Obama Stealth Muslim?
Total People in Discussion: 1
I suspect there's a funny column in the hero worship being bestowed
on Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama; if I come up with
anything, I'll post it here next week.
Meanwhile, the Illinois senator has become the subject of a
distorted forwarded mailing that I guess can be called an urban legend,
although it hasn't been around all the long.

Subject: Obama, Background, "Pretty Scary"
Barack Hussein Obama was born in Honolulu, Hawaii, to Barack
Hussein
Obama Sr. (black muslim) of Nyangoma-Kogelo, Siaya District, Kenya,
and Ann Dunham of Wichita, Kansas. (white atheist ). When Obama was two
years old, his parents divorced and his father returned to Kenya.
His mother married Lolo Soetoro -- a Muslim --
moving to Jakarta with Obama when he was six years old. Within six
months he had learned to speak the Indonesian language Obama spent
"two years in a Muslim school, then two more in a Catholic school" in
Jakarta.
Obama takes great care to conceal the fact that he is a
Muslim while admitting that he was once a Muslim, mitigating that
damning information by saying that, for two years, he also attended a
Catholic school. Obama's father, Barack Hussein Obama, Sr. was a
radical Muslim who migrated from Kenya to Jakarta, Indonesia. He met
Obama's mother, Ann Dunham -- a white atheist from Wichita, Kansas --
at
the University of Hawaii at Manoa. Obama Sr. and Dunham divorced
when Barack Jr. was two.
Obama's spinmeisters are now attempting to
make it appear that Obama's introduction to Islam came from his
father and that influence was temporary at best. In reality, the
senior Obama returned to Kenya immediately following the divorce and
never again had any direct influence over his son's education. Dunham
married another Muslim, Lolo Soetoro who educated his stepson as a
good Muslim by enrolling him in one of Jakarta's Wahabbi schools.
Wahabbism is the radical teaching that created the Muslim terrorists
who are now waging Jihad on the industrialized world.
Since it is politically expedient to be a Christian when you are
seeking
political office in the United States, Obama joined the United Church
of Christ to help purge any notion that he is still a Muslim.
Another version of this e-mail begins:
THE ENEMY WITHIN!
This is the "dude" that some people want to be the next President
of the United States.
Scary, isn't it??????
Speaking bluntly, in a real presidential election, no one in their
right mind would vote for Obama. That would be like voting for the guy
who just moved in down the street from you, that you wave to from time
to time but don't know a thing about. That's Obama. He's been a US
Senator for 100 days, give or take a week. Obama takes great care to
conceal the fact that he is a Muslim while admitting that he was once a
Muslim, mitigating that damning information by saying that, for two
years, he also attended a Catholic school.
