An Iowa Republican focus group ripped Obama over his handling of the Egyptian crisis. Nearly half of the focus group members believed that Obama was acting against the interests of the United States because he was a Muslim. The other half believed he was a committed liberal.
They all agreed his presidency was a disaster.

What a lovely crowd, so informed and articulate.
Stay the same for 2012 elections Iowans , its important really
Sonya commented:
Obama was born and raised Muslim. That is a fact. He is Muslim according to Islamic Law.
I do not think he believes in any god except himself, but culturally he is Muslim. Remember the “prettiest sound on Earth” is a call for Muslim prayer?

What do you want to hear? If you are Christian, then I’m one too. If you’re Muslim, hey me too. Buddhist, yup.
Old One commented:
The Obamination somehow is unaware of the adage “”.You lie down with dogs you get up with fleas’. Ovomit is inhabited with the fleas of islamofascism and liberal fascist statism and many of us have figured those realities out.
Jim commented:
There are only three choices categorizing Obama’s faith;
1.) He’s a Muslim, born to a Muslim father, raised by a Muslim step-father in a Islamic nation, and upon going to college his choice of friends were Muslims e.g. Chandoo Brothers, Sohale Siddiqi, Khalid Al-Mansour, et al. And Obama’s lying about his true faith.
2.) He’s a Christian, albeit of the heretical Black Liberation theology brand of Christianity who spent 20+ years in a Black Liberation church with his wife and children listening to a ‘pastor’ who earned his M. Div. in Islamic theology, preach his perverted fusion of Marxism, Christianity, and hate against American society and incite class warfare.
3.) He truly believes that he mix and reconcile Islam and Christian into an even more bizarre bastardization of Islam and Christianity. He wouldn’t be the first to believe that he can mix Islam and Christianity. Ann Holmes Redding, a former Episcopal priest was defrocked for believing she could be a practicing Muslim and Christian simultaneously.
From everything I’ve seen, I believe #3 is the most likely, but I wouldn’t be surprised a year or two after leaving the presidency(in 2012 God willing!!!) that the MSM documents Obama’s pilgrimage to Mecca as a Muslim.
I’m willing to bet Michelle, Sasha, and Malia won’t be going on with him on that vacation.

Who cares why he does what he does? Oust him ASAP because he is a living disaster for the whole world.

GRU57 commented:
In 2012, Obama will be re-elected in a landslide victory thanks to massive voter fraud, intimidation, his generational welfare families and assorted thugs and the “guilt-ridden” white liberals who will just not be able to say no to another 4 year-term of The One. And then what are we going to do folks?
This recent MSM activity comparing obama to my beloved Ronald Reagan is absolutely stupifying to me. There is ZERO comparison between the two.
Stick a fork in us as a Nation and a State. We’re done.
gus commented:
Oh dear no. The MSM, is doing a fine job.
Who were Obama’s Mommy and Daddy’s (plural). ANSWER: His 3 PARENTS were all COMMUNISTS. His Mommy was too. BOTH HIS DADDIES were MUZZTARDS.
Let’s review. ALL 3 PARENTS COMMIE. 2 DADDIES MUZZTARD.
What has Opie the NOT MUSLIM dimwit, said about IZZZLAM??
“The Muzztard call to prayer is one of the most beautiful sounds”
LETS REVIEW AGAIN. Mommy ruts with 2 MUZZTARDS. Boy has 2 MUZZTARD DADDY’S, both COMMIE and A COMMIE WHORE MOMMY. Upbringing is COMPLETELY disjointed WITH BOTH COMMIE MUZZTARD DADDY’S and COMMIE WHORE MOM. Abandoning OPIE.
How does OPIE’S upbringing SOUND thus far??? NORMAL??? You tell me.
Commies, Muzztards, whores, abandonment, Izzzlam in Indonesia, call to prayer????????
Brought back to Hawaii and abandoned by MOMMY NOW!!!!!
NOBODY IN THE MEDIA HAS EVER REPORTED WHAT I AM DETAILING. EVER.
2 MUZZTARD COMMIE DADDY’S AND COMMIE WHORE MOMMY….have all ABANDONED OPIE by the age of 10. Opie loves the call to prayer. Opie writes book about the BASTARD MUZZ COMMIE who abandoned him. “DREAMS OF MY COMMIE MUZZTARD KENYAN, POLYGAMIST FATHER”.
Opie then lives with COMMIE Grandparents, who “hook him up”. With FREAK COMMIE PEDOPHILE…Frank Marshall Davis………
How is OPIE’S bio working out thus far peeps??????
gus commented:
Jim. Nice effort friend. And…Good detail work. HOWEVER. Obama’s formation. Obama’s CHARACTER. IS WHO OBAMA IS.
Obama was born to a hippy COMMIE loser, who “ostensiblly” “married” Barack Hussien Opie Sr.
Sorry to be so harsh. Garbage in, garbage out. Opies. SLUT mommy, had a kid. The DADDY, didn’t HANG. Obama’s Mom, made Opie, a rejected kid of a Commie Muzztard Kenyan. Then Opies Commie whore Mommy, made another BAD DECISION vis a vis her own son. She got together with another Commie Muzztard. The ALREADY ABANDONED by his FATHER….Little boy, was thrust into another MUSLIM RELIGIOUS CULTURE. Only to be abandoned again, when MOMMY’S little TET A TET didn’t work out. Commie whore mommy, 2 craptard Commie fuk stick Muzztard daddies. And at the age of 7 or 8. Opie has been the WARD of a LOSER COMMIE WHORE MOMMY, and 2 muzztard Daddies, and has been abandoned by FATHER FIGURES TWICE. Not to mention his entire formative life has been filled with COMMIE and MUZZTARD dysfunction.
Need I continue???
kay commented:
Hah! obviously those Iowans are so wedded to corn/ethanol subsidies they didn’t see the small cups of tea and the hookah pipe Obama has in the White House. Then the headline would be “Nearly half of the focus group members believed that Obama was acting against the interests of the United States because he was a Muslim. The other half believed he was a committed liberal.”
oh, wait, that it is the headline……

