What major gaffe? When did Sunday get to be such a big news day? I HAVE CHURCH LOL!
Obam-uh-uh-uh was on one of the discussion shows this morning and .. (they're saying it was an honest slip -- yeah right) .. he said ".. my Muslim faith."
OOPS!
Barack Obama must need more sleep and after the week he has had he must need a cigarette. The Sainted One was on This Week with George Stephanopoulos and he made two mistakes. The first one dealt with the smears against candidates and Obama stated that the McCain campaign had not brought up “My Muslim faith”. Fortunately for Obama, George Stephanopoulos was there to immediately correct him like a good Democrat and to say "You meant your Christian faith?" to which Obama immediately concurred. Obama went on to say how McCain surrogates had been the ones and completely ignored the fact that Hillary and her peeps were the ones to spread this all over during the primary.
The other item is more than likely an outright lie. Obama was asked if he had ever considered joining the military and he said he had. This little tidbit has NEVER been mentioned during the oh so long campaign and according to the news, Obama did not mention this in either of his books. One would think that might be a big deal. It is likely that Obama is lying about this in order to ingratiate himself with people who actually support the military. The second part of the lie comes in when he said he had to register for the Selective Service when he graduated from high school. There was no registration for the Selective Service when Obama graduated.
The draft and the Selective Service registration were ended by Republican presidents (Nixon and Ford respectively) and the new registration requirement was instituted by a Democrat, Jimmy Carter. Yes, Obama was required to register but he graduated in 1979 and the registration was reinstated in 1980. Therefore, Obama was not required to register when he graduated, as he claims in the interview. He was not required to register until a year later.
George Stephanopoulos of course did not correct Obamamessiah on that fact and simply let that error stand as if it were the truth.
