In a video posted on YouTube by audience members at the concert, the singer delivers a rousing, profanity-laced political speech on freedom during her show.
"Now, it's so amazing and incredible to think that we have an African-American in the White House ... we have a black Muslim in the White House ... it means there is hope in this country, and Obama is fighting for gay rights, so support the man," Madonna said.

Obvious is not “ironic.”
Somebody wrote Obama on that dead fish.
Confuesd? Well, now I am. Why would anyone think he isn't a Muslim?
As Archie would say....“Edith”, “stiffle yourself“....
She is very smart (the mother of mixed messages) AND a dedicated Kaballist voting for gay marriage (fans who pay the bills...lol) NOT Islamic law.
That would be “Esther” as in the Biblical entity, of course...
