Uh, they believe in the same God as the Jews and the Christians. How utterly bigoted.

And anyway, why aren't you answering? Why does it matter? Do you think only Christians should be allowed to be president?

Anyone with Socialist Ideas isn't a true American.

Being able to have Socialist Ideas, and present them along with ever other idea, is what makes a true American.

Do you believe in public schools? Police? Fire? Life guards? The Military?

If you do you are not a "true American" either, by your own definition.

Diane, if your definition of a true American is what I have to hew to to qualify, then I guess I would rather not be a true American. You sound like Joe McCarthy (crossed with his brother Charlie).

And anyone who believes that a specific set of political beliefs causes one to not be a true American is less a true American than those s/he is excluding, because it is a bigger betrayal by far of the American ideal.

(It's also moot where Obama is concerned. Try Bernie Sanders. That's U.S. SENATOR Bernie Sanders, to you.)

And Diane?

He spent time in Indonesia, not Kenya. Please keep your smears straight.
His Aunt from Kenya is living here illegally in a Public Housing Project that should be reserved for Americans only.
Why is she still in this country. I refuse to use my money to pay taxes for an illegal alian. He knew she was here,he strches the truth.

No, I don't. But I would not want an athist as a President. Barack has not been to church since he left that fake church.
I also would not want a Presiident in a Religion that teaches hate.

So, I correct your mistaken claims. I point out that the article YOU cited disagrees with you about Obama's being a Muslim. I point out that you are wrong about his having spent lots of time in Kenya.

And all you can come back with is his aunt? And, again, with ZERO evidence? You're like the poster in the other thread who claimed that was his grandmother in Boston.

The word is alien.

You stretch the truth at least as much as he does. (I don't deny he does - every politician at the U.S. Senate level does, I fear. Saint McCain does, too.)

You want the law to deal with his aunt? That's odd. So does he.

When proved wrong, change the topic.

You did see who started this thread and what was said, right? I have been totally shocked at the hateful and actually, slightly crazy Obama supporters on this site. It is scary to me how his "followers" have gotten so wrapped up in this man... it is not healthy.

He changed from a Muslim to an atheist in the last ten minutes?

Ok, never mind, you'll never come clean, and I think we both know why, which is good enough for me..
