America the 57-state caliphate?!

By Michelle Malkin  •  June 3, 2009 11:01 AM

What the…

As President Obama prepared to leave Washington to fly to the Middle East, he conducted several television and radio interviews at the White House to frame the goals for a five-day trip, including the highly-anticipated speech Thursday at Cairo University in Egypt.

In an interview with Laura Haim on Canal Plus, a French television station, Mr. Obama noted that the United States also could be considered as “one of the largest Muslim countries in the world.”

(From: NYTimes, “Obama Says U.S. Could Be Seen as a Muslim Country, Too.”)

We’re not even close.

That’s Obama math for you.

And the Obamateurism of the Day.

    I would have to assume he meant that if a country is ruled by a Muslim, the country is considered a Muslim country and has nothing to do with the population’s faith.

    wales,

    You’re close, but not quite on. A country is probably considered Muslim if it’s laws are written with respect to and in the image of the Muslim Faith, ditto for a Christian country.

    BHO could wind up being Muslim, but that would not make us a Muslim country necessarily.

    It would make us perhaps the dunbest bunch of dupes since Germany circa 1930′s.

    The world’s most populous Muslim nation is Indonesia.

    The capital of Indonesia is Jakarta.

    Barry’s earliest memories are not of growing up as a Christian in the United States. They are of growing up as a Muslim in the capital city of the world’s most populous Muslim nation.

    And then we are supposed to believe that it was not intentional that
    Barry allowed his “Hope” book to published there with a title suggesting:

    Jihad: From Jakarta To The Whitehouse

    They had to get one of their own into the WH first.

    The laws come later.

    Trust me… in the Muslim world… we are a Muslim nation.

    Populations don’t matter. It’s all in the leadership.
    You can’t impose anything unless you’re in a position to impose it. Especially in a country as strong as the US and they knew this.

    Besides… In Islam everyone is Muslim. They believe everyone is born Muslim and when they chose another faith they become infidels.

    So it’s not a matter of the faith of a nation. What matters is the willingness to submit. Once a nation submits to a Muslim leader (and then Islamic law), it’s a Muslim nation regardless of the individual faith of its people.

    Barry:

    And one of the points I want to make is, is that if you actually took the number of Muslims Americans, we’d be one of the largest Muslim countries in the world.

    Truth:

    Indonesia: 200 million Muslims.
    India: 156 million Muslims.
    Pakistan: 150 million Muslims.
    .
    .
    .
    United States: 2.3 million Muslims.

    I an sure he was referring to surface area. The only country larger, (I believe…) is Siberia/Russia and they certainly aren’t Muslim.

    But, even if he isn’t, what can you expect from someone who’s visited all 57 states (excluding AK & HI…), and still had a couple-three to go.

    I often wondered if, under the pressure and fatigue of the campaign, his internal truthfulness-suppression manager
    collapsed and in his answer he conflated (his whistle-stops during the campaign in…) the 50 US States with (his visits during his student days) the 57 Islamic Caliphates.

    Or, perhaps President Cucaracha’s ears draw so much blood away from the brain that we shouldn’t expect too much or be so critical of the poor nebbish…

    No, not surface area, but “the number of Muslims Americans”….

    Since Obama claims to be a Christian, and mentioned Harry S. Truman while speaking in Truman’s hometown of Independence, Missouri, why didn’t Obama mention this Truman quote?

    The most important business in this Nation–or any other nation, for that matter-is raising and training children. If those children have the proper environment at home, and educationally, very, very few of them ever turn out wrong. I don’t think we put enough stress on the necessity of implanting in the child’s mind the moral code under which we live.

    The fundamental basis of this Nation’s law was given to Moses on the Mount. The fundamental basis of our Bill of Rights comes from the teachings which we get from Exodus and St. Matthew, from Isaiah and St. Paul. I don’t think we emphasize that enough these days.

    If we don’t have the proper fundamental moral background, we will finally wind up with a totalitarian government which does not believe in rights for anybody except the state.

    Sorry if my comments seem a bit excessive, but for Obama to claim that the United States is not a Christian nation, and is a “Muslim country”
    is so incredibly wrong that it must be met wih an abundance of evidence of the truth.

    When he was running for president, we were supposed to take his word that he was “a Christian,” and not to ask any questions about his Muslim past. Since he’s been president, he has denied that the United States is a Christian nation, and NOW says that it is a MUSLIM one.

    I believe that Obama is a nothing. He doesn’t believe in anything but himself, so he can’t be a closet Muslim. He’s simply a very confused, very stupid narcissist.

    soon to be a “North American Union”.
