It was Hillary’s 2008 campaign that started the birther and Muslim stuff about 0bama.

Those yammering about Trump not going after the guy at his rally are perfectly comfortable about the DNC officially aligning themselves with the murderous BlackLiesMatter crowd. The 0bama administration has even welcomed these thugs with open arms into the White House. The GOP should hang the increased crime rate, and increased of the murder of cops around the necks of every democrat.

Then… the deluge. OMG! Trump doesn’t stand up to some nitwit who says the President is a Muslim!

Nitwit?

Where is the evidence that he isn't a Muslim?

He says so?

When has he ever denied being a Muslim?

He claims to be a Christian, but where is the evidence that he has said "I am NOT a Muslim"?

Here is how I responded to the silly ranting of Chris Matthews & Bill Maher on this subject.

Yes, to be very clear. Donald Trump handled the questions that have Chris & Bill so excited, precisely in the most statesman like manner It was a splendid moment for Trump, if one fully understands the context.

But before going into that, let me make it very clear. I am not anti-Muslim. I do not favor large scale immigration from the Near East, for the same reason that I do not favor large scale immigration from most places. We do not need new settlers; we do not need cultural diversity. But that is not directed against Islam. Yet none of that has really anything material to do with the subject of what happened at the Town Meeting.

Trump's approach was not bigoted; not in the slightest. The article shows who was bigoted, and it is those "politically correct" crack-pots, who believe other people have a duty to stifle any thought with which those "politically correct" crackpots do not agree. (The defined category includes Hillary Clinton, and quite a few confused babblers, of which Matthews & Maher are perhaps among the grossest examples.)

Stifling free expression is not the duty of a candidate; it is not the moral duty of anyone. It is, to be sure, the essence of the "politically correct" crackpot! And Donald has already, clearly distanced himself from the "politically correct" crackpots. In that, he is truly a breath of fresh air.

Now Islam is not the issue, in dealing with this thread. Obama's upbringing, and ideological orientation, and the bases for all of that, are continuing issues, whether Matthews & Maher want to gobble something otherwise or not. And many Americans are not convinced that Obama was actually born here. Just who are Matthews & Maher to say that no one should be permitted to inquire into such subjects?

Cheers!

TUCC accepts muslims and Jeremiah Wright has gone so far as to say that he made special accommodations to make sure Obama's muslim traditions would not be offended.

And Obama's deep love for islam is on full display yet he mocked Christianity and even rejects Christian refuges who are being persecuted in the ME.

Obama most fricken certainly is NOT a Christian...he is most certainly a muslim.

Care to bet whether that guy who asked that question is a Hillary staffer?

Nothing, not even being exposed as blatant hypocrites, will stop the elites from trying to destroy Trump. They can’t handle the loss of status.

Obama: my muslim faith 18 sec video.

Of course he's a muslim. Who else would say my muslim faith.

Not a Christian, not a Jew.

Jeffrey Lord is one of my favorite columnist, but he has now joined CNN and might be changing.

This article was crap.

As usual the liberals will always find something to get outraged about. It's not Trump's job to challenge every one he doesn't agree with.

Obama is anti-American in the opinion of most Americans. Whether he is a card carrying Muslim, a communist saboteur, or just an enlightened progressive, the behavior is all the same.

Almost a third of the American people do not think Obama is a Christian. If he can’t convince the people he is why does it become Trumps responsibility to do the job ?

when Obama said..."it's true that McCain has not made an issue of my Muslim faith"....and Steffy said "Christian faith", so if that's what Obama meant that sentence would read like this..

"it's true that McCain has not made an issue of my Christian faith"...... WHY would McCain make an issue of him being a Christian??? THAT WOULD MAKE NO SENSE SINCE THEY ARE BOTH CHRISTIANS!!

Obama OUTED himself....although so many dumbasses voted for him even believing that Barack HUSSEIN Obama was a Muslim, they hate America so much they also want it destroyed.

no true Christian in any sense of the word would deride Christian faith, which is precisely what Obama did back in 2008 with his full “bitter clingers” comment that he believed was made in private to wealthy liberal donors.

look up the full comment. you can almost hear the contempt dripping from it.

Of course it is not Trump's duty to defend Obama, or to silence someone who holds a negative opinion of Obama.

This attack on Trump is not about logic; it is wholly an example of the Leftist attempts to bully people.

Obama isn’t Christian. Obama isn’t Moslem. He is a member of the Church of the Perpetual Karlmarx, of which he himself is a Saint.

The fact that Trump did not interrupt or put him down shows his respect for the first amendment

Mr. Jeffrey Lord re-defines the word “obtuse” when he says he believes ANYTHING coming out of the mouth of this demonstrated and documented and serial liar!

Yes! The Left really does not respect the First Amendment. That has been clear for a great many years.

The big question is Not if the muslims (Yes, I call them muslims because they call themselves muslims.) are going to attack and try to destroy the west on it’s own soil, the big question, bigger then any other question, is when are the muslims going to attack and try to destroy the west on it’s own soil.
