Obama's Grandma Changes Islam Story From Little Green Footballs: "Yesterday’s edition of USA Today had a story about Barack Obama’s grandmother in Kenya, in which she slams the Clinton campaign for circulating photos of Obama in Muslim garb—and then states that she is a Christian: Obama’s grandma slams ‘untruths’."
"Obama’s grandfather had converted to Islam from Roman Catholicism and taken the name Hussein, Sarah Obama said, but his children had inherited only the name, not the religion. Each person should be able to choose how they worshipped, she said. “In the world of today, children have different religions from their parents,” she said. She, too, is a Christian. Just one little problem with this statement.
In April of last year, Sarah Hussein Obama told the New York Times she is a devout Muslim.
Sarah Hussein Obama, who is his stepgrandmother but whom Mr. Obama calls his grandmother, still rises at 5 a.m. to pray before tending to her crops and the three orphans she has taken in. “I am a strong believer of the Islamic faith,” Ms. Obama, 85, said in a recent interview in Kenya. We haven't seen anything about this in the mainstream media yet, but chances are it won't receive much mention. And, if it does, no doubt there will be much said about Ms. Obama's advanced age. However, she expressed herself quite clearly on the subject of "untruths" about her grandson. One should not lie while berating other liars.
To quote Perry Mason during many a courtroom scene: "The question is, Madam.....were you lying then or are you lying now?"
You can't have it both ways, Grandma.

Wonder what would happen if after Obama takes office, he announces a “conversion” to Islam.
Or, would he be bold enough to say “I’ve always been a Muslim!” At which point his swooning useful female idiots would all throw on burquas and scream like they are at a Beatles concert.
It is permissable to lie to the infidel in order to advance the cause of Islam.
Barack Obama’s Muslim grandmother in Kenya, who is not even a relative.
What about his real grand mother ?
I remember reading somewhere that Obama’s white grandmother lives with his sister and is suffering from Alzheimer’s.
Mr Obama becomes an president. The economy miraculously snaps back and he becomes incredibly popular. He proposes an historic bid for world peace. A merger of the worlds three great religions, Christianity, Judaism, Islam. He gets the Nobel and the UN hails his foresight and bold thinking. The Saudis and Iranians embrace the idea enthusiastically (on the condition that Christians give up the divinity of Christ). Anyone who resists (10% of Christians and all the Jews) become outcasts and persecuted. The world goes to hell. Jesus returns just in time.
Please do !
Obama’s “family” is a shameful joke. Everyone calls Obama’s knocked-up-at-18 mother Ann, but her real first name is Stanley. How proletarian and progressive. Whole family is a bunch of anti american communist sympsthizers.
Obama’s influences are all hard core Smith Act fellow travelers.
You couldn't be more correct.
He is not Muslim. Or Christian. He is a Nietzschean/communist/ubermensch. Full of himself; gonna change the world.
I seem to recall reading something like that before somewhere - it was quite a revelation...
Sr. Obama seemed to court, wed and sire many children with various "wives" at various times (occasionally occurring concurently.)
Oh, absolutely, Granny. Doesn't mean they get to be President though.
Not bad.
His Christianity - UCC - is on board, as is much of the rest of the mainline denoms. Judaism will not be a problem. Orthodox Judaism is about equal with Xn Evangelicalism. Muslims will reject any change on their part but the rest of the religious world will acommodate.
The anti Christ will come as a great peacemaker. He will unify the world under the authority of a super state. He will institute an authoritarian reign of terror such as the world has not seen since Stalin, Mao or Pol Pot.
Indeed, they will be his luminaries. He will bring darkness where there was light. His followers will call the light dark and the dark light. This is the chaos Mohammed promises. Then will come Christ who will destroy the darkness at its source.
