We've done it again, Freepers. Got the left's and Barack Hussein Obama's panties in a bunch.

Got the left's and Barack Hussein Obama's panties in a bunch.

That's not too hard - they're an intolerant, ultra-sensitive bunch.

Barack Hussein Obama's panties in a bunch.

Oh great, with the Washington Post's history of journalist integrity(sic), they will now say we are starting a rumor that BarryO is a cross-dresser.

Well all I can say is I’m disappointed in both the WaPo and the “brilliant” “Dr.” Allen.

Can’t they go a few yards further and tie the Freeper can to John McCain’s tail?

Why just last night, I saw Keith Olberman insist that Grover Norquist is a racist because one of his flacks called Obama “John Kerry with a tan” AND call him a McCain surrogate because they have apparently buried the hatchet in the years since the 2000 bitterness.

Surely the WaPo writers can make a persuasive case that us Freepers are a bunch of cross-burners and that we are hired McCain goons.

Well dang it! One of us may have to email the link to Olberman’s website. “If the mountain won’t come to Muhammed...” Ooops! There I go again...

Overall, I'm heartened by this attention for FR by MSM outlet WaPo.

I heard some guy on a Philly station today and he mentioned FR. I pricked up my ears and sure enough he was some journalist and he was talking about this rumor.

I realized the BO crew was out trying to divert the Hillary angle and make it a "right wing" rumor.

The media has no embarrassment about taking orders from the DNC.

Laid out before Allen, a razor-sharp, 36-year-old political theorist, was what purported to be a biographical sketch of Barack Obama that has become one of the most effective -- and baseless -- Internet attacks of the 2008 presidential season. During that time, polls show the number of voters who mistakenly believe Obama is a Muslim rose -- from 8 percent to 13 percent between November 2007 and March 2008.

Wow, that's one effective attack - changing the percent that believe Obama's a "radical Muslim" by 5 percent (based on their claim alone)./sarc

[McGruff]

Just trying to live up to Bill O’Reilly’s description of us. :^)

Guess they’re calling OSAMA Obama’s own brother a liar....

You are aware, probably, that Barack Obama lost his bearings recently and said that he was going to campaign in all 57 states. You heard this? And everybody chalked it up to, "Well, he's tired."

Barack Obama says he's gonna go out and campaign in 57 states, he was just tired, you know, it's been such a long campaign, he's been so many places, he probably thinks there are 57 states. Well, I have here a printout from a website called the International Humanist and Ethical Union. And here is how the second paragraph of an article on that website begins. "Every year from 1999 to 2005 the organization of the Islamic conference representing the 57 Islamic states presented a resolution to the United Nations commission on human rights called combating." And the title of the piece here is, "How the Islamic states dominate the UN human rights council," and there are 57 of them.

Obama said he's going to campaign in 57 states, and it turns out that there are 57 Islamic states. There are 57 Islamic states.

So did Obama just lose his bearings, or was this a more telling slip, ladies and gentlemen?

In the run up to the 2004 election, Martin admitted to the Post's Mosk that he had circulated the claim that since Obama was born to a Muslim father, Barack himself would be considered a Muslim by birth to any other Muslim.

There is one thing that Barack Hussein Obama Jr cannot change. He was born to a Muslim father. That is the truth that he cannot dispute!

People email and post about him being sworn in using a Koran, which is false. Emails which include the Koran swearing in discredit the other truths about his Muslim background.

[NonValueAdded]

Send that out in an email, will ya? Let's see where it leads.

You'd think they'd be more interested in the prominence of the birth certificate posts ... I wonder why they won't touch that story???

Y'all gotta see this!

[Ratblaster]

I swear to Allah and his prophet Muhammad(peace be upon him,) that I am not nor have ever a Muslim.
