Pro-Obama, Muslim-led voter registration in mosques

A leading critic of Islam isn't surprised there has been virtually no coverage or action taken against a Muslim group that has been running an illegal "get out the vote" campaign in swing-state mosques.

The group, Muslim Americans for Obama [MAFO], insists that all of its voter registration activity is non-partisan, despite the fact that its mission statement says it was launched in August 2008 "to provide a vehicle for Muslim-American supporters of Barack Obama to organize and mobilize our fellow citizens to get out the vote to elect Barack Obama the next president of the United States."

Continuing, the group's website states: "Although there is only a short period of time until the election..., there is much work to be done for supporters of Barack Obama's candidacy. [MAFO] was formed to offer a vehicle for Muslim-Americans to mobilize quickly and effectively so that our community turns out in great numbers for Barack Obama on Election Day."

The "get out the vote" events are scheduled at mosques in Michigan, Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey, Virginia, and Ohio.

Robert Spencer is director of Jihad Watch, a project of the David Horowitz Freedom Center. He argues MAFO may be skirting the law.

"When they are running these voter registration drives at mosques, really it's essentially illegal because they are clearly trying to get people to vote for Obama -- and that's in violation of their tax-exempt status," Spencer charges. "So this is a group that is crossing the line and ought to be disciplined as such."

The Jihad Watch leader, however, figures that is not likely to happen. "...I kind of doubt that they will be [disciplined], given the politically correct atmosphere nowadays," he says. "I wouldn't be the least surprised if no action is taken against them."

Spencer contends that if a group called "Christians for John McCain" claimed to be non-partisan and ran a registration drive in churches, it would be all over the media and create a huge scandal and embarrassment for the McCain campaign.

Imagine a world with this communist at the helm. Reparations for the sins of whites. Love fests with all the America hating tin-horn dictators in this world. Defeat in Iraq and Afghanistan. Adios to border with Mexico. Au revoir to the Second Amendment. Drive in abortion clinics. Hey, why not have clinics to dump your aging loved ones to have them gassed or aborted live.

The First Amendment is doomed uder his sharia-like thoughts.

We must arm ourselves NOW for the upcoming revolution.

Why isn’t McCain on this?!
Atrocious.

God bless Hannity.
It was he who first brought Wright to the attention of the American voter.
It is he who hits Obama hard every night on ‘Hannity and Colms’.

McCain should have brought all this out months ago.

Why is he not mentioning such things as Obama trying to turn Missouri into a police state? Obama trying to turn our children into ‘Hitler youth’?

Email Republican headquarters/McCain.

REMIND McCAIN THAT HE HAS AN OBLIGATION AS OUR CANDIDATE TO FIGHT BACK!

To h*ll with bipartisian BS!
To h*ll with PC!
To h*ll with ‘conducting a respectful campaign’as McCain has said, and vowed to do.

RESPECTFUL CAMPAIGNING WENT STRAIGHT OUT THE WINDWO WITH OBAMA’S NASTY, BRUTAL COMMENTS SUCH AS;
‘lipstick on a pig’ and ‘You can wrap AN OLD FISH in a piece of paper called change. It’s still going to stink after eight years.’

Take off the gloves, McCain!

Hit the Marxist/Muslim hard with Ayers, Acorn, Violation of Logan Act, abortion, 2nd admendment, Campaigning for Odinga!!

The future of our children and grandchildren is in great peril.

The forces of evil supporting Obama are frightening beyond belief.

We must fight for our survival and the future of this country.

This is the first that I have read about this, and I consider myself well-informed.

It seems that the corruption, intimidation, and voter fraud in the Obama campaign is so wide-spread and disturbing that we can hardly keep up.

Thanks for the excellent links.

We are no longer a nation governed by law.

We saw that when it took tons of bricks mailed to Washington to get the government to make a half hearted attempt to stop illegal immigration.

We saw that last week right in the White House and Congress when top government officials scammed taxpayers to protect the investments of those in and out of government responsible for the financial crash.

It seems that our own government has little interest in enforcing laws except for those that keep the middle class in harness.

Illegals, immigrants here to destroy America, government funded vote fraud, welfare cheats and corporate scam artists, crooked politicians who hide payoff money in their home freezers, senators who finagle crooked land deals and others who funnel government money to cronies and relatives, get a passing glance at best.

But just let a middle class taxpayer refuse to pay taxes used to bail out Wall Streeters or so someone from a protected group can sit on their worthless arse and see how fast the government moves.

I’d like to see him try to force reparations on everybody. He won’t do that because he knows he needs the white vote for re-election and to keep the congress democrat. In fact, he’ll throw the blacks under the bus.

Don’t forget what they did for the Webb campaign against George Allen in 2006: “As a result, Democrat James Webb ousted incumbent Republican George Allen by about 9,000 votes in a race in which 50,000 Muslims went to the polls — 47,000 of them voting for Webb ...” - U.S. - Muslim Taxi Drivers Credited for Swinging the Senate... - http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1758176/posts

This was from The Muslim News, a U.K. muslim website.

I missed this story in 2006.

This is why I am fearful that Virginia could go to the Obama column on election night.

What can we do?
