SNIPPET: "Georgetown University says it covered over the monogram “IHS”--symbolizing the name of Jesus Christ—because it was inscribed on a pediment on the stage where President Obama spoke at the university on Tuesday and the White House had asked Georgetown to cover up all signs and symbols there." SNIPPET: "Roman Catholics traditionally use “IHS” as an abbreviation for Jesus’ name." SNIPPET: "Although the monogram was removed from the wooden pediment on the Gaston Hall stage where it would have been directly above and behind President Obama as he spoke, the letters “IHS” are posted elsewhere around the hall approximately 26...

Last week, Barack Obama's campaign was burned yet again for its dalliance with Islamists - those who embrace Islam's repressive theo-political-legal code known as Shariah and who are working for its triumph in the West in general and the United States in particular. The episode is but the latest indication that the Democratic candidate hopes to win the White House by relying, in part, on the Jihadist vote. NBC reported Thursday that the Obama campaign's latest radical "Muslim outreach coordinator," Mouha Husaini, met last month in one of Washington's Northern Virginia suburbs - the heart of what has been dubbed...

Aren't charities refrained from getting involved in Politics? Makes me wonder if Obama has a Signed Agreement like Raila did with his Islamic Bros. Site also links to his Ramadan comment... "I want to convey my greetings to the American Muslim community on the Festival of Breaking the Fast that marks the end of Ramadan. Through fasting, prayer and charity, your observance this past month of the universal values of patience, generosity and caring for the less fortunate is an important reminder of the values that have helped make America great. As a nation, we must commit ourselves to that...

Barack Obama is lying when he insists that he has never prayed in a mosque and was never a Muslim, a prominent Middle East expert and journalist says. Daniel Pipes, founder of the Middle East Forum think tank, says he fully accepts that Obama is a Christian now. But there is strong evidence that Obama received a Muslim upbringing during his years in Indonesia, Pipes said. It's fine with me that he was a Muslim and a convert to Christianity, Pipes told Newsmax. Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal is a convert from Hinduism. I have no problem with his conversion. What...

A new poll shows that one in five West Virginia voters believe Barack Obama is a Muslim. And only half of voters in West Virginia say Obama is a Christian – despite a campaign by Obama and his supporters to shoot down the false rumor that he is Muslim. The poll of 600 likely voters was conducted by Orion Strategies for West Virginia Media and West Virginia Wesleyan College. It shows McCain 11 points ahead of Obama in West Virginia – 52 percent McCain; 41 percent Obama.

The way the media overtly tries to trip up Palin and yet gently helps Obama out of his numerous gaffes is getting nauseating ( Stephonopolis gently correcting Obama on subconsiously admitting his true faith, saying "you mean Christian faith"..and almost dead silence in media follow up) Now we already see the AP touting Sarah not being able to conjure an enclyclopedic congressional record photographic memory of McCain's record in a Katie Couric gotcha moment. I really think we should make the MSM sponsors hurt. Its their achilles heel. Something has to give here.

Immigration records show that Sen. Barack Obama’s grandfather, Baruch Heshy Obramowitz, was an Ethiopian “Falasha” Jew, who changed his surname when he moved to Kenya. The revelation has set off rumors that the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee is a secret Jew. An e-mail sent to Muslim voters, from a group called The Truth About Jewbama, claims that while growing up in Hawaii, the future senator attended a radical Jewish school, called a “Yeshiva.” The e-mail also says that his campaign has several Jewish advisers, including Woody Allen. Senator Obama issued a statement denying the charges. “I am not now, nor...

Republicans have jumped all over Barack Obama's statement in a George Stephanopoulos on "This Week," on ABC on September 7. "Let's not play games," he said. "What I was suggesting -- you're absolutely right that John McCain has not talked about my Muslim faith." The Main Stream Media have largely ignored the statement because members of the MSM believe it is there job as Good Democrats to make Barack Obama look good. Even the Republican oriented Washington Times criticized Republican bloggers for their treatment of the subject. "But illustrating the difficulty of preventing false rumors about his faith from spreading,...

