This new FOX video is simply the latest piece of FOX malarkey scraped directly off the bottom of the FOX NEWS dungheap.
Obama is a Christian, and he spent 20 years in a Christian Church listening to the very Reverend Wright whom all Conservatives loathe.
How can Conservatives have it both ways?
How can Conservatives attack Obama for listening to that fiery Christian preacher Reverend Wright in a Christian Church for 20 years -- without raising any objections -- and in the same breath say that Obama is a Muslim? And, what Moslem Mosque was Obama attending with his family during those 20 years?
No wonder Conservatives are called Flat Earthers. Their tiny brains aren't very hospitable to facts.
True, Obama had a Moslem father, did live as a child in Moslem countries such as Kenya, and while there he heard the daily call to Moslem services (which can also be heard everywhere in Israel). That does not mean that Obama is a Moslem. He ain't.
In Obama's own words, he is reaching out and trying to show his personal affinity with the Moslem people. Obama is as much of a Moslem as JFK was "Ein Berliner" -- and, in exactly the same sense. Both Obama and JFK were reaching out to other people to show that they are friends, not enemies, of these people -- to show their kinship, affinity and empathy with these people.
The fact is that Moslems are not our enemies. Most Moslems are peace-loving folks.
Our enemies are a violent, lunatic, fundamentalist group of Moslems who are, in fact, the enemies of most normal Moslems as well as being our enemies. Obama in his quoted remarks is reaching out to the sane Moslems of the world, to keep them on our side, and to help us isolate and destroy the Moslem fanatics.
Obama's approach is having good results. The frequent US drone attacks in Afghanistan and Pakistan, which are now killing many of the worst terrorists, are the direct result of information being given to us by Moslems who are on our side, to help identify, locate and destroy the terrorist fanatics.
Unfortunately, Moslems do not have a monopoly on lunatics. The lunatics who created the FOX video -- completely distorting and misrepresenting what Obama is saying, doing and accomplishing -- prove that we have our own share of home-grown looney-tunes right here in the Good Old USA.
Don't buy their Brooklyn Bridge. Let them find other, more gullible buyers to whom to peddle their shoddy wares.

Either the Cons are schizophrenics, are born liars or don't know the difference between the truth and lies. Perhaps ostriches too.
I suggest All of Them. :0
Where did you dig this one up? I watch Fox alot and have never once seen or heard anything about this! I have actually seen the UTUBE video that you are refering to, and it is OLD---actually since the Presidential run. Why would they bring it around now? Give me a break!
"I watch Fox alot and have never once seen or heard anything about this!"
Who would of figured. Try typing in Fox News lies into google and see what you come up with. Then type in CNN lies and check it out also. Thanks.
Then, Casey, why are people continuing to pass this old video around now?
This video is Old --- and very tired.

Only ONE case that you didn't see on Fox? Hmm. ;)
Just imagine how many important unbiased news items you're missing by only watching Fox.
A while back I posted that you were watching Fox a lot.
NOW YOU JUST CONFIRMED IT YOURSELF smartiepants .... :0
You claim to be a Libertarian. A GENUINE Libertarian would watch only UNBIASED news.
Therefore, you're a CON!!!
"You claim to be a Libertarian. A GENUINE Libertarian would watch only UNBIASED news.

I think I can get along with a libertarian. But cons want to horn in, and it'll be 5 minutes before they're telling everyone what to do. Cons know best about all things except anything involving the truth.
Drill Baby Drill.
CNN doesn't get the lies tag because they don't report half of the news! don't go out on a limb and guess what? you play it safe.

Oh you are so clever! What the Fk? I never said that I didn't watch Fox! I believe what I said was that I also watch OTHER stations and other shows. I believe in listening to BOTH sides.
"You claim to be a Libertarian. A GENUINE Libertarian would watch only UNBIASED news."---Anon2
Yet another gem. Don't know what a Libertarian is, do you?
As a Libertarian I am a FISCAL CONSERVATIVE and am more socially liberal. I believe in more personal freedoms than you or RG or anyone else on this blog. I don't want to tell you that you can't smoke dope, or marry a same sex person, or where you can smoke. How you get that I should be watching unbiased news out of that I have no clue. I have opinions, only mine don't come from only one source and I don't have to use others opinion pieces to form my own thoughts and ideas.

