If Obama is a Muslim, He’s Not a Very Observant One

By On August 19, 2010 · 4 Comments

A new Pew poll was released yesterday showing more Americans now think President Obama is a Muslim. Among conservative Republicans that number is now 34%.

And here’s a picture that was released by the White House of President Obama ordering a sandwich for lunch in Seattle yesterday.

In case you haven’t been paying attention, we are currently in the middle of Ramadan – the holiest month in the Islamic calendar – and a month in which Muslims are supposed to fast from dawn to sunset. Fasting during Ramadan is actually one of the Five Pillars of Islam.

It seems to me that a devoted Muslim who is supposedly trying to replace the Constitution with Sharia law would certainly be fasting instead of ordering a Turkey sandwich.

But I guess I’m not the one who needs convincing.

    Well, he did order a turkey sandwich. Now if he had plunked his money down on pulled pork bbq, I may be persuaded 😉

  • Here you go, Delco. Obama eating a pork sausage…

    I dunno. I know a muslim couple where the wife observes the ramadan fast while the husband currently isn't. He regards himself as muslim although he's willing to discuss with me the possibility that islam is complete bullpucky just like christianity and judaism.

    Now I'm still wondering why obama's religion is an issue and why such a large chunk of the american population says, “derp derp…”