Kay. We have a GIGANTIC PROBLEM, if ANY POLITICIAN puts CORN GAS, ahead of AMERICA’S FUTURE.

Tobbs commented:
Lot of diversity in that group.
Fox really embarrassing their Repub base with that segment.
Let me guess- Obama wasn’t born in the US either… harharhar.
Good Work!!!
Guy in Ohio commented:
Tobbs – you just embarrassed yourself.
Meanwhile, too bad the people of Iowa didn’t take Obama’s Muslim background into consideration in the primaries …
gus commented:
Hey Tobbs??? What information is on Obama’s Birth Certificate??
You don’t know do you Tobbs??? Why is that dumb fu**??
gus commented:
Tobbs embarrassed herself by rote. Morons like TOBBS embarrass themselves as often as they breathe. Tobbs?? Why are you afraid of Opie the Kenyan fu** up, BEING REQUIRED as the CONSTITUTION DOES, to PROVIDE PROOF…….as to and OF…..his LEGAL/CONSTITUTIONAL ELIGIBILITY to meet the LEGAL REQUIREMENTS that the OFFICE REQUIRES????
Hell, we all know why. Tobbs?? You know why your BOY OPIE will not provide his Birth Certificate?? Don’t you??? C’mon Tobbs??? You know why Barry Hussein has paid MILLLLLLLLLLLLLIONS to have his RECORDS …………..HIDDEN????
Guy in Ohio commented:
Mainly, tobbs should be embarrassed by the racism … the ignorance on the birth certificate issue is secondary.
Tobbs commented:
Gus,
Obama has not spent millions to hide his records. You and the FAR right make that s**t up with no evidence whatsoever.
In fact, I need to see Bush’s birth certificate. He was probably born in Mexico. src/
You hicks sound so foolish.
Tobbs commented:
Gus,
You and the FAR right keep on keeping on that whole birth certificate path. There’s no evidence of Obama spending any money hiding his birth certificate… because he’s already shown it ya morons!!
In fact, Bush was probably born in Mexico… how come nobody ever needed to see his? /sarc
You hicks, I swear, are getting dumber by the day.
Ignorance is bliss.
Tobbs commented:
GRU57-
Just like the rampant voter fraud in 2000 from Jeb Bush and Katherine Harris in Flori-duh.
What goes around comes around.
gus commented:
Guy. I disagree. I 100% disagree. Though we may not be far apart in concept.
Barack Hussein Obama, or John Q Public are likewise and evenly REQUIRED to adhere to the LEGALS REQUIREMENTS and or STANDARDS…vis a vis/with regard to/or as required to being ELIGIBLE for the OFFICE they INTEND to OCCUPY.
Obama is required by LAW to prove eligibility vis a vis the OFFICE he intends to occupy.
Obama’s CHICAGO THUG MACHINE POLITICAL CAREER has been RIFE with contentious and court required ELIGIBILITY STANDARDS and…………..COURT CHALLENGES by OBAMA.
The VERY DISMISSIVE TACTICS by the LEFT and the HILARIOUS MEDIA, all IGNORE Obama’s own POLITICAL AND LEGAL ACTIONS.
gus commented:
Tobbs, I recognize a pathetic pussy when I see one. Tobbs. You are a pathetic PUSSY.
Tobbs, you bumbling ass-fu**. WHERE IS O-DIMWITS birth certificate???? WHERE IS IT TOBB O’LARD?? Until a pathetic DIMWIT such as your ugly ass pathetic loser self, can answer that. You are a loser.
What’s wrong LOSER?? Tell us LOSER???
Why do sissified morons like you TOBBS, not “get it”. TOBBS. You are a MORON. Pure and Simple TOBBS. You ACCEPT your LOSER BOY KINGS faccsimile. TOBBS you bumbling F**-TWIT, why are you AFRAID of the TRUTH????
TOBBTARD?? Whatever REASON, your sorry ass, accepts ODIMWITS “CERTIFICATE OF LIVE BIRTH” is YOUR PROBLEM TOBBTARD. Obviously, you aren’t SMART ENOUGH to REQUIRE Obama to PROVIDE THAT BIRTH CERTIFICATE.
Why is that TOBBTARD??? Why are you scared??
Marsh626 commented:
Just look at his policies.
He hates Israel and Israel hates him.
He agreed with the muslim voting block in the UN to criminalize criticism of islam as hate speech.
He gave the green light to the muslim brotherhood in Egypt.
His NASA cronies said one of their top priorities is muslim outreach.
His national security apointees banned the use of terrorism and islam in the same sentence and instead renamed them to “man caused disasters”.
The first ever interview he gave uas president was to a muslim TV network.
HE went to Cairo and basically prostrated himself before the muslim world, crediting them with inventions they never made and making up American history, saying muslim played an important role in the founding of our country.
He rarely goes to Church despite saying he’s a devout Christian.
The Churhces he did go to were lead by a marxist communist when he lived in Hawaii and another marxist, black nationalist Church that he chose to go to in Chicago for over 20 years. Obviously he went to those Churches more for ideological reasons than genuine faith.
Both his biological father and step-father were muslims. Which according to islamic practices, automatically makes him a muslim.
He attended islamic schools in Indonesia and was listed as a muslim. he also chose to attend optional classes only for muslims. So clearly he was a muslim in his early years, at least until he was sent to live in Hawaii.
He’s even got caught a couple times saying his religion was islam.

