Obama marks beginning of Muslim holy month
Washington comPost ^ | 8/21/2009

Posted on 08/21/2009 12:45:09 PM PDT by markomalley

President Barack Obama is continuing his outreach to the Muslim world in a video message marking the start of the Islamic holy month of Ramadan.

The monthlong period of prayer, reflection and sunrise-to-sunset fasts begins Saturday in most of the Islamic world.

In the message posted on the White House Web site, Obama says the rituals of Ramadan are a reminder of the principles Muslims and Christians have in common. He says those principles include advancing justice, progress, tolerance and the dignity of all human beings.

The SOB would not acknowledge the National Day of Prayer, but he does this? But we were “wacky” for making these claims about him during the campaign. Too bad it’s all being proven to be true.

He forgot to add “Health Care” at the end of that sentence.

He said that Jesus would want you to implement socialized medicine. But he hasn’t said where Mohammed would stand on the issue.

During “ramadan” are moslems only allowed to commit homicide bombings after evening “prayers”?

He ignored Lent and Easter. Past presidents have a lot of press on their Easter Sunday church goings. Only crickets. And he is still looking for a church for his family in Dc. Kinda like oj still looking for the killer of his ex. I guess rev wright’s kind of spew can’t be found in dc.

Obama hasn’t even been to church in a year excepting his grandmother’s memorial service and Easter this year.

Obama served in DC but clearly didn’t have a church there. He DID say that he would listen to tapes from his old Chicago church (of God Damn AmeriKKKa). So even when he wasn’t IN church, he still got Reverend Jeremiah Wright’s messages.

We all knew this was coming. Only the 69 million idiots or so who voted for Zero didn’t.
