With friends like Obama, who needs enemies?

Ofail’s Gitmo Geniuses have announced a plan to pay the tropical island paradise nation of Palau — also, by the way, a popular worldwide tourist destination — $200 million in taxpayer dollars in exchange for Palau agreeing to accept 17 Uighur terrorists from the Cuban detention base.

The Al-Qaeda-trained terrorists will be sent to a tourist island so that they can get the cash — nearly $12 mil per fanatic jihadist –  and so that the US won’t back out of a treaty which guarantees their protection.  (Source.)

In his apology speech to the Muslim world this morning, Barack Hussein Obama, who now brags about freely admits that his family is Muslim, talked about the huge role Islam has played in the history of our country.  Huge.  Really.  Here’s a quote from Ofail’s address:

I know, too, that Islam has always been a part of America’s story. The first nation to recognize my country was Morocco. In signing the Treaty of Tripoli in 1796, our second President John Adams wrote, The United States has in itself no character of enmity against the laws, religion or tranquility of Muslims. And since our founding, American Muslims have enriched the United States. They have fought in our wars, served in government, stood for civil rights, started businesses, taught at our Universities, excelled in our sports arenas, won Nobel Prizes, built our tallest building, and lit the Olympic Torch. And when the first Muslim-American was recently elected to Congress, he took the oath to defend our Constitution using the same Holy Quran that one of our Founding Fathers – Thomas Jefferson – kept in his personal library.

Wow, you’re right.  Let’s see: a Muslim country recognized our existence, which I guess is noble considering Iran refusing to recognize Israel’s right to exist.  And after 200 years, in this powerful, largely Muslim nation, we finally elected our one and only Muslim to Congress.  One, in two hundred plus years.  So yeah, Muslims have been a HUGE part of the US history.

Wait, don’t forget this one:  on 9/11/2009 they launched an attack on our nation, on our soil, taking the lives of over 3,000 innocent people.  Muslims are part of our history that way too.

This comes after his interview where he talked about America is now a global Muslim powerhouse.

You remember the “Fight the Smears” website that was put together to help Ofail dupe the nation into electing him, right?  The one were “smears” from concerned citizens were “debunked” with “facts”.

One of those “smears” was the statement that Obama’s father is a Muslim.  Something that, if true, he should be proud to claim, since he’s such a multiculturalist.  But on Fight the Smears, they instead wrote:

“Barack” is the candidate’s Kenyan father’s name; Obama’s middle name, “Hussein,” is his grandfather’s name. Obama has described his father as atheist or agnostic.

But in a blog post from ABC News’s Jake Tapper, Tapper reports:

During a conference call in preparation for President Obama’s trip to Cairo, Egypt, where he will address the Muslim world, deputy National Security Adviser for Strategic Communications Denis McDonough said “the President himself experienced Islam on three continents before he was able to — or before he’s been able to visit, really, the heart of the Islamic world — you know, growing up in Indonesia, having a Muslim father – obviously Muslim Americans (are) a key part of Illinois and Chicago.”

In the past, the MSM also followed the campaign’s lead and reported that his Kenyan grandmother was a Christian.

Now we find out that his “Christian” grandmother will be making a The Hajj (pilgrimage to Mecca).  The Hajj is the largest annual pilgrimage in the world and called  “the fifth pillar of Islam” making it an obligation for every able-bodied Muslim to do in their life.  However, it’s not exactly something “Christians” bend over backwards to do…
She just might be the first Christian to attend the Hajj in years.

I’ve got this degree now, I’d probably better get my facts straight.  Naaaahhhh!

Huh?  In an interview with Laura Haim on Canal Plus, a French television station, Obama noted that the United States also could be considered as “one of the largest Muslim countries in the world.”

Let’s do some math here.  According to the 2007 Pew Forum on Religion and Public Life, just 0.6% of American’s consider themselves Muslim.  Our population is 306 million, making the Muslim population about 1.8 million.

According to data on Wikipedia (crunched from several sources) that would put America at 59th in terms of pure population.  We fall to about 120th on the list of the world’s countries if you look at Muslims as a percentage of the larger population.

So, how exactly did he come to this conclusion about the US being such a world powerhouse of Islam?  Who knows.  (Unless it has something to do with him finally admitting that his father and grandmother — at a minimum — were, in fact, Muslim.)

In the middle of his 75 minute commercial for infanticide delivered at the formerly Catholic Notre Dame, Obortion took a few minutes to plug the Muslim religion:

“For if there is one law that we can be most certain of, it is the law that binds people of all faiths and no faith together. It is no coincidence that it exists in Christianity and Judaism; in Islam and Hinduism; in Buddhism and humanism. It is, of course, the golden rule – the call to treat one another as we wish to be treated. The call to love.”

Of course, this is a pretty big stretch.  As I recall it, Christians are told to love one another as I have loved you.  We’re instructed to love our neighbors, where “our neighbors” are any people we meet in our lives.  Muslims, on the other hand, has nuggets such as this in the Koran:  “Muhammad is the messenger of Allah. And those with him are hard against the disbelievers and merciful among themselves.”  Not exactly loving.

But we know where Ofail stands.  Recall that he has, in the past, faithfully recited the shahada — the Muslim prayer of commitment to Islam — which is a prayer that simply reciting makes you Muslim.  His path is stealthy, but his goals are clear.  Beware.
