Hey pissant,
I wonder if the book mentions this:

Malik Obama confirms his half-brother Barack grew up a Muslim
By Israel Insider staff June 13, 2008
Apparently the Obamas of Kenya have been reading those scurrilous emails to which Barack likes to refer, because they have no doubt — contrary to the claims of the Obama campaign, that the presidential candidate was raised a Moslem. They take that as a given.
As the Jerusalem Post reports, “Barack Obama’s half brother Malik said Thursday that if elected his brother will be a good president for the Jewish people, despite his Muslim background. In an interview with Army Radio he expressed a special salutation from the Obamas of Kenya.”
The Obama brothers’ father, a senior economist for the Kenyan government who studied at Harvard University, died in car crash in 1982. He left six sons and a daughter. All of his children - except Malik — live in Britain or the United States. Malik and Barack met in 1985.
In a remarkable denial issued last November that still stands on the official campaign website, Obama spokesman Robert Gibbs issued a statement explaining that “Senator Obama has never been a Muslim, was not raised as a Muslim, and is a committed Christian.”
Apparently Malik Obama, himself a Muslim, had not read the press release.
Melanie Phillips is the most recent commentator to draw attention to the massive body of evidence that leaves no doubt that Barak Hussein Obama was born a Muslim (Islam is patrilineal) and raised a Muslim (so registered in school, acknowledging attending Islamic classes, reported accompanying his step-father to the mosque, and able to recite the Koran in the original Arabic).
Reuven Koret, Aaron Klein and Daniel Pipes have previously pointed to the attempts by Obama and his campaign to conceal the candidate’s Muslim background. The well documented evidence draws upon the on-the-ground interviews by researchers in Indonesia and Kenya, published quotations of Obama’s childhood friends and his school records, as well as the candidate’s own autobiography.
It is not clear whether Barack Obama will now disown his half-brother Malik, or throw him under the campaign bus, for acknowledging that shared family background. In any case, some one should notify “Fight the Smear” tout de suite. Perhaps they can get him with the program.
Obama’s “Church” seems to be merely a weekly POLITICAL RALLY, and frankly should be audited by the IRS and have it’s non profit status yanked.

There are some very naive people writing books these days. Can’t wait for this one to wind up on the bargain table.
“There are also passages in Mansfield’s book that may give Obama’s secular supporters pause. In particular, a theme from his book on Bushthe suggestion that the president’s rise was itself an act of God-reappears in his coverage of Obama. He approvingly quotes Obama’s old rival Rep. Bobby Rush saying that Obama’s Senate win was “divinely ordained.””
I think this will give not only secularists, but a lot of Christians pause as well - or it should. This author a supposed “Conservative Republican” is falling hook, line & sinker for the Obamessiah rhetoric. Absolutely disgusting...
Remember this quote folks, “I am confident that we can create a Kingdom right here on Earth.” - Barack Obama
[I assume, of course, that he means with him as our dictator, oops, I mean “President”...]
So the Evangelicals are going to support the guy who wants an abortion in every pot and a white person under every bus? hmmmm.
Should read: The McCain campaign is pretty clumsy when it comes to most everything religion
A gem of truth out of a sea of silliness.......
Shaking the money tree...
Barack is black?
“Mansfield's book validates Obama’s attempt-which began in earnest in his 2004 speech to the Democratic National Convention-to provide a compelling public face to the nascent “Religious Left.” In that speech, he proclaimed that “we worship an awesome God in the blue states,”
The Religious Left has about as much in common with Biblical Christianity as does Islam. The god they worship in the blue states is the god of big government and humanism. Babel all over again.
Mansfield has to be a biblical lightweight to be impressed by Obama’s theological vacuity.
Of course, now that they have what appears to be a true Christian preacher, Obama has quit the church.
Gee - an ‘evangelical Christian’ writing a positive book on a man who advocates partial birth abortion. Riiiiight.
What utter bravo sierra. I know of no true evangelic Christian who says such things and justifies such utter immoral behavior as abortion in favor of someone simply 1because they are "ist of all" black.
This is juts more evidence of the kool aide and that Obama's ardent followers, including the DNC and the MSM, are not swayed be logic, reason, or truth. To them, regardless of his positions, his gaffes, his past, or his associations, he is an idol, and they are the idolaters. No true evangelic buys that without deluding themselves.
Those wild eyed people represent the millions of Americans raised in the government day-care and indoctrination centers we call public schools who did not have, or would not listen to, parents and others who tried to counterweight the garbage they heard at school...who have been raised on 60 second sound bite time spans and know no better.
You have other tens of millions on the dole who will vote for him regardless of position because he promises to keep pilfering the public largess for them.
Still othes of millions will vote for him simply because he is black and they refuse to look into his background and associations.
Other millions will vote for him because they know exactly who he is and what he represents and agree with his anti-American positions.
The first three are all what is termed, useful idiots, a term coined by Lennin for the dupes he got to support him.
Against this it is left to us to educate, arouse, and amass the tens of millions of Americans who understand and hold fast to the foundational principles our constitutional republic rests upon...many of them the bitter, rural Americans clinging to their guns and religion that Obama so arrogantly spoke of.
Note this comparison:
Barack Hussein Obama is the apex of the hate-America, domestic enemy in this country. His election as president would be the greatest coup any enemy has ever scored against this country and could easily lead to the worst, horrific disaster in our nation's history.
There are no “Christians” mentioned in the media anymore and the so called “Chrisitan Right” has been replaced with the PC term “Evangelicals”.
Another nut like Kmiec and Peggy Noonan... There is nothing remotely "Christian" about the racial hatred and hatred of country spewed forth in Obama's "church".
McCain has made it clear that he does not like evangelical Christians and does not want their support, so Obama would be smart to try to win over this constituency.
Two points: 1) Anybody who votes for BO because he's black is a racist.
2) Anybody who supports partial birth abortion is either not a christian or christian very much in need of repentance.
pfft. No faithful Christian would support abortion the way Obami has.
Check my tagline folks, Christians do not bargain with the devil.
