“Was Barack Obama a Muslim? Again, just because his stepfather allegedly wrote that in the blank does not necessarily mean that he was”
Strawman alert!
What his stepfather wrote anywhere has NOTHING to do with the issue.
According to the Islamic religion and Islamic law, if your father was a Muslim, you are a Muslim. No exceptions, no choice, no nuttin as we say down south.
Now if Obama wants to deny he is a muslim, that is his business. Under islamic law that doesn’t mean he is not a muslim. It means he is an apostate Muslim. The penalty for that is death.
Islam is not big on the concept of choice.
Now by western terms if Obama wants to say he is not a Muslim, that is his right. Under Islamic law he has no such right.
What is important here is what the Muslims think, since they are the ones that care. Few people here in the states care one way or the other. Those using the issue against him are using the fact that he is being dodgy about it, not the fact that he is a Muslim.
He could have put the entire issue to rest by simply stating that he was an apostate Muslim and that would have been that.
Which makes one wonder just why he didn’t. Might there be some reason he is hiding?
You remember Kerry and his DD214? The one that he was going to release to counter the Swift Boaters claims? If he had released it and it said what he claimed, the Swift Boaters would have been blown out of the water. Kerry would be President. He didn’t, which left anyone with an IQ greater then a flatworm thinking that he was hiding something and the Swift Boaters were correct.
Obama has put his self in the same hole.
If he doesn’t release them, it’s because he is hiding something. Trying to bluff his way past the issue didn’t work for Kerry and it won’t work for Ohhhhh…..BAAMA. No matter how many reporters are hunching his leg.