I don’t know if he’s a muslim or not. But it would certainly help explain a lot of his policies.
Ellie Light commented:
Its clear that Obamao is a disaster. I hope he runs in 2012. I’d like to see an epic landslide that buries the progressives.
Patriot Act commented:
I’ve been resisting it since day one, but as time goes by, the more I’m forced to consider that Obama may really be a Muslim practicing taqiyya. I don’t want it to be so, but everything points to it. Everything he does undermines the welfare and security of the United States (and Israel). And everything he does with regard to the Muslim world benefits the radical Islamists. I can’t think of an exception.
If Obama is a Christian, this makes him not only an infidel but also an apostate. So why has there not been a single fatwa issued calling for his death? Do the Imams know something that we don’t? The Islamists express limitless hatred for America, but rarely express any hatred for Obama per se.
Joe College commented:
The problem is not that he is a Muslim. The problem is he is a radical Muslim. The people in the streets of Iran protesting their stolen election were Muslim. The ones whacking them, who stole the election, were radical Muslims.
Terry Gain commented:
Let me guess- Obama wasn’t born in the US either… harharhar.
Good Work!!!
Great post Tobbs. You tell ‘em. In your next comment shove Obama’s birth hospital, hospital room and and attending doctor and nurses up the collective asses of these skeptics.
Oh, wait.
a former democrat commented:
I am not a christian, and while I do not believe Mr. Obama openly practices Islam, he does pratice certain rituals of Islam that the media will never cover but is certainly noticed by muslims in this country and around the world.
He may say he is a christian, but I believe he has much more affinity for Islam than christianity, he seems to use Christianity as a cover.
Even people who I know who are American muslims agree Mr. Obama is not a true christian, that is just a front.
In the video when Mr. Luntz asks the group “do you know what it means that you are saying you think he’s a muslim”, I wonder why no one answered the most obvious item, yes, “that means you will labelled a racist by the Obot media’s footsoldiers.”
DavidD commented:
Hmmm, Muslim or committed liberal. How about both?
Bunni commented:
#29, you nailed it:”Obama may really be a Muslim practicing taqiyya.” & #33 too! It’s all a cover, even his copious serving of brats and sausages during his superbowl “party”. He knew that would be publicized and ridiculed, just a convenient out for him to say….hey I served up pork!
He’s serving up a lot worse than that, I’m glad there are smart people who are seeing him for the liar he is. And as a “christian” give me a break, hanging w/ the rev. wright for over 20 years, who took hate speech to a new level? And covering up crosses when he spoke at that univ. What Christian COVERS THE CROSS??? Actually, I believe he thinks HE HIMSELF is God, he’s such a narcissistic, megalomanic dictator mao wanna be. Anyway you slice it, he’s going to hell, and he won’t be able to talk his way out of that!
He thinks we are all idiots, this mess gets worse every day. God help & protect America, this clown surely isn’t.
Practical Jane commented:
Just after this clip ended Hannity defended Obama’s claim of faith by referencing Wright’s Church. Hannity needs to do some research. Black Liberation Theology is not Christinaity. It’s a blend of socialist and marxist ideas molded to Christianity. Whether Christian or Muslim at heart, Obama is steeped in Black Liberation Theology, which is both un-American, and un-Christian.
Count me in as one who believes that he believes in the dreams of his Muslim father.
Male Silverback commented:
great post! Man, this will play forever on Chris Matthews, but it will be fun watching him spit in Barry’s defense.
Mueller commented:
Who cares about his religion. He’s an unmitigated disaster as a president. everything he proposes for the country must be challenged, not only by the republicans in both houses , but every conservative as well.
We have as our president an extremely small man with an enourmous ego, but without the intellectual chops to lead. Hell. Even to make a considered decision. His religion is secondary. Its his ideology that needs to be defeated. Even better, humiliated .
Let’s everybody concentrate on 2012.
RedBeard commented:
#1: That’s it, in a nutshell.
When a man tells me he is a devout Christian, it doesn’t mean anything. What matters is that his deeds are in conformance with Christianity. If they are, then I believe him.
But those words are lies if his deeds are aimed at furthering the advancement of Sharia law and the world wide caliphate.
scituate_tgr commented:
I once read a comment on this subject that has stuck with me…something to the effect of: a Christian, would never call other Christians “bitter clingers”.
Also, Patriot Act, #30, I agree: taqiyya
JR commented:
I saw that and thought to myself “I am not alone. Other people realize what I do.”
Yes, Virginia, we do have a Secret Muzzie for a president.
Terry Gain commented:

