Journalists need to do more than call the play-by-play this election cycle. We also need to blow the whistle on egregious fouls calculated to undermine the political process (like trying to link Barry to the Rev. Wright) and magnify the ugliest prejudices that our nation has done so much to overcome (like the religious bigotry of voting against someone why you think might be on Satan's side).

Anyone who votes for a baby murdering Marxist cannot be a Christian!

He does have a Muslim name and he attends a racist church. Is there anything more we need to know about Barack Hussein Obama? Seriously!

half of Americans correctly know that Mr. Obama is a Christian.

He may not be strictly a Muslim, but he's definitely not a Christian either.

And does someone who knows the Shahada - the Muslim confession of faith by heart in Arabic - how much of a Christian is he really? That's as related by what Obama told Kristof!

the political campaign to transform Mr. Obama into a Muslim is succeeding

Funny! No one suggests that Biden is a Muslim.

Almost one-third of voters “know” that Barack Obama is a Muslim or believe that he could be.

That would be me. Not that it matters. There are a thousand other reasons I won't vote for him.

But it’s perfectly acceptable to portray Sarah Palin as a moose-hunting, book-burning, Nazi-sympathizing “other”.

The problem for Obama isn't that people are concluding that he is Muslim, but rather that after a good look at his church of 20 years, people are concluding that he isn't Christian.

Well, the author never came right out and denied that Barak Husein Obama is the Anti-Christ.

A Pew Research Center survey released a few days ago found that only half of Americans correctly know that Mr. Obama is a Christian. Meanwhile, 13 percent of registered voters say that he is a Muslim, compared with 12 percent in June and 10 percent in March.

They admitted that fact? HOLY COW!

Start with the Muslim world... ask any of them if 0bama is a muslim and the vast majority of them will tell you that he is muslim because he was born of a muslim father.
His “outward” actions reveal that he does NOT hold to the teachings of Christ. He supports the killing of unborn children. He was a member of an organization that claimed to be a “Christian Church.” However, it was discovered that this so called Christian Church was a pro-black racist organization that had little to do with the teachings of the historical Jesus of the bible. The Jesus of the bible did not regard the color of a persons skin as a qualification to entering the Kingdom of God.

He may be many things, but he’s not a Christian. He’s probably not an orthodox Muslim, either, but subscribes to that peculiar mix of Islam and black power ideology that floats through the African-American community. This is true even though he’s not even a legitimate part of the “African American community,” but is just hitching his star to it because it has become the favorite prop of the extreme left.

Incidentally, on the website of his “church,” it says - or did say earlier - that Muslims are welcome to attend. Some “church”! The pastor, Wright, is also a former Black Muslim who decided the pickings were better by setting himself up as an independent “church.”

If obama is a Christian, I still won’t vote for him.

It’s his views and where he stands on issues that I am concerned about.

And I am not a racist because he is black and I am white and I don’t vote for him.

Obama is NOT a Christian. He facilitates the killing of unborn babies.

Babies are not terrorists. They never started a war...so killing them is NOT self-defense.

Additionally, Obama and his 20 year church have more in common with radical Islam than not. They hate Whites, Christians, Catholics, and Jews.

Obama supported Odinga in Kenya. Odinga lost the presidential election but Obama was instrumental in getting Odinga the Prime Minister post. Odinga signed an agreement with radical Islam before the election. When he lost the election 1000 Christians were killed and their churches were burned in the radical Islamic violence.

So, do any of you lurkers want this scene played out in the USA? If so, then that maggot Obama is your guy and the blood will be on your hands.

End...

When I’ve traveled around the country, particularly to my childhood home in rural Oregon, I’ve been struck by the number of people who ask something like: That Obama — is he really a Christian?

Why do I doubt the veracity of this statement. Well, for one, it come from the Times. And why would people walk up to this author and state such a question. Is the author some kind of expert? I suppose in his own mind, he is; it certainly shines through in his condescending tone.

How often do you accidentally refer to your ‘muslim faith’ when discussing religion with somebody (as Obama did on ABC TV)?
