Video: No, Obama didn’t “admit” to being a Muslim on ABC
hotair ^ | Allahpundit

Posted on 09/07/2008 12:46:16 PM PDT by flyfree

Within 10 minutes of this airing we’d already gotten four or five e-mails about it; 20 minutes later, a bowdlerized version had already hit YouTube and begun circulating. I despise lefty sites for twisting conservatives’ words by selectively editing clips, so let’s cut this one off at the pass before it gets going. Here’s the full exchange with Stephanopoulos, making it perfectly clear that when he says “my Muslim faith” he’s referring to how the people smearing him see him, not how he sees himself. No mas, please.

He was admitting that he was wrong to blame McCain for spreading rumors about his “muslim faith”. He only repeated “Christian Faith” because George worked so hard to “fix it” for him. THen Obama explained he was just saying McCain didn’t bring it up.

The point is that Obama has been falsely implying that McCain was attacking him for various things, one being that he is a muslim, and he had to admit to George that McCain had nothing to do with that.

He’s a muslim. He’s hiding that

He is an atheist if anything but he is no muslim except in name only.

I think he was referring to Dan Quayle’s “raking over the coals” when he didn’t spell the potato correctly. When the MSM learned of this, they destroyed his political career over it and it was suppose to be “breaking news”. So after that debacle, whatever the LEFT does is FAIR GAME to me as well.

Doesn’t matter what BO meant to say.

He will now be on defensive trying to explain and explain.

More than likely digging a deeper and deeper hole for himself.

Darn. I didn’t get the memo prior to sending it off to 26 Reagan Democrats.

Aw shucks. My bad.

Oddly, DUers disagree with you.

They are quite distraught over his snafu.

Well, I’m at work and showed my supervisor, who WAS on the fence, the video, and he told me, after watching it 3 or 4 times, that he is voting McCain.

I realize that... but we are talking about an unconscious slip that let us view into who he really is... and there is no denying that at all. Oh, you can deny anything... but to quote osamabama... “words have meanings” and “my muslim faith” means exactly that. Any other explanation is just spinning the facts to rationalize.

But, Hussein Obama is a Harvard educated genius, editor of the Law Review, a Community Organizer, married to a $300,000 charity worker (who hates America), the greatest Orator since Mark Anthony, he who NEVER makes a mistake.

This is not like he said something stupid like not knowing how many houses his wife has. Then the opposition making a campaign commercial over it.

Making a gaffe, like this, when a lot of people have a problem with the church he goes to. Which reinforces that image of him is beyond just a gaffe. This is truly STUPID.

I actually think it was when he was visiting a school, and there was a spelling bee going on, and the kid spelled the word correctly then Mr.Quayle told him it was “potatoe”. Don’t qoute me, that was so long ago, and I am lazy at the moment to research it.

It took Stephanopoulos to correct him

Just imagine if he didn't have the willing Obama-Media-Corps on 24 hour alert to explain away all of his Freudian slips, stupid and ignorant statements and factual errors.

It’s true. I read somewhere on FR that there are 57 muslim states and he slipped. I don’t know if that’s true though.

hahaha...if you read down the page you come to a post that claims McCain wants to veto your beer and the poster tells us he is "series" could it be an undercover freeper speaking in a code we will all understand.

AM I blowing his cover by posting this?

ummmm.....nevermind
