Obama Says He Didn't Say What He Said

Did President Barack Obama come out in favor of the building of a mosque just steps away from where Islamic extremists slaughtered almost 3,000 Americans on 9/11? To paraphrase former President Bill Clinton, it depends on what your definition of "right" is. At last night's White House event to observe the Islamic holy month of Ramadan, Mr. Obama said that he believes "Muslims have the same right to practice their religion as everyone else in this country" and "that includes the right to build a place of worship and a community center on private property in lower Manhattan, in accordance with local laws and ordinances." After a major political backlash today which everyone (except the president) could see coming from the instant the words left his mouth, Mr. Obama is trying to distance himself from his own statements.

Sure sounded like it to me...fell into the "Is a pig's ass pork?" category. FUBO, as he tries to squirm his way out of this latest example of stepping on his foreskin.

...and we thought Biden was the idiot of this duo....

Reading a little too much sci-fi, I guess.

It was like saying the neo-Nazis have a right to build a memorial to efficient government at Auschwitz...

Whenever I see this ladies face and remember her joy of our anguish this always plays in my head.....

For the second time in her life, Michelle was proud of her ( Muslim Kenya ) country.

Actually, when he said that they have a right to practice their religion and to build a Islamic Religious Symbol near the sight and hollowed ground at ground zero on 9/11, and the fact that he does not condemn it, means, that he condones it, approves of what happen on 9/11 by Islam.
Can't have it both ways, either he condems it, of what happen on 9/11, or he condones it, approves it.
From the reaction from any Americans, they see that he condones what happen on 9/11 by Islam.

OK, Pyle, is this some more of your Islamic Okie-Dokie Bamboozle?"
