I've misspoken before. I've misspoken before on national television.
I've mixed up words, reversed orders, but I have never once misspoken
concerning my faith and the God in whom I trust. Even in the most
heated debate on Islam, never did I ever utter the words "my Muslim
faith." Nor, even when talking about Buddhism, have I ever slipped up
and referred to "my Buddhist faith." Ever. Why? Because my
Christianity is so ingrained in me, so a part of who I am, that the
thought of adhering to a false religion is so foreign, so blasphemous,
that the words would never cross my lips.
Not the case for Mr. Obama. On ABC's "This Week" with George
Stephanopoulos, Obama said:
"Let's not play games, what I was suggesting – you're absolutely right
that John McCain has not talked about my Muslim faith. And you're
absolutely right that that has not come."
Matthew 12:34 says: "For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth
speaks."
Notice that Obama didn't correct himself. He was "corrected" by George
Stephanopoulos who interrupted Obama, with the words: "Christian
faith."
Let's just say he misspoke. Did Obama misspeak when he told the New
York Times that blasphemy was one of the "prettiest sounds on earth at
sunset"?
That's right. In a Feb. 27, 2007, interview with the New York Times'
Nicholos Kristof, that's how Obama described the Muslim call to
prayer. That prayer, which Obama recited with a "first-class [Arabic]
accent," begins with this:
Allah is supreme!
Allah is supreme!
Allah is supreme! Allah is supreme!
I witness that there is no god but Allah
I witness that there is no god but Allah
I witness that Muhammad is his prophet ...
While Obama's campaign site declares: "Senator Obama has never been a
Muslim" and "was not raised as a Muslim," the records say differently.
As was documented by Jerome Corsi in his best-selling book, "The Obama
Nation," in January 1968, Obama was registered as a Muslim at his
primary school under the name Barry Soetoro. Even the Associated Press
has released a photocopy of the document where Barack Obama is
registered as an Indonesian citizen of the Muslim religion.
Obama also claimed he never attended a mosque. Not so, according to
eyewitnesses. As was reported in WorldNetDaily, childhood friends and
even his school principal said they saw Obama attend the mosque with
their own eyes. In response, the Obama campaign issued another
statement: Instead of claiming Obama was never a Muslim, as they had
previously posted, they then claimed he "has never been a practicing
Muslim."
Even in Obama's autobiography, "Dreams From My Father," he called his
school "a Muslim school" and admits he studied the Quran during his
formative years from age 6 to age 10: "In the Muslim school, the
teacher wrote to tell mother I made faces during Quranic studies."
He could have never made faces in Quranic studies if he wasn't
studying the Quran.
