election and even moreso before the 2012 election: Reverend Jeremiah Wright, Bill Ayers, “Muslim call to prayer the sweetest sound I ever heard,” sending back the Churchill statue to England first thing in office; making phone call to the enemies of Israel his first act; telling Egypt that Islam and the best and that he is one of them; speaking on camera about “my Muslim faith; Michelle and his grandmother saying he was born in Kenya; his autobiography of 2001 stating that he was born in Kenya; his spending elementary school learning to speak and pray Muslim prayers, his never going to church; his wearing Muslim code ring; giving the Muslim high sign when around Muslims; choosing Muslim Brotherhood inner circle to be his kitchen cabinet and advisors to the State Department on foreign policy; his traitorous gift of untold billions and nuclear weapons to the world’s arch terrorist nation, Iran, is deposing of stable Egyptian leader Mubarek in favor of Muslim Brotherhood leader; turning Libya into chaos and mayhem.

Bipartisan consent! When he is not a uppity fool he is a hard core Leftie.

I hope Trump doesn't mention this in the debate on Monday. It might prove embarrassing to Hillary!

Considering how the Big Zero has sided with the Saudi mortal enemy Iran, I find this action strangely surprising by Obama.

Good. This helps us.

Agree. What if Iraqi citizens were allowed to sue our Government for the invasion, or the Afghans.