Very true and only a Muslim would say Islam was revealed – as Obama did in his poorly reported speech in Cairo.
Truck Driver Divorce commented:
I was watching Al Jazeera last night. Even they are puzzled by the mixed messages being sent from DC. Mubarak should stay. Mubarak should go. Mubarak should stay. Mubarak should go. Worldwide, we look like fools. Remember how we were told again and again how wonderful the world would think we were if only we elected this community organizing, present-voting jackass?
Can anyone name one thing this administration has done right? Is it incompetence or are they trying to kill us all?
donh commented:
Notice how it is always the media response to bully people in an intimidating tone if they dare express any opinions Obama is a muslim, as if there is no basis for such a possibility. This includes people like Beck. Yet people are growing more courageous in their willingness to raise thair hand and speak the TRUTH.
Peter Warner commented:
That short clip at the top of the post was very refreshing.
Perhaps more will be encouraged to speak openly about our honest thoughts about our current president, the MBM (make-believe-media) be damned.
Certainly, Rev. Wright did/does not preach Christianity. Along with the ‘bitter clinging’ comment, no one with humility toward G-d or reverence for life would say ‘punished with a baby’.
Certainly, Obama did not grow up in America.
My honest impression is that he does not love America, or its values. That’s why I can say with conviction he is not an American.
Many others sensed that as well, before the election. That half the voting population would vote for him nonetheless, leaves me distraught. May G-d use this all for greater purpose and victory.
Pray for America and its leaders.
Best regards, Peter Warner.
Edouard commented:
He may or may not be a Muslim, but he is pro-Muslim. “By their deeds shall ye know them.”
Also as we can all see, he shows no evidence whatsoever of sincere, principled Christianity.
I find him to be non-religious and a fake as regards any religious faith.
He is a pro-Muslim fake.
Muffin commented:
Shall we debate it further or just draw up the articles of impeachment? Being a Muslim doesn’t bother me nearly as much as his corrupt bent, blatant dishonesty, and gross incompetence. Strangely enough I would take Joe Biden over this, that’s how bad it is.
Joanne commented:
O’Reilly
“But you don’t want the Muslim Brotherhood?”
Obama
“What I want is a representative government in Egypt.”
You notice have Obama did not state he didn’t want the Muslim Brotherhood. He has no problem if the Muslim Brotherhood forms a representative government in Egypt. Traitor, treason, terrorist.
Joanne commented:
If the American people united and demanded Obama prove his eligibility, you wouldn’t have a ursurper in Office destroying American, her allies, and all her natural interests. The reponsibility is with the people of America.
Joanne commented:
“Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.” – King James Version (KJV)
Obama takes the Lord’s name in vain, each and every time he states he is a Christian, when he could not be further from a Christian. Obama routinely breaks this Commandment in order to appease the American people.
Edouard commented:
#49 Joanne
Yes, his answer there is slickly evasive, so typical of Obama.
He’s doing everything he can to ensure Iran 2.0 in Egypt while pretending vaguely to be in favor of “democracy” to placate his duped American followers.
The Muslim Brotherhood insinuating itself into power will be democracy, Hamas-style, and anyone with any brains knows it.
Why does Obama never speak of a constitutional republic? Why does he never advocate for liberty and individual autonomy? These brilliant and life-affirming concepts are where the United States of America is truly the world’s guiding light. I dearly wish we had a president who believed that and truly understood that.
Instead, we get a liar. We get an evader, as shown yet again in his answer to O’Reilly. Why is it that his habitual evasiveness and fakery never dawn on the Left? He can tell them anything and they just trumpet it — like gospel.
Especially America’s gigantic vaguely liberal non-religious segment of the voting population believes him entirely at face value when he tells them he is a Christian. After all, these millions have no personal basis to understand otherwise.
They never attempt to examine his actual conduct which so obviously reveals his fraudulent, dishonest character and his lack of wisdom, which are putting America ever more in danger around the world. His handling of Egypt and Iran are towering examples.
John Lee Pettimoore III commented:
Hey tobbs…if Gore had carried his so called home state of TN in 2000, there would have been no need for FLA. Gore is the one who tried to steal the election in FLA with his selective recount.
Blue Collar Todd commented:
These voters get that Liberalism is a religion and that it is not compatible with Christianity. I have argued this before.
http://www.bluecollarphilosophy.com/2010/11/why-liberalism-is-not-compatible-with-christianity-machen-and-spurgeon.html
Liberals are the greatest persecutors of those who dare to disagree with them. And if Obama is a Muslim, the end result will be the same, so we are in trouble either way.

