America's first Muslim president? (Article that is worthwhile to rehash)
washington times ^ | 6/9/2009 | frank gaffney

During his White House years, William Jefferson Clinton -- someone Judge Sonia Sotomayor might call a "white male" -- was dubbed "America's first black president" by a black admirer. Applying the standard of identity politics and pandering to a special interest that earned Mr. Clinton that distinction, Barack Hussein Obama would have to be considered America's first Muslim president.

This is not to say, necessarily, that Mr. Obama actually is a Muslim any more than Mr. Clinton actually is black. After his five months in office, and most especially after his just-concluded visit to Saudi Arabia and Egypt, however, a stunning conclusion seems increasingly plausible: The man now happy to have his Islamic-rooted middle name featured prominently has engaged in the most consequential bait-and-switch since Adolf Hitler duped Neville Chamberlain over Czechoslovakia at Munich.

What little we know about Mr. Obama's youth certainly suggests that he not only had a Kenyan father who was Muslim, but spent his early, formative years as one in Indonesia. As the president likes to say, "much has been made" -- in this case by him and his campaign handlers -- of the fact that he became a Christian as an adult in Chicago, under the now-notorious Pastor Jeremiah A. Wright.

With Mr. Obama's unbelievably ballyhooed address in Cairo Thursday to what he calls "the Muslim world" (hereafter known as "the Speech"), there is mounting evidence that the president not only identifies with Muslims, but actually may still be one himself. Consider the following indicators:

• Mr. Obama referred four times in his speech to "the Holy Koran." Non-Muslims -- even pandering ones -- generally don't use that Islamic formulation.

Some of the observations by Gaffney are truly informative as evidence we are dealing with a POTUS who may be unAmerican in many different ways.

Is he un-American or simply raised in the anti-American environment that has grown here since WWII?

Let’s see... he grew up with a muslims father in a muslim country... We know how tolerant they are of other religions, so what religion do you think he was raised as?

And if he later ‘converted’ to christianity- what is the punishment for that?

Oh.. and did they ever settle on which church they will attend in DC?

To the degree, zero has any religion, it does appear to be Islam. He's shown time and again his deference to that world view. He also seems to be a closet misogynist that is probably the result of resentment left over from his mother separating him from his father and then herself abandoning him. The misogynist strain dovetails nicely with Islam. Zero seems to bear a number of grievances, and Islam also seems to appeal to people with grudges. People are under the impression that he is the great peace maker; that he listens to his opponents with an open mind and recognizes some merit in their views. Actually his approving tone of opposing views is all just noise; he moves on with his agenda and speaks of his opponents using the expected stereotypes off mike.

That is the deceiving MO. The rulers of Egypt, N.Korea, Iran, Libya recently and now our Pres, tell them anything they want to know, lie, lie and lie because the end justifies the means. The means is one world government run by the Marxist/communists and the world loves BHO.
