Is Obama making gaffes due to Ramadan fasting? (vanity)

Posted on 09/09/2008 10:47:43 PM PDT by jddqr

Crossposting from another thread...

The Muslim observance of Ramadan started on Sept 2, and lasts until Oct 1. Muslims are bound to fast from both food AND drink during daylight hours.

I'm just wondering if Obama is making all of these major-league gaffes lately because he is fatigued from fasting?? The timeline makes sense, since he has been gaffe-crazy since about that date.

Has anyone seen Obama eating or drinking in public during daylight hours???

Then allow me to encourage Obambi that true moslems fast for 60 days. Only 58 more to go.

Please. Can we give this up? There are valid reasons to criticize Obama- he is way too far to the left for this country. But this Muslim thing is distracting from the message. Leftism is Obama’s religion, not Islam.

Obama, because of his mission is granted certain indulgences in order to insure his success. Right?(Wink)

Just to be clear, I have no beef with the man if he is Muslim or Christian or whatever religion he chooses to practice. But if he is lying about it, that’s another story...

He is getting whacked by his own action. The sign of a pure amateur!

Video would suggest that Obama is lying about not being a Muslim...

Perhaps he’s not a Muslim. However, in one of his two books he writes that he will support Islam if Islam is attacked - words written after the attacks against this country on 9/11/01. If he’s not a Muslim, he supports their causes.

It’s not Ramadan; it’s competition. He’s actually running against a decent opponent.

Not good news for Dems...great news for the U.S., though!

naaa he always slips when he’s not scripted. So does Biden and he’s catholic.

Obama is not a muslim but he sympathizes with those muslims (and christians and atheists) who hate America and Israel. That’s the point we need to make.

The only god Obama Muad’Dib worships is the one he sees every time he looks in a mirror. No, he is making gaffes because he is not nearly as clever as he thinks he is.

I obama seems famished as of late, it’s because no food is getting past the foot he seems to have wedged in his mouth.

I gotta concur - he last practiced his dad's religion when his stepdad regularly took to mosque in Jakarta at age 10.

It's mere coincidence Bill Ayers was simultaneously bombing the Pentagon.... building a reputation BH0 would embrace.

In his book he talk about how he was playing around in grade school during his Quran studies class.

The ones I have known- mostly Turks- tend to make up for the daylight fast with a little nighttime gluttony.