Barack Obama makes his first campaign visit today to his alma mater, Columbia University. Just don't ask the prolific self-diarist to talk about his undergraduate days in Morningside Heights. The Columbia years are a hole in the sprawling Obama hagiography. In his two published memoirs, the 47-year-old Democratic nominee barely mentions his experience there. He refuses to answer questions about Columbia and New York -- which, in this media age, serves only to raise more of them. Why not release his Columbia transcript? Why has his senior essay gone missing? Now in our view, the college years shouldn't normally be...

A bright young student recently asked me this question in defense of her Messiah, Barack Hussein Obama...“Mr. Williams, my family name is Irish. Does that make me a terrorist member of the IRA?” After pointing out that she had made no effort to hide her ancestry, I answered, “No, but it does make you Irish.” (snip) The Real Point What do all of these facts mean in the real world where such an individual is seeking the most powerful political office in the world? Based upon the belief that 90 percent of the world’s billion-plus Muslim population is peaceful, does...

As a boy in Indonesia, Barack Obama crisscrossed the religious divide. At the local primary school, he prayed in thanks to a Catholic saint. In the neighborhood mosque, he bowed to Allah.... Obama’s four years as a child in Indonesia underscore how dramatically his background differs from that of past presidential hopefuls.... Obama’s campaign aides have emphasized his strong Christian beliefs and downplayed any Islamic connection. The candidate was raised “in a secular household in Indonesia by his stepfather and mother,” his chief spokesman, Robert Gibbs, said in a statement in January after false reports began circulating that Obama had...

Does that make me a terrorist member of the IRA?” After pointing out that she had made no effort to hide her ancestry, I answered, “No, but it does make you Irish.” Just because most Americans have never seen his name printed in native Arabic characters, باراك حسين اوباما – does not mean that he is not Arab. In fact, his Arab name is at the very least, a strong indication that he may be of Arab...

Barack Obama caused another stir over his ties to Islam on Sunday when he noted that “John McCain has not talked about my Muslim faith” in an interview with George Stephanopoulos. Stephanopoulos immediately corrected him, and Obama backtracked to say, “my Christian faith…What I’m saying is that he hasn’t suggested that I’m a Muslim.” A few pundits tried to make something of this, attempting to revive the “Obama is a Secret Muslim” rumors, but there really wasn’t anything more to it than a verbal stumble. Obama is not a Muslim, and there is enough to question about training, experience, ideology,...

Crossposting from another thread... The Muslim observance of Ramadan started on Sept 2, and lasts until Oct 1. Muslims are bound to fast from both food AND drink during daylight hours. I'm just wondering if Obama is making all of these major-league gaffes lately because he is fatigued from fasting?? The timeline makes sense, since he has been gaffe-crazy since about that date. Has anyone seen Obama eating or drinking in public during daylight hours???

Remember when Nicolas Kristof said of Obama here: " Mr. Obama has spoken respectfully of Islam (he told me last year, on the record, that the Muslim call to prayer is “one of the prettiest sounds on earth at sunset”). Apparently it has been scrubbed from the New York Times web site. Check that out. On the day Obama's freudian slip, "my Muslim faith" - that classic Obama quote disappears. What are they afraid of?

Barack Obama’s campaign brushed off suggestions Monday that a verbal gaffe the Democratic candidate made during a weekend television interview is anything more than just that. In an interview Sunday with ABC’s “This Week” host George Stephanopoulos, Obama tried to suggest that FOX News and others “closely allied” to Republicans are promulgating the notion that the Illinois senator is Muslim. Asked about whether McCain himself has done anything to suggest he’s Muslim, Obama said, “Let’s not play games. What I was suggesting — you’re absolutely right that John McCain has not talked about my Muslim faith. And you’re absolutely right...

