Are Americans total numbskulls? (Barf)
Washington Post ^ | 8-20-10 | Achenbach

Posted on 08/20/2010 3:35:02 PM PDT by radioone

God help us. Could so many Americans really be that dumb, ill-informed, paranoid, gullible and goofy? It must be tricky being Barack Obama, winding down the U.S. presence in volatile Iraq, trying to keep Afghanistan from degenerating, pondering war with Iran, even as, according to the latest bulletin, one in five Americans thinks he is a Muslim.

Why not just believe he's an alien from outer space? Or a Manchurian Candidate, programmed by, say, the Chinese to bring America to ruin?

Crazy times.

Steve Emerson has unearthed 13 hours of audio tape of Imam Rauf. Emerson and his team of investigators has spent the past four weeks going through the newly found material. Rauf is a “radical extremist cleric who cloaks himself in sheep’s clothing.”

Among the shocking revelations Emerson’s team will reveal next week — they found Rauf:

Defending wahhabism – a puritanical version of Islam that governs Saudi Arabia

Calling for the elimination of Israel by claiming a one-nation state, meaning no more Jewish State.

Defending Bin Laden’s violence

Demonstrating that there is a lot more to this man than merely a cleric.

The American public now sees the “deception perpetrated by all these Islamic groups that claim they are against violence and terrorism and insist that their rights be respected but in reality are fronts for the Muslim Brotherhood.”

I’ve heard of “middle age spread”, but that must be some kind of record for it. :-)

I think Obama is an Alien Muslim Manchurian candidate, just to cover all the bases. Prove me wrong.

The American public now sees the “deception perpetrated by all these Islamic groups that claim they are against violence and terrorism and insist that their rights be respected but in reality are fronts for the Muslim Brotherhood.”

Emerson states there is “definitely fraud involved in the entities that Rauf created in the last decade that are co-mingled.” Emerson took it to the IRS, who said, “you have a case.”

There is intel that the shady developers, the Gamal brothers, will be going to radical Islamic organizations to serve as connectors — CAIR, MPAC — so that they do their bidding for the money.

The mosque “is going to be a magnet for radicals.” Emerson is not opposed to the building of mosques. He is “opposed to the building of radical mosques.” ......”Unfortunately 80% of the mosques in the United States are controlled by the Wahhabists. That’s the reality. No one wants to admit it. They’re the ones that attract terrorists.”

The answer is 'yes', but not for the reason this guy thinks.

Americans never act until the last minute. Most are just becoming aware of the danger posed by Obama and the communists. Give em a chance. The Grapevine is just now getting going. It will be like a Snowball going down Hill.

Okay, how can you be a Muslim if you worship yourself?

If 1/5th of Americans believing he is Muslim makes Americans “numbskulls,”

... does 4/5ths of Muslims believing he is a Muslim make them Super-numbskulls?

Mr. Achenbach? Are you there?
