Now he's a Muslim again?

Topics: Political News and commentaries

Apparently, now that he's president and no longer has to hide his Muslim roots to be elected, Barack Hussein Obama is once again, Barack Hussein Obama. And as Warner Todd Huston points out at STACLU, after spending three years running away from his past, our president is now nominally a Muslim again, and one could say that like so much of his promises and statements in the past, his Christianity has, more or less, "expired": Obama Has 'Expiration Date' For His Religion, Too?:

[...] At least that is the message that ABC's Jake Tapper has discovered in the new, new way in which the Obama administration is presenting the president's connections to Islam and his religious upbringing and heritage. Suddenly it's A'OK to say that Obama has "experienced Islam" and remark about his "Muslim father" again. Rah, rah for Islam.

It has been said that everything that Barack Obama says has an "expiration date," because it isn't long after he promises something or makes allusion to some policy direction that he chucks the idea under the bus and drives head-long on to the next "promise" to earnestly offer the American people. And it isn't just his centrist positions he later conveniently reverses himself on, either, as several of his more extremist liberal ideas have gone under the tram, too -- much to the chagrin of many lefties that voted for him.

[...] the near outrage that Obama and his campaign indulged in as people began to pass the rumor that he was a closet Muslim. Then Obama put up a "Fight the Smears" webpage that forcefully denied Obama had any real connection to Islam and strongly reiterated his Christian beliefs.

But that was then. Now there is a "new" tune being played from the White House and it sounds like it is being played on an Oud*.

[...] Now it's OK to equate Barack Obama with his "Muslim roots" again? What happened to the feigned outrage when people did this only months ago? Does it now not matter to him if his true cultural connections are discussed merely because "I won"? Have we just discovered that his much celebrated staunch Christian beliefs have an expiration date?

That last isn't too hard to believe, anyway. After all, he's pretty much ceased attending church since he was elected, so it is plain that his attendance at a Christian church was a means to election as opposed to an expression of faith. Not that he is any more devoted to Islam, mind you. It seems far more likely that he is a man of no real religious convictions truth be told.

Read it all, there's much more.

I have to disagree with Todd on the idea that Barack Hussein Obama is far more likely to, in reality, be a man of "no real religious convictions," truth be told. I can't help but believe that Barry Hussein's Muslim roots are a greater influence in his life than Christianity, his religion of convenience, especially since he keeps going back to them. However, Barack Hussein Obama actually has his own religion - himself, he's a one man show - and he has his own followers, the media and the gullible Americans that voted for him. The guy actually believes he's got it all; he's the most pompous, self absorbed, self-centered, but least qualified to be president or the subject of adoration, human being on the planet. And he's is fully capable of saying anything, regardless of remotest relationship to the truth, as long as it supports his agenda.

Barry Hussein is far more a Muslim than a Christian, but the most powerful influence on him is the religion of "Himself."