Barack Obama was on This Week With George Stephanopoulos September 7th, Obama slipped and mentioned “His Muslim Faith” during the questioning. Freudian Slip? You decide.

Did Barry misspeak when he talked about his faith on This Week With George Stephanopoulos?

Barry Obama has slipped on his own faith by saying "John McCain has not... talked about... My muslim faith" Of which Stephanopolous carried the water and corrected him by saying "Christian faith". I think this is a VERY telling freudian slip by Barrack.

A 13 second clip during which Obama slips up and admits he is a Muslim this morning! I am sure You Tube will purge this. Can someone save it? Since the Liberals think it is just fine to attack a minor child I am sure they will understand when we defend her by...any...means...necessary.

OBAMA ADMITS HE'S A MUSLIM (UPDATED!) This is either laugh-out-loud funny or frightening depending on whether you believe he just made a mistake, or that he is accidentally admitting the truth.

Husseins "Muslim Faith" slowed and reversed "Pay off Muslim"

ST. LOUIS, Mo. - Sen. Barack Obama's foes seized Sunday upon a brief slip of the tongue, when the Democratic presidential nominee was outlining his Christianity but accidentally said, "my Muslim faith." The three words - immediately corrected - were during an exchange with ABC's George Stephanopoulos on This Week, when he was trying to criticize the quiet smear campaign suggesting he is a Muslim. But illustrating the difficulty of preventing false rumors about his faith from spreading, anti-Obama groups within one hour of the interview had sliced it out of context and were sending it around via email. They...

Within 10 minutes of this airing we’d already gotten four or five e-mails about it; 20 minutes later, a bowdlerized version had already hit YouTube and begun circulating. I despise lefty sites for twisting conservatives’ words by selectively editing clips, so let’s cut this one off at the pass before it gets going. Here’s the full exchange with Stephanopoulos, making it perfectly clear that when he says “my Muslim faith” he’s referring to how the people smearing him see him, not how he sees himself. No mas, please. video at link

A spokesman for Sen. Barack Obama's campaign is taking the Chicago Sun-Times to task for reporting on a verbal slip Obama made referring to "my Muslim faith."

I received this in an email today and wonder if this is authentic.From Rush Limbaugh's radio show ..... Hey, folks, you want to tweak the Drive-By Media with me right now? You are aware, probably, that Barack Obama lost his bearings recently and said that he was going to campaign in all 57 states. You heard this? And everybody chalked it up to, 'Well, he's tired.' You know, this is a Dan Quayle moment. I mean, Dan Quayle goes out there and misspells 'potato,' and we still hear jokes about it. Barack Obama says he's gonna go out and campaign...

Slip of the tongue or momentary confusion? In a television interview today discussing his religion, Sen. Barack Obama stated, "My Muslim faith." Obama, speaking to ABC's George Stephanopoulos on "This Week," was talking about what he described as "smears" that were claiming he was a Muslim when he maintains he is a practicing Christian. "Let's not play games," Obama stated. "What I was suggesting – you're absolutely right that John McCain has not talked about my Muslim faith. And you're absolutely right that that has not come." Stephanopoulos immediately interrupted Obama, stating, "Christian faith." "My Christian faith," Obama quickly said....

Barack Obama's half-brother Malik describes his brother's "Muslim background" and shows picture of young Barack in Muslim dress. The picture is shown on NewsMax.com's front page now: http://www.newsmax.com

In one of the most astonishing gaffes in American political history, in a national televised interview with ABC's George Stephanopolis, Democratic presidential candidate Barack Hussein Obama referred to "my muslim faith," confirming what so many researchers and political opponents have been claiming, and what the mainstream media has allow him to deny, until now. While Stephanopolis several seconds later tried to correct him, saying "Christian faith," it was too late. The damage was done. Obama clearly did not mean his Christian faith, since he was admitting that "John McCain has not talked about my Muslim faith."
