Maher nailed it.

Ramos didn't do himself any favors. Lol

Matthews just looked sheepish most of the time... especially when Maher made the white privilege comment.

"...the people at the school thought it looked like a bomb. Perhaps because it looks exactly like a F'n bomb".

So...if a non-muslim, high-school aged male walked into a Mosque in America with the same device, what would happen?

Even the young are starting to see the truth about Obama.

^^ He didn't even build a clock, he repackaged one to look like a bomb.

So what's the deal with a muslim kid bringing a clock to school that "resembles a bomb"? I don't know, but it also turns out that his dad is a Sharia activist. Hmmm...

I knew he didn't build it when in the video interview with him, he referred to the numeric display as "lines". They are called "seven segment displays", as anyone who's ever actually built anything from them knows.

The media oversimplifies it with their headlines. No, I'm sure he didn't solder the wires and create it all from scratch. No one said he is ripe for the Nobel prize. But the kid's 14, give him a break; he's just experimenting and learning. He has to start somewhere. He has shown FAR more initiative and interest in intellectual pursuit than most American kids his age. So stop taking that from him and denigrating him just because of his Muslim background.

So Obama brought a kid who cheated on a class project to the White House? LOL, this is the most snookered President in history on everything.

If his parents believe in Sharia they should be deported out of the country. Sharia is one of the radical cult aspects of Islam where women and others are killed or abused by their religious law and they rape in the name of their false god claiming their innocence due to religious directives they have to follow.
Not good!

There isn't any information about this kid being an honor roll student/deans list and/or factural information of him building other electronic inventions/devices and/or teachers confirming the same, just the sister saying that he always had interest in electronics, taking things apart and putting them together, spare me the manure.

Seems it was out of the blue he decided to build a clock/time that resembled a bomb without a school assigment/project, so what's the true story for building this device?! <----rhetorical, . . . the father is a radical muslim activist that set this whole thing up.

If the ackmed kid really wanted to make his "clock" work he would have found a way to run it off solar power or something not leave the gross a/c power cord hanging out. This idiot kid did nothing but rile-up liberals probably at the tutelage of his arab activist father.
Don't you mean rile-up Islamaphobes.
