Whatever the question, this is my comment.

Of all the clergy in America ..... why her?
Obama invites Hamas and Muslim Brotherhood linked ISNA to offer prayer at inauguration. ISNA was an unindicted co-conspirator in the same Hamas funding case that named CAIR as a Muslim Brotherhood group - in the same Brotherhood document that speaks of its goal of destroying Western civilization from within. (more)
Creeping Sharia has more:
A prayer will be offered at the National Cathedral by Ingrid Mattson, the first woman president of the Islamic Society of North America, according to an official who spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to release the information. The Islamic Society, based in Indiana, is the nation’s largest Muslim group. Source: AP
In ISNA Admits Hamas Ties, previously classified details on ISNA’s Hamas and Muslim Brotherhood connections are revealed:
In its latest filing before the federal district court in Dallas on behalf of the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA) and its affiliate organization, the North American Islamic Trust (NAIT) in the Hamas-terrorism financing case, the ACLU has made a noteworthy admission.
Rather than deny that there is copious evidence tying ISNA and NAIT to Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood, the brief argues that such evidence is merely dated. In a curious footnote on page 7, the reply states:
Assuming the authenticity of documents’ dates, the most recent documents to mention either ISNA or NAIT are dated 1991, Gov. Exhs. 3-3 and 3-85, but the majority of the documents are older. Almost all of the numerous exhibits that purport to show financial transactions and that contain any mention of ISNA or NAIT are dated 1988 and 1989 (there are two dated 1990), almost a decade before the majority of the overt acts the government alleges in support of its conspiracy charges against the HLF defendants.
So ISNA and NAIT are not saying that the documents tying their organizations to Hamas are “inauthentic,” but that the problem with the evidence is just that it is old.
Obama is quite fond of ISNA, an unindicted co-conspirator to a convicted terrorist funding organization, HLF, and previously invited Mattson to preside over an interfaith event at the Democratic National Convention. More on Ingrid Mattson in Her Own Words.
And more on ISNA from Frontpage’s Reforming Terror (the rest here).
OF COURSE!
Maybe he’s trying to get on Osama’s good side.....gag)
Aww man, don’t you know who Osama-Obama’s friends are by now?
Unbelievable what this woman has stated here: “The first duty of Muslims in America, therefore, is to help shape American policies so they are in harmony with the essential values of this country. Indeed, the American Constitution, like foundational religious texts, can be read in many different ways. The true values of America are those which we decide to embrace as our own. There is no guarantee, therefore, that Americans will rise to the challenge of defining themselves as an ethical nation; nevertheless, given the success of domestic struggles for human dignity and rights in the twentieth century, we can be hopeful.”

I wasn’t aware that, “In the realm of foreign policy, this “idealistic” view has been out of fashion for some time.”
I didn’t know values changed with the fashion. Too bad this woman doesn’t understand VIRTUE. ;-/
“...the American Constitution, like foundational religious texts, can be read in many different ways”
This woman is a dangerous JOKE!
Muzzie
God Help us.
given the success of domestic struggles for human dignity and rights in the twentieth century, we can be hopeful.â€
How many prayers is he going to have? First Rick Warren, then some gay guy, now this person?
Who’s next?
What we need to do is totally boycott watching the Coronation and have a national prayer event, praying for God to bless and Defend the People of the United States. And the Free World.

(Quote)"Like the Jewish legal tradition, Islamic law is a conversation represented in dynamic and diverse schools of thought. Edward N. Luttwak speaks of an essentialized Islamic law that does not exist.
Nevertheless, there is no dispute among Muslims that Islam is not an ethnic affiliation, nor is it passed through the gene pool. A Muslim parent is morally responsible for raising his or her child within Islam; children, for their part, have no legal culpability. There is no legal obligation by a child to affiliate with the Muslim community.
Islam does not consider Barack Obama ever to have been part of the Muslim community. Apostasy has no relevance here.

Why do people not think this guy is a muslim? It’s so obvious. Haven’t seen that WH dog yet, either.
If people want on or off this list, please let me know.
In God We Trust.

We’re toast.......
I wasn’t planning on inflicting that on myself.
I never was big on making myself throw up.
Personally I think she had a weak identity and becoming a Muslim makes her “somebody” or gives her an identity that she didn't have before. She's a passive aggressive cipher.
Any Westerner who converts to Islam is looking for an identity and wants to be “special” when they were zero's before.
