Why was George helping him out instead of asking a follow up question such as ‘are you a Muslim?’

Why was George helping him out instead of asking a follow up question such as ‘are you a Muslim?’

Agreed. He should have asked for clarification, not corrected him.

To me, that was the real "Freudian slip". George revealed himself as a waterboy for the Obama campaign.

Stephi (George) should have followed up with, "so do you think your being a Muslim might affect your campaign, and the voters perception of you?"

That sound bite will crush him, it will be played by Sean Hannity, O'Rielly, and Rush Limbaugh till the cows come home.
