Posted on 11/25/2010 9:06:15 AM PST by Free ThinkerNY

Barack Obama's Kenyan grandmother has said she prayed for the US president to convert to Islam, according to reports.

Sarah Omar, 88, who was on hajj pilgrimage to Mecca, told the Al-Qatan Saudi daily: "I prayed for my grandson Barack to convert to Islam".

The paper said that Ms Omar was in Saudi Arabia on pilgrimage along with her son, Mr Obama's uncle Saeed Hussein Obama, and four of her grandchildren.

Ms Omar told the newspaper that she could only discuss hajj matters and would not comment on Mr Obama's politics.

My thought too. Is it convert or return.

He was raised in Islamic households, except grandparents I’m guessing, during his ‘formative’ years.

They didn’t let Obama’s grandmother loose until she had been very thoroughly instructed what to say to the press.

Well before the 2008 election, she told the press that her whole family was Muslim. Then, in 2008 when Obama was running, she told the press that, well, actually they were all Christian. Then for several months she was under apparent house arrest, and there were no interviews. Then, around the time of the inauguration, there were brief stories that she was going on the Haj.

Now it seems that her whole family is Muslim again. Except, of course, for Obama. I think she got the story straight this time, but I imagine they will still confine her to her house and prevent further interviews until the next convenient moment.

And the press will do what they are told.

"...Barack Obama's Kenyan grandmother has said she prayed for the US president to convert to Islam..."

Well, if you suppose for a moment (which I don't) that 0 isn't a muzzi, doesn't that make him an Infidel just like the rest of us?

And then doesn't that mean that 0's granny and uncle along with the rest of the scummy muzzi family of his are under orders by the R.O.P. to knock 0's ass off if they get the chance?

I'm having some difficulty finding a problem here...

Today is a day of thanks for what we have in our country so I will refrain from commenting on the “Committed Christian.” Ah what the heck I can’t help myself from thinking that he should be committed somewhere.

Muslims believe that all of us were muslims & we merely return to islam rather than convert.

To return to islam, BHO would have to place another God above himself—not sure he’s willing to try that.
