This isnt the Mazen Asbahi Ive known all these years...Well, he WAS just a volunteer. We didn't even know he was working for us. We are seeking another volunteer, however, for the position. We put an ad on Monster.com for a pro-American Muslim, but haven't gotten any responses.

Not much room under Obama, the Oreo/CINO’s bus for any trash left in his previous life.
Obama, the Oreo CINO, knew about this bastard’s Islamofacist links and still had him as his advisor until the word got out on the internet and talk shows.

Obama sure seems to have a lot of money. Perhaps that Islamic Investment fund has paid off nicely. But they tell me that most of Obama’s money comes in small $1000 donations from unemployed dishwashers living in the rough part of town.

The Obama campaign is trying to strike a balance between courting Muslim American voters and dispelling rumors intended by some to link the candidate to radical Islam. Sen. Obama is a Christian. Obama "is" what he needs to be at the moment. For the time being, this muslim apostate claims to be Christian.

Sen. Obama is a Christian. He's one of those Christians that carries a Hindu monkey god in his pocket.

To: Soliton
funny. he only resigned because of
public allegations against another member of the board.
so, if the allegations/rumors had not gone public, he wouldn't have cared.
the best evidence is that Asbahi didn't cite as a problem the fact that the fund was supported by the Saudis to strengthen radical Islam in America.
Allied Asset Advisors is a subsidiary of the North American Islamic Trust. The trust, which is supported financially by the government of Saudi Arabia, holds title to many mosques in the U.S. and promotes a conservative brand of Islam compatible with the ideology of the Muslim Brotherhood and also akin to the fundamentalist style predominant in Saudi Arabia. Allied executives did not respond to inquiries.

Pretty much leaves Obama as the only one in his crew who hasn't been mugged and dragged under his campaign bus although I have noticed a disturbing phenomenon lately, Obama seems to be distancing himself from.... himself.
