Obama Thanks Muslims For ‘Building The Very Fabric of Our Nation’

By Cheryl K. Chumley-

President Obama and his wife sent out a joint statement to Muslims in America for the Eid-al-Fitr holiday, thanking them for their contributions in “building the fabric” of the country.

The statement, as posted on the White House website, reads in part: “As Muslims throughout the United States and around the world celebrate Eid-al-Fitr, Michelle and I extend our warmest wishes to them and their families. … [The holiday] celebrates the common values that unite us in our humanity and reinforces the obligations that people of all faiths have to each other, especially those impacted by poverty, conflict and disease.”

They didn't build any, but they are certainly responsible for the building of all 9/11 memorials.

Just reading the headline had me in a fury! The founding fathers would NOT be pleased!

Reading the transcript ( as far as I could stand to )and seeing that it relates to the holiday calms me...a tiny bit. At least enough to save the “puter” from a swim in the ocean! LOL

The more he talks, the more foolish and ignorant he sounds.

The original national debt. After the revolution and before the Navy, bribes to muslim pirates was the largest budget item by far.

Mosques, so they have a place to go to plot their terrorist activities against us. It’s past time to round up all muslims and ship ‘em out including the #1 muzzie in the country

If I remember correctly, the first moslems came here around 1890s and settled in the mid west. They were no problem but did not build our nation as “O” claims.

I’ve been hearing little bammy is losing/has lost a lot of weight.

Last week he was making direct threats to several State Governors, Perry, Haley, etc.

Not one at a time but together as a group so it is not like it is bammy’s word against whomever.

His little phone conversation with PM Netanyahu turns out to be real, not a fabrication...

Now this.

Is he on drugs or just sprinting a little further “`round the bend?”

Both?”

He’s referring to the new nation in the new world order where everything is unicorns and fuzzy bunnys until someone gets beheaded.

In 1786, John Adams and Thomas Jefferson met with Arab diplomats from Tunisia, who were conducting terror raids and piracy against American ships (Barbary Pirates). Writing to John Jay, Thomas Jefferson described what he saw as the main issue and the reason why they were attacking Americans who had done them no harm. The following quote is from Thomas Jefferson....

“We took the liberty to make some inquiries concerning the Grounds of their pretensions to make war upon a Nation who had done them no Injury, and observed that we considered all mankind as our Friends who had done us no wrong, nor had given us any provocation. THE AMBASSADOR ANSWERED US THAT IT WAS FOUNDED ON THE LAWS OF THEIR PROPHET, THAT IT WAS WRITTEN IN THEIR KORAN, THAT ALL NATIONS WHO SHOULD NOT HAVE ACKNOWLEDGED THEIR AUTHORITY WERE SINNERS, THAT IT WAS THEIR RIGHT AND DUTY TO MAKE WAR UPON THEM WHEREVER THEY COULD BE FOUND, AND TO MAKE SLAVES OF ALL THEY COULD TAKE AS PRISONERS, AND THAT EVERY MUSSELMAN (MUSLIM) WHO SHOULD BE SLAIN IN BATTLE WAS SURE TO GO TO PARADISE”

So, tell Americans that “You didn’t build that” and then tell Muslims that they built America. Okaaayyyyyy.
