Viral e-mails attack Obama's life story

Politics – What began as a demonstrably false attempt to cast Obama as a Muslim has now metastasized into something far more threatening to the likely Democratic nominee. The spurious claims about his faith have spiraled into a broader assault that questions his patriotism and citizenship and generally portrays him as a threat to mainstream, white America.

The same smears appear here on a daily basis.

When there is little room to discredit on merit, many folks resort to personal attacks based on their own bias.

There are 300,000,000 people in this country, and all of them have an opinion of John McCain, or Barak Obama. You want to pretend he is not a Muslim, yet today he had to explain another association with another Muslim, a Mr. Kahidi he once met at college. One of the people jailed with the blind Sheik in the 90s was also a fellow student. Another one is holding a fund raiser for him. As old as I am I have never met a Jihadist. This guy knows several, add his bomber buddies, a couple corrupt Chicago politicians, and he has a problem. You are judged by the company you keep. It is that, birds of a feather thing.

Barack, Not Barak... Again Ani, you look REALLY silly calling Obama a Muslim, when you pronounce his name as if he was Jewish.....

"a Mr. Kahidi he once met at college" ?

This is not a serious argument. You can't call him a muslim because he knows muslims, or met one once.

If he professes his faith as a Christian, I think you are required to leave it at that.

As always the Republican hate machine is working overtime.Small Minds will always resort to hatred no matter who is running,We know from experience who they are and who taught them the tricks.Maybe America is a Bit smarter after the Terrible 7 years we have had under their leadership.As a Republican i,m looking forward to a Democrat leading this Nation unto a better way restoring our Power and Honor in the world we all live in.The GOP has fooled the nation into believing they could do a better job.They have proven they cant and wont they have Stolen the Wealth of the People and have engaged in a war of epic Blunder they have been responsible for more of their kind to be removed from office over sexual misconduct & Have had More of their kind removed due to investigations of wrong doings then any other Party in the nations history.This is what should lead our Nation!! dear God save us all From another Republican.
