An Attack That Came Out of the Ether

The Washington Post ^ | June 28, 2008 | Matthew Mosk

The e-mail landed in Danielle Allen's queue one winter morning as she was studying in her office at the Institute for Advanced Study, the renowned haven for some of the nation's most brilliant minds. The missive began: "THIS DEFINITELY WARRANTS LOOKING INTO."

[miele man]

Am not knocking ETL’s FR home page but everything on his page has appeared more than a few times already on FR in various threads on Obama.

[Stentor]

they'll simply believe that the government should pay for your education, health care, and if possible, your housing, and should control the economy.

Those are "the issues" your supposed to discuss. If you reject them as unworthy of discussion, your not "serious".

[mkjessup]

Perhaps they will eventually explain it to me. I'd say it's about 50-50 that this post gets through.

Ring a bell?

Contributing to the conversation is one thing, but spamming the same thing over and over is another.

Maybe if he used different fonts and some different italics, would that help? ;)

ETL means well as I read it, for whatever that's worth (and considering who this is coming from, it could be the kiss of death for poor ETL, if so? Sorry FRiend! LOL).

Odd that Ms. Allen seems to have not noticed Freepers who debunk false or questionable claims or that she couldn’t find the same false stories filling page after page of Huffington Post, Democratic Underground, Moveon.org, DailyKOS and other leftist sites known for spreading much BDS over the past 8 years.

I don't care if he is or was a muslim. What I do care about is that he may have tried to hide that he was a muslim earlier in his life. Sounds like Clinton all over again.

Hussein Onyango Obama(1895-1979) begat Barack Hussein Obama Sr( 1936-1982), who begat Barack Hussein Obama Jr.(born 1961)

Hussein Onyango Obama

Worked as a cook for missionaries then joined the Royal Army during the period of World war I and was stationed in India and the Middle East. He converted from Christianity to Islam in Zanzibar. ( or as some call the missionaries..the white oppressors)

Hussein is an Arab name...

What I find somewhat interesting, we learn Ms. Allen works for the "Institute for Advanced Study, the renowned haven for some of the nation's most brilliant minds", has two doctorates and won a $500,000 "genius" award. Now, one would naturally assume such a person would be quite intelligent yet, for some reason, the author feels obligated to tell us Ms. Allen is "razor sharp". Isn't it possible some might see this as a subtle variation of the term "articulate"?

[retrokitten]

And why does the left even care?? Aren’t they supposed to be the party that’s all-inclusive that accuses us of being elitist?

Why does it even matter to them that people say he is/was/might be a muslim?

[McGruff]

Wow! Interesting!” Lynch gasped.

“This guy could easily be the Muslim Manchurian candidate,” Howard said.

Oh my. This sounds hugh and series McGruff blurted out.

Funny, with all their their education and privilege all the educated elite of the country has to offer
is Jane Fonda's prayer of Communism.....
It has worked so well for N.Korea and Cuba after all....

Obama, as a U.S. Senator in 2006, campaigned openly in a Muslim foreign Country named Kenya for the Election of a known Muslim Extremist named Orindinga to be elected to the presidency of Kenya. This Madman would not have allowed Obama, his cousin, campaign for him if he believed Obama was a Christian. Campaigning in a foreign election is highly illegal for any U.S. Citizen, let alone a U.S. Senator!! unless of course one is a Demorat U.S. Senator campaigning for Islamic Terrorists!

MD4Bush two! Another hit job by Mosk.

FYI

[gitmo]

Her eyes fell on this untrue sentence: “ALSO, keep in mind that when he was sworn into office he DID NOT use the Holy Bible, but instead the Kuran (Their equivalency to our Bible, but very different beliefs).” The use of “their equivalency” and the spelling of “Kuran” instead of “Koran” made the sentence her point of departure. That search showed that the first mention of the e-mail on the Internet had come more than a year earlier. A participant on the conservative Web site FreeRepublic.com posted a copy of the e-mail on Jan. 8, 2007, and added this line at the end: “Don’t know who the original author is, but this email should be sent out to family and friends.”

Funny. Google does not give a hit on that phrase except those posting this article.

[gitmo]

Never mind. Found it. Here I remember that thread.

[b_sharp]

I find it interesting that these types of articles always say that the rumor and innuendo has been refuted or debunked by the mainstream press, yet I never see any credible analysis or detailed refutation. It's like Obama's "fight the smears" site which simply says that Claim X is untrue and, presto, it is so because they said so.

Can I take this as a claim you have the type of evidence you demand from Obama that verifies the rumor and innuendo?

Perhaps if you present this evidence we can accept you as an authority on the subject of his belief system. Until then your complaint is empty.

Bernard Marx wrote: That's my point. I believe the Swifties who were there and I contributed to their effort to unmask Kerry. He's been living an offensive lie since the Sixties.

Well you know that "smear" is just another word for "Racist attack" in the Obama campaign playbook ?

[neverdem]

BTTT!

[imintrouble]

While the strawman diversion of Obama’s faith obfuscation is interesting, in the interest of freedom of religion there is little we can do unless he is honest with the people

More important if the issue of his rightful birth regarding his campaigning for the Presidency.

Where is his true birthplace and under what circumstances was he born in the State of Hawaii to an ineligible female?

And why do his people not clear that very very simple issue - with a sworn affidavit of authenticity by the State of Hawaii.

At this moment in time his religion matters less than his right to the Presidency.

Was Barack Obama born in the United States of America to an American mother of legal age?

PLEASE READ THIS SITE Posted Above about OB being a Muslim in U.S. Muslim eyes and why didn’t PLUGS BIDEN who was at the Cnference correct the Muslim leadership that Obama is really a Christian and “NEVER WAS A MUSLIM” according to Obama! PLUGS BIDEN CONFIRMS TODAY BY HIS ACTIONS THAT OBAMA REALLY IS A MUSLIM IN HIDING!