I understand that people who write on comment boards are self-selecting (if everyone is trolling, is it really trolling?), but I would argue that someday soon, the anti-intellectualism that’s caught our country by storm will go out of favor. It will be interesting when one day I’ll explain to my children about how some people were so angry, so gullible, or so preposterously stupid (or a combination thereof) that they actually believed the president was not of the religon he claimed. Our posterity will look at those people will the same amount of repect as they will Truthers. Congratulations, folks.
RedBeard commented:
#60: Authamt, do you automatically believe that everyone who claims to be a Christian really is one? If so, it might be good to spend some time on a reality check.
I doubt that Obama has any spiritual faith at all, in anything other than his own imagined greatness. But it’s clear and factual that he was raised as a Muslim, whether or not he ever embraced the faith. It’s also a fact that Obama was a member, for a very long time, of the so-called Christian church run by Jeremiah “G.D. America” Wright, whether or not he embraced that vile, hateful agenda.
No, the only thing Obama’s actions point to is a man devoid of any faith, devoid of a moral center, a man who has dedicated his entire life to the false religion of leftism and world socialism.
Obama’s lifelong associations with, and mentoring by, communists like Frank Marshall Davis, radical criminals like Bill Ayers, and hatemongers like Jeremiah Wright make him a perfect tool, a very dangerous useful idiot for the Islamist cause. And that is what we must truly fear.
authamt commented:
@RedBeard (if that really is your name) I didn’t say that I “automatically believe everyone who claims to be a Christian really is one,” but rather that the President says he is a Christian, and I believe him for the same reason I believe President Bush is a Christian and President Clinton before him is.
However, I’m glad you’re at least moving in a good direction by saying that he’s not a Muslim. I’m sure you’d agree that there’s nothing inherently wrong with being Muslim, but as you know the connotation among many with right-leaning politics is that the word is a pejorative.
But here’s what I don’t get – somehow an association with a non-Muslim Christian reverend (so he apparently did go to church enough to be influenced by him?) , a tangential (at best) association with a non-Muslim guy like Bill Ayers (who, as far as I know, is not religious at all), and another tangential association with a non-Muslim like Frank Marshall Davis (who Barack Obama himself called “incurable”) somehow justifies fear of an “Islamist cause.” Why not a Jewish cause, Hindu cause, Christian cause, or for that matter why not a cause for Scientology? As far as I know two of those men are or were communists, and it is common knowledge that if there’s one thing that radical Muslims don’t like, it’s communism.
