Sounds like Osama’s willing to do ***whatever*** it takes to get elected.Even to the point of dissing his sisters of the mosque.One wonders if he's also taking campaign $$$ from China.....or Iran.

[EagleUSA]

Maybe just some ole groupies from Hussein’s madrassa!!!

[King_Corey]

If any Republican (Let alone a Conservative) did this it would be wall to wall coverage for months! Bah, the media will never hold them to the same standards.

Bill Burton, who added that the volunteers were acting contrary to the campaign's policy.

Sorry I don't believe you Bill.

"I was coming to support him, and I felt like I was discriminated against by the very person who was supposed to be bringing this change, who I could really relate to," said Hebba Aref, a 25-year-old lawyer who lives in the Detroit suburb of Bloomfield Hills. "The message that I thought was delivered to us was that they do not want him associated with Muslims or Muslim supporters."

Uh oh Obamma.

The two were probably clinton plants...I seriously doubt she has given up trying to sink him.

Diversity meets political reality meets Obama’s religious skeletons

Aref and her friends complained to the campaign, and after those complaints and an inquiry from Politico, Obama's director of advance, Emmett S. Beliveau, called her to apologize.

An Obama aide also noted that the campaign has no policy against the candidate's appearing with women in headscarves: The next morning at Wayne State University, Obama posed for a picture with a student wearing a hijab.

“This is of course not the policy of the campaign.”

These are not the campaign staffers I knew.

Waiting for the CAIR press conference. Waiting. Waiting.

PC is fine . . . as long as it doesn’t hit too close to home, eh, Hussein?

Wow. Muslims supporting a Christian. Considering what the Koran says a Muslim must do to Christians they are in danger of being stoned, beaten, or beheaded.

Unless, of course, the "Christian" part of Obama-lama-ding-dong is a facade.

[Miss Didi]

Why is this not surprising...I mean, Barry Hussein has a page on his website which declares he is not, nor was he ever a Muslim.

Am I the only one who finds the whole people-behind-the-podium thing in general to be bogus as hell?

[SueRae]

smirk. Getting real crowded under that bus, isn’t it?

The image consultants have told the Obama campaign that he has to avoid being associated with that middle eastern group.
Image is everything.
Truth, to image consultants and democrat campaigners, means nothing.

From April:

While the crowd was indeed diverse, some students at the event questioned the practices of Mrs. Obama’s event coordinators, who handpicked the crowd sitting behind Mrs. Obama. The Tartan’s correspondents observed one event coordinator say to another, “Get me more white people, we need more white people.” To an Asian girl sitting in the back row, one coordinator said, “We’re moving you, sorry. It’s going to look so pretty, though.”

“I didn’t know they would say, ‘We need a white person here,’ ” said attendee and senior psychology major Shayna Watson, who sat in the crowd behind Mrs. Obama. “I understood they would want a show of diversity, but to pick up people and to reseat them, I didn’t know it would be so outright.”

Trotsky meets the airbrush.

His middle name would start to ‘glow” again , if associated with hijab-ed backgrounds.
