Really, Who Is The Boss?

Awesome, tea bagger/birther editing. That video is intentionally cut off, what Obama was really saying is that:

[Obama]

What I was suggesting - you're absolutely right that John McCain has not talked about my Muslim faith [cut here by conspiracy theorists], and you're absolutely right that that has not come ...

[News Caster]

Your Christian faith.

[Obama]

My Christian faith - well, what I'm saying is ...

[News Caster]

Connections, right.

[Obama]

That he hasn't suggested that I'm a Muslim, and I think that his campaign upper echelons haven't either. What I think is fair to say is that coming out of the Republican camp, there have been efforts to suggest that perhaps I'm not what who I say I am when it comes to my faith, something which I find deeply offensive, and that has been going on for a pretty long time.

that is a direct transcript of the show.

Nice try.

Obama a Muslim? No he's not. The evidence has not changed.

rulings%2Ftom-pantsonfire.gif

President Barack Obama is a Christian, but a minority of the American public keeps telling pollsters he's a Muslim.

The Pew Research Center recently reported that 18 percent of Americans believe Obama is a Muslim, up from 11 percent in March 2009. A Time magazine poll found even more -- 24 percent -- said he was a Muslim.

PolitiFact has done extensive fact-checking on Obama's faith and has debunked false claims in chain e-mails that he attended a radical Islamic school, that his political rise mirrored a biblical tale about the Antichrist, and that he took the oath for U.S. Senate on a Koran. All three earned our lowest rating, Pants on Fire.

Our fact-checking also showed clear evidence that Obama is a Christian. According to the president's memoirs and independent biographies, Obama was not raised in any particular faith. He became a Christian when he was in his 20s while working as a community organizer in Chicago. Obama said the churches there impressed him with their commitment to social justice and the hope they gave to the poor.

"It was because of these newfound understandings that I was finally able to walk down the aisle of Trinity United Church of Christ on 95th Street in the Southside of Chicago one day and affirm my Christian faith," Obama said in a 2006 speech. "It came about as a choice, and not an epiphany. I didn't fall out in church. The questions I had didn't magically disappear. But kneeling beneath that cross on the South Side, I felt that I heard God's spirit beckoning me. I submitted myself to His will, and dedicated myself to discovering His truth."

The pastor of Trinity then was Jeremiah Wright, the minister from whom Obama distanced himself in the 2008 presidential campaign, after video of some of Wright's more controversial sermons were aired on television and the Internet. The break between the two men was over Wright's comments about American foreign policy and race relations, not tenets of Christian doctrine.

Several independent reports have documented Obama's church membership and faith life. "Along his Senate campaign trail (in 2004), Obama would never fail to carry his Christian Bible. He would place it right beside him, in the small compartment in the passenger side door of the SUV, so he could refer to it often," reported journalist David Mendell in his 2007 biography Obama: From Promise to Power.

After the falling out with Wright, Obama said he intended find a new church once the campaign was over. In office, though, Obama has not attended one church regularly. Instead, he has worshipped at various churches in the Washington, D.C., area, including the Allen Chapel African Methodist Episcopal Church, the Nineteenth Street Baptist Church, and St. John's Episcopal Church. He also has attended services at Camp David, the presidential retreat.

Obama regularly seeks spiritual guidance from a group of pastors and called them recently from Air Force One for a prayer session, according to an account in the Washington Post. Last week, when the Pew poll was released, presidential aides said Obama remains a practicing Christian and prays daily.

In April this year, Obama hosted an Easter prayer breakfast at the White House, and spoke of being inspired by Christ's resurrection, particularly in light of the human failings of selfishness and pride.

"It's not easy to purge these afflictions, to achieve redemption," Obama said. "But as Christians, we believe that redemption can be delivered -- by faith in Jesus Christ. And the possibility of redemption can make straight the crookedness of a character; make whole the incompleteness of a soul. Redemption makes life, however fleeting here on Earth, resound with eternal hope."

So why do so many people keep saying he's Muslim? A benign explanation is that there is genuine confusion about his religion because Obama has Muslim ancestors on his father's side and a traditionally Muslim middle name, Hussein. Another is that people who disagree with him politically and dislike the Muslim religion like to associate him with something they perceive to be negative. (Read more about these perceptions in our report, "Why do so many people think Obama is a Muslim?")

But all evidence points to the fact that Obama is a Christian. The members of the public who say he is a Muslim -- 18 percent, according to the Pew poll -- are wrong, and we rate their statement Pants on Fire!

DinarDud, You are dreaming! I saw the actual interview. With all your infinite wisdom, why don't you come up with the so called teabagger/birther unedited version? That should be simple for a genius like you. Let's see it. Come on we would like to get a lesson in your infinite wisdom. It's ok we know you can't find one. NICE TRY THOUGH! Where do you get your crap from? The Obama spin room? You always seem to come up with counter post to anything negative posted about Obama, but most of it doesn't hold water. Keep trying though, we admire and are amused by your persistence. You've been cracking me up for months. You remind me of the kid whose mommy keeps telling him he can sing, even though he couldn't carry a tune in a bucket, but yet his mommy told him he can sing, so he keeps wailing away, thinking everyone that walks away doesn't appreciate his angelic tone.

Takes a lot of verbiage to perpetuate a lie.

Yes it does.... organized vilification flooded with confusion of validity of your most intelligent decisions via emails, blogs and entertainment mediums have captured what was believed to be the most stable minds. Brainwashed by their own kind. A vulnerable infinity of ignorance plus deliberate lies repeated on blogs have exposed real American idiots. :mellow: Should be a bestseller.

Who will win the 2nd debate and go on to capture 270 electoral votes... Chat tomorrow night. ;)