Sarah Silverman Calls Fox News A '24-Hour-A-Day Racism Engine,' Fox News Hits Back
"Sarah Silverman has lashed out against Fox News — and the network has responded.
The comedienne, whose Comedy Central show was recently canceled, says the network propagates racism in her book, "The Bedwetter: Stories of Courage, Redemption, and Pee."
"The entire Fox News Channel is a 24-hour-a-day racism engine, but it's all coded, all implied," she wrote (via NewsBusters). "Lou Dobbs used to scream on CNN about 'immigration,' not 'filthy Mexicans.'"
"Sarah's anger is understandable having recently lost her television show," a Fox News spokesperson said in response. "We sympathize with her need for attention considering her book is languishing near 300 on Amazon.com."
Silverman didn't just target Fox News — she said the entire right wing is marked by a subtle form of racism.
"Right-wing Americans who appear in mainstream media are not out there calling black people 'n*ggers,' or saying, 'The Klan has good ideas,'" she wrote. "Instead, they're questioning the legitimacy of Obama's presidency by accusing him of being born in Africa or of being a Muslim. Or they're having tea parties and calling Obama a 'communist' and a 'Nazi.'"
I fully agree with Sara Silverman.
FOX News and the Right-Wing are clearly and obviously White Racist. It doesn't require Sarah Silverman to tell us that. Just watch FOX News for a few moments. It's elementary, My Dear Watson.
This is a Free Country. White Racists are entitled to a Network of their own. Just watch FOX News. It's "The One".
Yeah RG. I think we could get along. I don't want to tell you what you can or cant do. You should have as much freedom as you need as long as someone else doesn't directly get hurt in the exercise of those freedoms.I there a PROBLEM with that?
Are you calling ME a racist? Because if you are--we have some real problems! What makes you think that Sarah Silverman is some kind of mental giant and that she is qualified to make that kind of judgement call? How fucking DARE YOU?
I can understand this kind of crap coming from ANON2 because she is an absolute idiot and gets a pass---but YOU CJP??? You, who refered to "colored people" in an earlier post??? (look it up. I called you on it at the time)
Now you have really pissed me off and how fucking dare you!
This has gone way beyond a simple disagreement---now you are insulting me and you need to go fuck yourself because I WIL NOT BE CALLED A RACIST---BY YOU OR ANYONE ELSE MOTHERFUCKER!!!
I listen to FoxNews and it may entertain you to pretend that you are all Self-righteousness and sanctimonious and justified, but I would not spend one minute listening to ANYONE that is a racist and I would kick your ass right now if you were to say that to me in person. FUCK YOU CJP!
And Anon2---you are truly an IDIOT!
I have always thought that but have been far too nice to say it outright---but who the fuck cares now? You are an idiot and you are too stupid to know it
I CAN ONLY HOPE THAT I GET AN ANSWER FROM YOU CJP BECAUSE YOU OWE ME A BIG APOLOGY---MOTHER FUCKER---NO ONE CALLS ME A RACIST AND NO ONE---NO ONE---CAN INSINUATE THAT I WOULD TOLERATE THAT KIND OF THING---MR "COLORED PEOPLE"--NOT MY WORDS YOUR OWN. EITHER YOU ARE ABOUT 90 YEARS OLD OR YOU ARE A COMPLETE AND TOTAL FAKE. NO ONE USES THAT PHRASE ANYMORE, ASSHOLE!
AND you know what? Kick me off your mother fucking blog and see if I care! How DARE you! Like I would listen to a racist news organization!
You know how much you hate Sarah Palin, Anon2? Well multiply that by about 5 times and you will know what I think of you, you old wrinkled Woodstock refugee! You can't even express yourself with original thoughts---you have to post reguratated articles from the Huffinton Post---that we all have the ability to read on our own. Stupid shit.
Guess you have struck a chord here. I bet you are all anti-Semitic to top it all off---that's all I need right now! Assholes!
I feel much better now.
I never called you a racist, Casey. I never referred to you at all.
There is no question that there is plenty of white racism at FOX News and in the Tea Party movement. That's one reason I don't listen to them very much. I'm turned off whenever they start spouting this junk.
How in the world, Casey, do you equate my criticism of FOX News or the Tea Party movement as a personal criticism of you? Do you identify yourself so fully with FOX News and the Tea Partiers?
Do you consider yourself so much a part of them that you take any criticism of them as being a personal criticism of you?
Nothing I said mentioned you. I was talking about them -- not you.
As for my reference to "colored people", it was a joking reference to a phrase of the past. It was in the context of how Southern whites used to refer to African-Americans.
No one on this Blog is anti-Semitic, or anti-Israel. In fact, we fully and one hundred percent support Israel in this latest Flotilla incident, and in all of its dealings with Hamas and other Arab terrorists.
At one point, way back, an anti-Semitic person did show up on this Blog, and he was kicked off this Blog immediately. He picked the wrong Blog on which to start spouting that crap.
CJP
Damn, con on a rampage.
Case sweetie, there are pills for these times. Modern science is wonderful.
"FOUR: 'Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.' "
I always work on Sunday. No one is bugging me so I can get lots done. Is sista Sarah going to lock me up for it now? There you go again, telling me what to do.
