False myth? I only perpetuate true myths, like Odin.

Really? It's PPP's fault people think Obama is a Muslim? This is what you're going with?

So why is the Atlantic repeating the assertion in the headline? If they're so damned concerned, then why are they being part of the problem?

Oh The Atlantic, there was a time I used to wait eagerly for it to arrive.

I'm just skimming the comments. What's this about Odin being a Muslim?

PPP, which is a Democratic firm, is sometimes maligned for being an unreliable pollster, but in this case the biggest problem is that they're asking the question at all.

The article is seriously saying "yep it's the libs fault". Unbelievable

If you still think Obama is a muslim or he wasn't born in America, you're a farking retard. Simple as that.

This is not in any way hyperbole. If you believe either of those two things, you should literally be legally classified as mentally retarded.

On Obama before being elected:

OMG! Have you heard about the reverend at the church Obama goes to?

On Obama after being elected:

OMG! Obama is a Muslin!

I expect nothing but the highest degree of stupidity from Mississippians. And it appears that they have delivered once again.

I thought it was the Clinton campaign that started the "Secret Muslim" meme when they started distributing the photo of the President dressed in the traditional Muslim garb. That was long before the Teahaddists showed up on the scene.
 
2012-03-13 12:56:35 PM
I'm pretty sure I said the same thing in the PPP poll thread.

Wait, are you now admitting that the Tea Party only was created AFTER Obama was elected?

If you are just realizing this, welcome back from Stupidville. Before Obama, most of the campaign against excessive Federal Government spending was under the mantle of Porkbusters. The Teahaddists began after a rant on CNBC by Rick Santelli in February 2009.

They were interviewing attendees on the way out of some bible thumping political rally in Alabama on NPR yesterday.

One said that the Constitution states a presidential candidate must have two parents born in the USA.

Another said that America is currently under Muslim leadership and cannot succeed.

Another said getting Jesus back into our government is the only way to make America great again.


It's moments like that which make me sad for the country, but glad I was born, raised, and live in Massachusetts...

I'm amazed some of these yokels can breathe on their own.

It's doubly sad, because there are a lot of beautiful areas in Alabama.

Obama can stop being called a Muslim and whatever else, when all people that won't vote for Obama can stop being called racist and whatever else.

Practice what you preach. Yeah, like that's gonna happen.

We all know he is a muslim. The question is whether he is one of the shape shifting white lizard alien muslims or just a run of the mill muslim. Until we hold congressional investigations into the matter his presidency will be forever under a cloud of illegitimacy.

I love it when angry people generalize themselves to sound like a bigger victim.

[placate] I'm so sorry you are being repressed. Maybe next time the empty suit with devious plans to destroy America will not make it. Also, socalism. [placate]

Maybe the question needs to be...so what? Is this not a secular nation? Teamorons shriek "Hitler" "Nazi" and yet are so awfully retarded as to not realize just how similar the are to the very Nazis circa 1930s. Just replace "Jew" with "Muslim". Look at how many of these Tealosers would happily cheer on the Federal government rounding up Muslims and deporting them. I wonder how many would even be in favor of worse considering how many wish to see all of the Middle East nuked.

Problem is not the idea that a President could be non-Christian, problem is that we have too many f**king retards in this society who continue to be allowed to vote. Letting stupid people vote for stupid candidates and stupid ideas is far more dangerous than Al Qaeda could ever dream of being.

/maybe the best question is why do we let the leader who controls access to nuclear weapons be someone that believes in fairy tales and invisible man in the sky garbage?

Ah damn. Didn't both reading your name. Well as a pasty white person let me apologize. White lizards do need to be given more respect. But you grey sympathizers, whoever you are, don't think there will be any mercy for you.
 
2012-03-13 01:27:14 PM
I believe the proper response is "How dare you? At least show a little respect for the office of the President, you unpatriotic bastard. What are you, a Commie?"
 
2012-03-13 01:36:45 PM
im just gonna start agreeing with them, then say something like
1. he will go down in history as America's 1st Muslin President
2. Presidents Day a Federal holiday, will now become a Muslin High holy day, and your children will be forced to praise Fartbama in school
3.Since he is the 1st Muslin President, he gets to go on Mount Rushmore
4. maybe something simple like, " I know, it's great isn't it"

So when the right talking about it and even giving it a nod and wink is ok but when the left points out what they are doing THEN it becomes the left's fault for perpetuating it.

Yeah like that's not inconsistent at all.
