Texas do you think this is proof enough that Obama is a Muslim and will photo change outcome?

Personally I don’t know. I don’t think this will help him at all and if he is the democratic nominee you know the Republicans will use this and his cocaine use to slam him pretty hard. I really just want to know if you think this will effect his chances in Texas at all or any of the other States.

I don’t think it will help. Even subconsciously that picture will keep running in people’s minds.

I think all it proves is that Obama is respectful of other cultures when he visits another country. Anyone who thinks this somehow proves he’s a Muslim is a moron and probably shouldn’t be allowed to vote in the first place. I have more respect for the American people than to believe that they will let this picture influence their decision.

Retired Air Force Gen. Scott Gration, who accompanied Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) on his trip to Kenya in 2006, on Monday defended Obama’s trying on local garb over his clothes during a visit to the rural Wajir region in the country, a picture of which is at the top right now of the Drudge Report.

Obama was merely being a “great guest,” Gration said.

The main story on the Drudge Report on Monday shows Obama fitted as a “Somali Elder” and Drudge’s story said “Clinton staffers” –who were not named–were circulating the picture.

The Obama campaign said release of this photo was “fear mongering” and “ divisive.”

Does this photo prove that Bush is a Russian?

Non-issue. I suppose Bush dancing in Africa means something profound about his connections to Africa?

bush attended islamic religious event recently in saudi arabia
hillary was seen wearing a islamic head scarf
does that make them a muslim
just because obama is wearing a traditional somaliam costume doesnt make him a muslim
wearing a traditional means a level of respect u show

Who gives a s&%$ if he’s a muslim? His policies suck, which is reason enough why you shouldn’t vote for him…

You know, nobody really knows what Obama is, and to tell you the truth, I’m starting not to care so much anymore. He’s too mysterious and inexperienced to be a good president, so whether or not he’s muslim, white, christian, black, female, etc. doesn’t matter to me. He does not have my vote, and anyone who does vote for him supports the future crisis of this country.

He has a long list of association with Muslims including Tony Rezko, a Syrian American. Farrakhan likened Obama to the founder of Nation of Islam, Fard Muhammad.

Of course it’s not proof. Hillary has been photographed wearing the regional dress of countries she has visited too, including wearing the hijab, and nobody’s saying that she is a muslim. This proves nothing.

I wouldn’t even care if Obama was a Muslim, but I still support Hillary.

A very few people can see the out come of this election, neither one of them (Obama, or Hillary) are not going to win this election , unless they pull together, if Hillary is out , then McCain will win , taking all of Hillary’s Votes , leaving Obama in the Darkness.

Right, I’m going to believe what National Examiner says any day.

It’s total nonsense. If I wanted to read nonsense I’d read the Onion for free.

i don’t know if this will hurt him or not but in all honesty, it is nothing that others do not do when visiting other nations.

i am not a support i won’t vote for him because of the promises he makes and cannot possibly keep.

it would mean huge tax increases and more of our hard earned money, out of our pockets and families mouths going for more socialist programs.

If I wore a yarmulke it wouldn’t make me Jewish. If I wore a veil, it wouldn’t make me a female Muslim. If I wore turban, I wouldn’t be a Sikh. If I wore a cowboy hat, I wouldn’t be a cowboy.

However, if I happened to visit western Kansas where my dad grew up, I might accept the graciousness of my hosts if they gave me some local clothes to wear.

Can there be a story of less account than all of this neo-con right-wing garbage about Obama being a Muslim and that would make him unfit for the Presidency. GWB is a born-again Christian, and he is unfit for the office. The President’s religion should have NO bearing on his fitness for the office.

The photo is something people will have a hard time getting out of their memory. No doubt about it. However, the real damage to Obama will be originating from his membership in a “Christian Church” whose pastor has a long history of supporting noted bigots such as Louis Farrahkan, Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson. It seems to me that in order to be a “good Christian”, one must never make any racist remarks about another culture that is different from their own. Since Obama is a member is of a racist church that has very strong racist beliefs among its leadership, he is guilty of association and it will destroy him come election time. Another factor is that Obama was born a Muslim to a Muslim father. Any Islamic religious leader (Imam) will tell you that if the father of the child is a Muslim then the Child is a Muslim. The fact that he attends a so called “Christian Church” is irrelevant. Once you are born into a specific faith you cannot change it. Relgious ceremonies that are intended to convert people into another religion are all fake. It is THEATRICS people SO WAKE UP.

Lets not forget how the Democratic Party prides itself on how tolerant it is towards racial and ethnic diversity. This story about Obamas church makes him look like a damn fool. In the past, Hillary was caught on tape calling a reporter (who happened to be Jewish) a “dirty Jew”. That story made her look very foolish as well but since she is a Clinton, the news media buried the story and it simply went away over time.

As a Texan, it does not change my opinion of him at all. I plan on visiting my early voting location tomorrow afternoon and make my vote for him official!

No matter what religion he is I would never vote a black man or white woman into office. Neither race or sex represented here can ever claim to represent my best interests. John McCain gets my vote. Like what I have to say or not, My views are no different than any woman or black person who will vote democrat simply because they share a color or creed with someone else.

Do you realized how many presidents have gone to different countries and tried on garments? Most of them including Bill. Do you know how many regular people go to other countries and try on clothing? The picture is completely irrelavent.

I hope people are wise to this stupidity. Military guys in and from Iraq know this is not what they wear in the Middle East.
Anyone with half a brain that sees news from and about Iraq and the other places know they wear robes. What Obama is wearing is traditional African garb. The fact this keeps coming up tells me Clinton thinks Americans aren’t as smart and in the know as I would like to give them credit. In a nutshell she’s counting on American stupidity, predjudice and emotions. C’mon we’re smarter than this.
