Starts with "b", ends with "igotry",
and there's nothing in between, a fact the word shares common ground with the left and right ears of people who argue that he isn't Christian.

If one doesn't think a smooth talking politically motivated elitist Harvard lawyer is being honest, one is a bigot?

Yeah, because Arabs are not predominantly Muslims.
Does the fact that almost all Arabs are Muslim factor in here? Oh, right, that would be common sense, which is a nono. Forgot we have to pretend like we don't know anything.

Obama isn't an arab. He's of white american/Kenyan descent. He has an Arabic middle name inherited from his atheist(former muslim) Kenyan father.
I can get how someone could hear the name "Barrack Hussein Obama" and think
"huh maybe he's a Muslim. " They might then ask him if he is. I imagine it might go like this.
Person:" Hey Obama are you a Muslim?"
Obama "nope,I'm a Christian "
Person: "oh, which Church do you go to?"
Obama: " I went to this church for over 20 years"
Person: "cool, cya later Obama!"
Obama: "later"
That's where any reasonable person would end it. Any more is just crazy gibberish.

Trinity United Church of Christ, Chicago is the church most frequently cited by press accounts, and by Cone as the best example of a church formally founded on the vision of Black liberation theology.[17] The 2008 Jeremiah Wright controversy, over differing interpretations of some of his sermons and statements, caused then-Senator Barack Obama to distance himself from his former pastor.[18][19]

About his faith? Which Scotty am I talking to? The one who criticises him for being a member of Jeremiah Wright's church, or the one that thinks he's a Muslim? You can't have it both ways. You'd have to believe that he was a Christian and a Muslim, and that would be silly, no?

Baron Von PWN wrote:Scotty what is your point in this thread?
You keep saying things like "he was born Muslim" or 'his middle name is Hussein which is an arab name and 95% of arabs are Muslim" but then when asked if you think he is Muslim it's "Woah woah woah! for the 100th time he's a type of Christian I don't like!"
What's your point? Why do you keep asking these leading questions about his name and how it sounds Muslim?

As I've said many times. Anything I said about the Muslim debate was in the context of "you have to admit how some people will associate Obama with Muslims, based on his name" and "that does not make people who associate him with Muslims stupid or crazy". I was just saying how it is understandable, and other people should realize that.
We only had to get as deep as you pointed out because people cannot admit something so simple.

ok. However a few years into his presidency I would think everyone would know by now. I mean its been talked about to death and a simple google search will provide the answer.
Would you not agree that anyone still insisting he's a Muslim are probably more than just mistaken due to his name?

That's all I been saying, just not as defensively as you put it.

I however am CERTAIN that it had nothing to do with his desire to be a politician.....