No, you didn't flat out call ME a racist, but you are in a sense if you think that I would sit and listen to ANYTHING even slightly racist. If I were to see or hear racism, and not call it---then you know what? I would be guilty too. As you now can see---I would not sit still for that. Nothing sets me off faster than racism.
CJP, I listen to Fox. I see nothing racist---ever. If I did, I would join you in your hatred of all things Fox. It is an empty accusation. I am not stupid. I have seen racism in all of it's forms, and I would know it if I saw it.
It's an easy thing to call someone. It is getting thrown around quite a bit lately. the unfortunalte part is that it is creating a divide that shouldn't even be there. Obama is in the White House, not in spite of all of the racism in this country, but because of the tremendous progress that we have made in this country! What people are seeing that they don't like, is NOT due to the color of his skin---it's because of the policies that he is putting in place, the spending, and the direction that we are going. I don't like the race card being thrown around where it isn't warranted. It shouldn't be used as an intimitation tactic. I fear that it will set us back. It's very serious accusation to make, and if you are going to throw that accusation around, you damned well better be prepared to back it up.
As for the "joking reference to a phrase of the past"---it wasn't funny. You may not have meant it to be offensive, but it was.
Now, as for the anti semitic comment, I do apologise. that was just me going off. My temper got the best of me, but to be honest, I am a bit sensitive these days as I see the Left out there condemning Israel before the facts are known. The UN, the media, and many, many, of your Progressive organizations are throwing Israel under the bus over what was obviously a set up. I see Arab protestors in NYC spewing poison and flat out saying that Jews should be put in ovens---and the support for these people is alarming. I see what should never happen again becoming a real possibility of happening again. I see a serious possibity of Israel's distruction while all nations abandon her and sit back and let it happen.
And as this goes on, you call Fox News the racists.
"Case sweetie, there are pills for these times. Modern science is wonderful."---RG
I have buttons that should never be pushed. I never claimed to be mild mannered.
One last thing---I promise.
These days calling someone a racist is an insult beyond insults. That's a good thing, CJP. The mere fact that to call someone that incites such anger is a very good thing and is another sign of just how far we have come. Used to be that people wouldn't care if you called them that. Some wore it proudly---most didn't care.
You need to be careful before you throw that word around. Lots of people don't take it well.
Lastly, sorry CJP. I shouldn't have been so mean. You are a nice man and even though I think you are dead wrong most of the time, I don't dislike you. You and I know that I have had an interesting past and I wouldn't have been involved in some of the stuff that I have been involved in if I didn't have some fire in my soul. Guess it's still there. Looks like I may have to depend on it again someday...
"I never claimed to be mild mannered. "
Are you a red head?
no. I am a middle child and was always an "in your face" rebel. Black sheep of the family.
So Case, you are Jewish but believe in Jesus?
Well, Ray Gun, there's not such a huge contradiction in that.
After all, Jesus was Jewish, he was a Rabbi, and most everything he taught was based upon Judaism.
The only real issue is whether one thinks that Jesus was a human being --- or a divinity, i. e., God.
For Jewish people to believe that Jesus was a real person, and believe in his teachings, makes sense since Jesus was basically preaching Judaism to the Jews.
To say that Jesus was God is to believe something entirely different.
But, then again, Ray Gun, many people don't even believe that God is God. (Maybe He isn't).
"The only real issue is whether one thinks that Jesus was a human being --- or a divinity ..."
Another alternative, and the one I believe, he never existed. The written history back then is non existent, ie, Jesus does not appear in writing until around 150 years after his death.
"So Case, you are Jewish but believe in Jesus?"---RG
I was raised Jewish. I converted later in life. I am a Zionist. A large part of me will always be Jewish. My husband was Jewish so my children carry his name. All of this concerns me as I see the resurgence of anti-semitism throughout the world.
Black Liberation Theology!!!
Look it up!
It's NOT a Christian "CHURCH"
IT's a RACIST based organization calling for the DEATH of ALL OPPOSED to their theology!!!
SOUND FAMILIAR???
Don't listen to me just google it!!!
Casey, here I agree with you 100 million percent.
There has been a huge resurgence of anti-Semiutism in the world -- which is incredible, unbelievable, only 65 years after the end of the Holocaust. It shows you what short memories the people of the world have.
It is also vitally important that the USA remains firm and unwavering in its support of Israel. These "peaceniks" who are trying to break Israel's blockade of Gaza are supporting and reinforcing a viciously terrorist Hamas regime.
The Hamas regime in Gaza not only continues to engage in unprovoked attacks and provocations against Israel -- but you should see what they are doing to their own people --the Palestinians of Gaza. This is a savage terrorist regime, and that's who these "peace activists" are trying to prop up.
