I recently watched a video that showed Obama in a very compromising light. With all of the controversy surrounding Obama's religion, and his dealings with the radical factions of said religion its pretty un-nerving.
Obama has gone thru great lengths to distance himself from his Muslim faith, even at times during his election he claimed to be a Christian. Seems Obama plays the fence too much, and finally someone took the time to highlight all of the "Little" things he says in the many speeches he makes.
While having to watch Obama speak on TV for more than a minute is near torture, its likely because most of the head line news interviews are more like informertails pushing whatever agenda he might have at the time. Things like BUY HEATHCARE NOW, you only have a limited time to get this passed, and BUY A NEW CAR NOW and the Government will knock off $4500, for a limited time only.
Only this video cuts thru all his mindless prattle and focus's on the KEY WORDS he tries to implement into each and every speech. It shows interviews that are not doctored head-line productions.
Have a look and see why the TRUTH is never popular.

Nice video Rex, but all it shows is what we already know. We already know his dad was Muslim (not that it matters). We already know that he is knowledgeable of Islam (probably a good thing). And we know that he respects other religions (definitely a good thing). He never admitted to be a Muslim, but even if he was, he would still be a great president. It certainly raises questions why he would spend DECADES in a Baptist church before he even thought about going into politics.That was the speech from his first trip to the Middle East; would you prefer he get up in front of millions of Muslims and tell them to go fuck themselves?
At the end of the clip he says America will never be at war with Islam, and then the wing nut that so wonderfully spliced these clips together showed the planes flying in to the WorldTradeCenter. You took that bait hook - line - and sinker Rex. It suggested that we were attacked by Islam on 911. What you don't realize is that we were actually attacked by Al Qaeda - There is a difference. While Al Qaeda members are certainly Muslims, they represent only the extreme right wing fanaticism of that religion. In essence, Al Qaeda is to Islam, what the Klu Klux Klan is to Christianity. I take it you are a Christian Rex? If so, then would you agree with me that you and I shouldn't be judged by, nor painted with the same brush as Klan members? I ask because that is exactly what you are doing to Muslims, and you already know why I find that deeply offensive.
I too felt that splicing in the photos of the Airplanes crashing into the WTC were rather out of line, however I respect the persons views whom took the time to make the video. It appears towards the end he was trying to convey a message that may have lost its luster by showing that footage.
None the less there are no problems with Obama's Muslim faith, just which he has tried to denounce it in the past when seeking election. I have problems with OUR president bowing to a Muslim King. He represents America when he is flown on our dime to these places; his bowing was disrespectful to the people whom he represents.
Trying to refer to me as a Klan member just because I have spoken my mind is a bit overboard. You just said yourself that using graphic examples to get your point across was not a good idea, yet you yourself did it in the same response.
There are issues that will come to light, I only HOPE I am wrong. This is one time I would rather be WRONG. Unfortunately by the time something like this can be proven, it will be too late. I told you so's arent going to give us our freedom back.

The entire video was an attempt to smear the president by taking segments of a speech without their full context, and adding subtitles. The person who made this has absolutely no interest in being fair and balanced, but rather has an anti Obama agenda. Not exactly an awe inspiring Youtube find there Rex.

He's actually not a Muslim, but I don't think you will ever accept that, it seems you'll take any excuse to hate President Obama, even if the excuse isn't true.
Trying to refer to me as a Klan member just because I have spoken my mind is a bit overboard. You just said yourself that using graphic examples to get your point across was not a good idea, yet you yourself did it in the same response.
Here is my exact quote: "In essence, Al Qaeda is to Islam, what the Klu Klux Klan is to Christianity. I take it you are a Christian Rex? If so, then would you agree with me that you and I shouldn't be judged by, nor painted with the same brush as Klan members?"
Where exactly in my quote did I ever refer to you as a Klan member???? If you read a little more slowly you will find I actually said that just because we are Christians that we should not be judged by the actions of Klan members, this was actually a defense of you because I'm assuming you're not a Klan member. What I'm saying in the greater context, is by operating under the false premise that we were attacked by ISLAM rather than AL QAEDA on 911, it is the equivalent of assuming that KLAN MEMBERS are a good representation of CHRISTIANITY. This is why the video clip has absolutely no credibility, and neither does it's creator.
Rex, if you spend time surfing the net for reasons to hate the president, you will surely find no shortage of people willing to provide you with such reasons to hate him, whether true or otherwise. Might I suggest spending less time trolling for hate, and more time getting informed with actual non bias information from mainstream news sources?
There are issues that will come to light, I only HOPE I am wrong. This is one time I would rather be WRONG. Unfortunately by the time something like this can be proven, it will be too late. I told you so's arent going to give us our freedom back.
Too late for what? Who exactly is taking your freedom away? Stop watching Glen Beck please!!!!!!

Full context? No one wants to spend any more time than they have to listening to Obama. The subtitles are not far off either. The person whom made this has not put words in Obama's mouth, and has not smeared the President. Obama's own words are what smear him.
He's actually not a Muslim, but I don't think you will ever accept that, it seems you'll take any excuse to hate President Obama, even if the excuse isn't true.
He is not a Muslim? Do you need another viewing of that video? Any excuse to hate the President? I dont think so. I hardly think his actions constitute an excuse. If anything they merit the reason.

I am not saying you called me a Klan member. Just like the person whom made the video did not directly say Obama was responsible for 911. Just like you did not directly call me a Klan member, which I am not by the way. But both of you used a hate symobol to identify your feelings. I thought I already explained to you that Obama doctors up his main-stream media presentations. I got better things to do then be lied to by someone I didnt vote for.
Too late for what? Who exactly is taking your freedom away? Stop watching Glen Beck please!!!!!!
Powerstroker you need to wake up my friend. Obama is taking away my right to choice with regards to healthcare. I am sure thats just the start, however many people like yourself know your wrong, but your just to bull headed to admit you were wrong. Thats not my style, as I have already stated that I would LOVE to be wrong about Obama.
