Gallup: Obama’s Approval Highest Among Muslims—78 Percent
CNS ^ | 8/27/2010 | Terrance P Jeffrey

CNSNews.com) - While President Barack Obama’s overall approval rating averaged 48 percent for the first seven months of 2010, it was 78 percent among Muslim Americans, according to the Gallup Poll. That gave the president a higher approval rating among Muslims than among any other religious category reported by the poll.

Members of other non-Christian religions (not including Judaism) gave Obama his second highest approval rating at 64 percent, according to Gallup, and people who described themselves as having no religion, or being agnostics, or atheists gave Obama a 63 percent approval rating.

Mormons gave Obama his lowest approval rating among the religious groups reported by Gallup. In the first seven months of 2010, only 24 percent said they approved of the job Obama was doing. He ranked next lowest among Protestant Americans, who gave him a 43 percent approval rating, then Catholic Americans, who gave him a 50 percent approval rating, and then Jewish Americans, who gave him a 61 percent approval rating.

Despite President Obama’s high approval rating of 78 percent among Muslim Americans during the first seven months of 2010 that was nonetheless still not as high as the approval ratings the president won from Muslim Americans last year. In the first half of 2009, Muslim Americans gave Obama an approval rating of 86 percent. In the second half of 2009, they gave him an approval rating of 83 percent. In all three periods, President Obama's approval rating among Muslim Americans was higher than among any of the other religous groups reported by the Gallup survey.

The latest survey, in which Muslim Americans gave President Obama an approval rating of 78 percent, was completed on July 31, before the president gave a speech at the White House on Aug. 13 defending the right of Muslims to build a mosque in lower Manhattan.

I am dreaming I was being more sarc.

Karl Marx said that their agenda could not pass and spread through force but they had to get into positions of power and influence, what better power and influence is there than the press, the media, teachers, lawyers and now the white house.

They’ve been doing this for generations, they went back underground after Wilson with a new name liberal .

They have now targeted the churches, military and boy scouts,
The boy scouts they failed and tried to close them down.
The military and the churches are now being attacked.

Of course they never come out publicly what they are or what they are doing,.
It’s like islam, come as a moderate , keep it quiet but pass laws and their agenda step by step.
Homosexuals are a prime example and sadly some conservatives or so called are falling for it by saying “well I know one and he is nice”

“unexpected” lack of experience or deliberate, intentional nefarious planning?

The other 22% are disappointed that Obama hasn’t imposed Sharia Law, yet.

Or that he hasn't been slaughtering lambs and cows inside the White House to mark Eid-Al-Adha.

The other 22% are also wondering why they don't hear the prettiest sound on earth - the muslim call to prayer at sunset, coming from the White House.

Allāhu akbar, Allāhu akbar, Allāhu akbar الله أكبر الله أكبر الله أكبر lā ilāha illā Allāh لا إله إلا الله Allāhu akbar, Allāhu akbar الله أكبر الله أكبر wa li-illāhil-ḥamd ولله الحمد

Allah is the Greatest, Allah is the Greatest, Allah is the Greatest, There is no deity but Allah Allah is the Greatest, Allah is the Greatest and to Allah goes all praise

Most do not believe he is a muslim. But it’s obvious 78% of the muslims believe he’s a muslim. Since they know more about islam than most, I’ll take their word for it.

He’s America’s first Muslim-African president.

He’ll not only be the last, but he’ll be the one who has set the advancements made by Negroes back a century.

Who could trust ir admire a clique that went for this evil, America-hating rat by 95%?

The left found kindered spirts in islam plus tens billions in financial backing. The USSR was no threat compared to what we have now.

All helped 24x7 by the five TV networks - add Bloomberg’s for 6. It is all about Mid East endless piles of money.

Idiots in America are paying for their own slaver/dhiminitide each month with their cable/sat TV bill.

And the media ignored that Wright (I hate to use Rev.) was a muslim. I believe he still is, just as Obama is. The whole “duck” thing.

My questions:

1. How many Muslims (%) believe that he is a Muslim?

2. Where was he baptized if as he says he is a Christian? (The media's fantasy is that he is Christian I suspect they would want to know.)

3. Why did he not attend the “Day of Prayer” event this year.

4. What major Christian events did he observe? (We have been told his children don't receive Christmas presents.)

“He’ll not only be the last, but he’ll be the one who has set the advancements made by Negroes back a century.”

This is what I said at the beginning of this bum’s endless vacations. Instead of opening doors, he is slamming them shut for black politicians who are capable of doing a good job. When breaking through social and political barriers, it is best to deliver something better than jive-time, commie-mush, PC, American hating horse crap.

I noticed the same thing you did. Somehow Mormons aren’t as blind as the other groups. I really wonder why.
