I don't know. I listened to the context, and it is true that he was talking about people calling him muslim in radio talk shows, but McCain hasn't said anything directly. But to say a line like "...it's true that McCain hasn't said anything about my Muslim faith..." instead of something to distance himself from calling himself a Muslim is quite a gaffe. Why didn't he say "my supposedly being a Muslim" or "McCain hasn't spoken about me being a Muslim"? Either of those would never have had the interpretation that "my Muslim faith" does.
If you think that it shouldn't have been interpreted as a gaffe at all, then why did Stephanopoulus immediately correct him?
FNC ran back-to-back one hour documentaries Sunday, first on John McCain, then another on Hussein Obama.
By coincidence, there was one bit of tape of Hussein (in Chicago I think) in which he uses the exact words “my Christian faith”.
I was intrigued by how very carefully Hussein mouthed the words, like he slowed down for a microsecond to review what he was about to say first — almost as if he knew he was treading in dangerous territory.
He’s a muslim. He’s hiding that. And he goofed this morning, letting out the truth.
Couldn’t be more obvious.
Go to the original thread titled “Freudian Slip” and follow post #750. It explains everything pretty well.
