Huh? Who is stopping Obeymao from debating his "accusers" on this issue? He is free to confront them on this "smear" with the facts he has at his disposal. Heck, he's even free to come here and debate the issue. Hint: Saying "that's not true!" 100 times, or 1 million times, doesn't mean he has proven anything, even though that might be enough for you, Danielle. For a supposed "genius," you sure are clueless.
Obama is free to dispute this perception of his muslim past at any time. You act like he's bound and gagged inside the broom closet at RNC headquarters. Stop being an idiot, Danielle.
You assume that she is not aware that he could come here for a debate like many politicians have. These fascist militants don't want to debate FreeRepublic, they want to crush your civil rights like good little totalitarians.
FYI Beckwith response (with some introductory comments) also posted on AntiMullah to reach an expanded audience, including in the Moslem world. What a hit piece by that woman!

BTW Islam for Dummies is also being posted in Farsi on the Multilingual Page. We have found that most Iranians, who were used to the Shah’s Islam, where you were free to practise as you wished - or not at all - do not understand the “Real Mohammadan Islam” version (as several Persian commentators call it) that is now in place in Islamic Iran.
