"Well, what I'm saying is he hasn't suggested that I'm Muslim."
I mean, good god, it's the next bloody sentence.
This reminds me of a quote by Thomas Pynchon. "If they can get you asking the wrong questions, they don't have to worry about answers,"
yeah ok, that's a load of shit and you know it...i'm sure stephi was just trying to trip him up... hillary was the one floating the "secret muslim" rumors awhile back, maybe stephi is really (still) just a clinton agent. And if he really is a muslim, why the cover-up and denial?
if sarah palin came out and said "they won't stop asking me about my scientology beliefs", or if bob barr came out and said "they keep bugging me about my KKK affiliations", no matter what was said after that to cover it up; it would be on the front-page of every newspaper tomorrow morning...
you know it, and i know it...
I can't wait for the debates, this guy is a joke without a teleprompter in front of him...
Q: What do Osama and Obama have in common???
A: They both have a friend that blew up the Pentagon!
Come on, it seems a bit far-fetched to take this too far and proclaim that there is some sort of a secret Obama-Muslim conspiracy at work here. It was most likely a screw-up. It happens; trust me, many candidates, Democrat and Republican alike, have made stupid mistakes and said things much worse in the past. Besides, do you not remember his whole issue with his long-term Christian pastor at the church in Chicago where people watched him and his family go for years??
And I'm not saying this because I'm in love with Obama. I'm not star-struck with either candidate, and I'd say the same thing if it had been McCain. If he's really Muslim, I need more evidence. And frankly, if he was, I wouldn't personally care. But if you're going to seriously take this and run with it, then I'd suggest that you're probably too biased for your own good.
Come on, you don't know that he is necessarily Muslim from that. Do you not remember his whole issue with his long-term Christian pastor?
It was most likely a screw-up. It happens; both Democrat and Republican candidates have inadvertently said things much worse in the past. I'd say the same thing if it had been McCain in that seat. If you're going to seriously take this and run with it, then I'd suggest that you're way to blindly biased for your own good.
c'mon really ???
my orginal post said "so obama sticks his foot in his mouth, lets see if the media calls him out on it..."
i could care less whether he was muslim or not, i won't vote for him... i don't even care that he may or may not have slipped up... he couls have said that he worships satan or xenu, i don't give a shit.. what i do care about, is the fact that this will be ignored by much of the unbiased(?) media... while at the same time every little bullshit thing that the republican VP candidate has done since she was born is being blown completely out of proportion.
you all can keep turning this around, and point the finger at me... suggesting that I'm making a big deal out of nothing... that doesn't change the fact that he slipped up... I want to see the damage control and the media reaction, and I can guarantee that the media reaction would not be same if a republican had screwed up like this...
like i said before, just wait till debate time... then we'll all get a good look at just how "qualified" he really is...

you're the one suggesting someone was trying to trip him up, with your little quote...
"If they can get you asking the wrong questions, they don't have to worry about answers,"
who was asking the wrong questions; and furthermore, what wrong questions?
wtf ???
If the republicans get the american people asking the wrong questions, republicans won't have to worry about the answers. prey on people's xenophobic, racist, and sexist tendencies the right way, and they'll stop caring about the important issues like Iran, the economy, taxation, business, civil liberties.
that aside, you clearly don't know stephi's resume.
you could put an Emfire release on for 2 minutes and you would be a sleep before it finishes - Chunky
it's RA. they'd blow their load all over some stupid 20 minute loop of a snare if it had a quirky flange setting. - Tiddles

I'm well aware of his resume, which has nothing to do with this discussion, and neither does your unrelated quote, nor your ridiculous assumptions & your insults directed at me...
he fucked up, that's all there is to it... why you choose to consistently defend him is your business... i don't give a shit...
you are indeed the George Onyango of the political forum

and yet, you want every media outlet to pick this up. you want the media to call him out for 'slipping up' and correcting himself (the video which you posted does not even give context to what was actually being said). that's genius there. I'm convinced your right!
stupid liberal media not picking this up. buncha commies

This thread sets a new high water mark for absurdity, IMO.
88, you're giving this dude too much credit even debating this as if it's a point that is up for legitimate discussion. You're 100% right, and the only people that view this as a real issue are those that have a preconceived belief that Obama is a stealth terrorist and are looking for something to validate that bizarre belief.
Oh, and BTW, k3n3, that's why the media isn't jumping all over this. It's fucking bonkers, not worthy of the time of any legitimate news organization.
Anyone remember the much-maligned green background from McCain's speech in New Orleans the night Obama became the presumptive nominee?
The press was all over McCain for how bad it made McCain look, and Stephen Colbert had an absolute field day with it with his Green Screen Challenge (http://www.colbertnation
yawn... more obama hypocrisy...
