Clinton slams Trump for not challenging questioner who called Obama a Muslim
Washington Post ^ | 09/18/2015 | John Wagner

DURHAM, N.H. -- Democratic presidential hopeful Hillary Rodham on Friday denounced Republican front-runner Donald Trump for not challenging an audience member in a rally Thursday night who said that President Obama is Muslim and "not even an American."

“I was appalled,” Clinton told reporters following an appearance at the University Of New Hampshire. "He should have from the beginning repudiated that kind of rhetoric, that level of hatefulness in a questioner in an audience that he was appearing before."

Clinton said had she been in Trump’s place, she would have “called out” the questioner. “That has no place in political discussion,” she said, adding that the assertions were “totally factually untrue.”

From Twitchy....

So this is interesting. Greg Gutfeld, Chris Hayes and Laura Ingraham are all asking the same questions about the guy at Donald Trump’s town hall event in New Hampshire who called President Obama a Muslim: who was he was he a plant?

Good questions.

One theory banging around Twitter right now is that the questioner was “Bill from White Plains,” a longtime caller into the Don Imus show:

We’ll update as soon as we know more.

It sure is. And I wonder why the libs take offense at our suggestions that B. Hussein might be a muslim?

After all - they are the greatest culture in the world. They are placed in great honor over and above all other races and cultures.

Would a white/hispanic/even a black kid who built a bomb looking “clock” get an invite to the White Mosque?

Persons questioning Obama’s being a Muslim need only go back to his start up days in Illinois when he openly admitted such was his standing. If one wants even more background they should research mama Stanley Ann’s connections to the SE Asian Muslims.

Trump let the man express his opinion. He listened. And the media get advisors to Romney and McCain in to say how their candidates would've handled a politically incorrect question.

How did that work out for them?

I'm thinking since almost everyone outside the elite worries about concentrations of populations that don't assimilate, Trump scored a lot of points by listening and seriously considering the comments.

The beltway insiders hate the people - they think of them as stupid cattle who don't know any better.

Trump treats people like a business man treats his customers - they are always right.

About one third of the people in the US think 0 is Muslim. If Obama can’t convince Americans he’s not a moslem then it certainly isn’t Trump’s job to do so.

What’s to question? He’s been advancing the islamonazi destroy-America and destroy-Christianity agenda every day for over six years already

Back to the first line of the article — has Hillary dumped her philandering hubbie?

Why would he be a shill or some plant from the GOP-e?

As I understand it - the crowd went nutz! when that comment was made. This “shill” ought to be on Trump’s campaign trail.

I know I agree with his sentiments.

It sounds to me like the MSM, Hillary and the Democrats might have a problem with Muslims. They sure seem offended that their president was identified by an unknown nobody as a Muslim. Kinda like being called a black person, we know most of them would rather poop oversize jacks than be called a ......black.

That said, if Trump apologizes, I am finished with him.

I’d rather be tasked with persuading people that bozo is a Muslim than that he isn’t (if ease of labor is the prime consideration). His words are nothing to his acts.

He may or may not be a Muslim. There’s no way he’s a Christian however. and either way, he has been waging a campaign against Christianity and he’s the least American president we have ever had.
