As for Hilary, me and many other people hate her. I really hope she doesn't win. But if she does, she will most likely be assasinated. Same goes for Obama too, but he is actually cool, and would be sad.

OMFG THANK YOU!!!!!! Finally someone agrees with me...I didn't want to be racist but I did mention this and finally someone agrees with me :O

Hate to tell you this, but feeling happy when someone agrees with you, whilest that upon which you agree is blatantly false (and even borders on slander/libel) isn't exactly a good thing.

Obama is about as much a Muslim as the Pope is a Buddhist, and the Dalai Lama is a Mormon.

Sorry I don't know that much about those people so I couldn't understand. You must understand I wasn't feeling happy, I just wanted to see if anyone had the same opinions as me and there it was.

As P. T. Barnum said: There's a sucker born every minute.
Don't immediately believe everything you're told. Verify for yourself, or have them present proof, if what they're telling you is either true or bantha poodoo.

Your mind is the greatest weapon you have available to you, if you let others dull the edge.. Well.. You'll be taken for a ride once too often and it's unlikely that you'll be able to get out of that hellhole in which you'll find yourself dumped.

So someone wants to claim that Obama is a Muslim? Where's the proof, and none of this.. well my cousin knows this woman who has lunch with this guy whose brother-in-law is the custodian of the building where the sister of the cleaning lady of Obama's sister-in-law lives stuff.

That same type of "proof" can be used to slander/libel a family member of yours to being a prostitute/drug dealer/pedophile etc etc etc. Whereas you know that such a charge is completely false and has no relationship with reality such as it exists.

Now if you're cool with that, then just ignore what I said. But if stuff like that gets your dander up, then start using your noggin and be willing to question.

Try a little research. You may learn something. Like the fact that Obama is muslim. He was sworn in on the Qur'an when he bacame Senator.

I did not SAY and I did not KNOW that he was or was not Muslim. Anyways read what the guy above me posted"HoboX". He said Obama is a Muslim o.o so now I'm mad confused xD

**hoboX10** · 04-10-2008, 02:57 AM

Well Obama as a Muslim started as a rumor but then youtube had this video of Obama saying hes Christian, but there was alot of rumors that it was voiced over by some guy that sounds him or something like that, so now I am not sure if he is or not.

**Benawolnow** · 04-10-2008, 03:12 AM

Oh thanks...I guess that clears up the confusing more O.o

**Silverstone** · 04-10-2008, 03:27 AM

As far as the next president goes..
Any of the candidates can do better than Bush.
I will be voting for Obama if he gets the ballot.

I did to my research, you may have missed that post I made more than a month ago in this thread: Race/Gender why the claims you made were incorrect.

But just to make relevant links available again, in case someone cannot be bothered to go to the other linked thread.

http://www.snopes.com/politics/obama/muslim.asp <- With regards to him supposedly being a Muslim

Also, it was a completely different Senator who posed with the Qu'ran
http://www.snopes.com/politics/religion/ellison.asp

No bible or other religious texts are used during the actual swearing in ceremony.

And Snopes is kind enough to list their sources, whenever they confirm or debunk a claim.

Now where's your proof with regards to your claims??
After all, if you've done your research, then you must have source material.

So, in short, all you have is rumours. Or the ye old my cousin knows this woman who has lunch with this guy whose brother-in-law is the custodian of the building where the sister of the cleaning lady of Obama's sister-in-law lives stuff, I mentioned before.

Guess, the same applies to you, what I said to Ben.. Dare to question, don't contribute in the spreading of rumours, disseminate factual information.

If, you don't, then you're just going to get taken for a ride and cheated for all you're worth and then some.

I really don't need your poorly attemped satire.
But it's fun to laugh at your bad literature skills.

Looks like I hit a nerve. *wry smile*

Look, I've been on this planet of ours, a wee bit longer than you.
Now you can heed my advice or you can ignore it. Matters little to me really, just that I gained my "wisdom" by making boneheaded decisions. If, I can spare someone else some of the same misery, why shouldn't I.

In the end, you're the one making the choices and possibly suffering the consequences of said choices. *shrugs* And that's no skin off of my nose, that's for sure.

**Benawolnow** · 04-11-2008, 08:48 PM

Well, Satsu I guess you enlightened us that Obama isn't muslim now can we get off this topic and back on track?
