Obama Not a Muslim; Fundamental Transformation; BP Is A Nice Fella; Black Liberation Theology; and Giant Tax Increases Coming

[Without offering any proof at all, yet another columnist in the main stream media declares that those who think Obama is a Muslim are wrong - even the 1 in 10 Democrats who think so.] The Chicago Tribune asks: Are Americans getting dumber? New evidence of that dreary possibility is offered by two new polls that show an unexpected development: Since President Barack Obama's inauguration, the number of people who believe — wrongly — that he is a Muslim actually has increased. Almost one in five Americans (18 percent) think President Obama is a Muslim, according to a new Pew Research Center poll, up from the 11 percent who said so in March 2009. The proportion who correctly say he is a Christian is just 34 percent, down from 48 percent in March of last year. [For me, the more the MSM attack our stupidity and rascism, the less I believe a word they write.]  http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/ct-oped-0822-page-20100822,0,4153667.story

Daily Interlake writes: It is amazing how easily the American people have let the hood be pulled over their eyes as they are led on their way to political slaughter.
No, I’m not talking about the elections of 2008, 2010 or 2012, but rather the “fundamental transformation” of our U.S. Constitution from a document that protected “we the people” from the government into a tool the government can use to control us.

This interesting tidbid comes from Financial Times: But now that he is a BP contractor through the oil company’s Vessels of Opportunity programme, designed to employ local fishermen in the oil spill clean-up operations, he earns more consistent money, and works a lot less than he used to.
BP is a very nice fella, and this is a guaranteed cheque,” he says, pointing to a huge yellow skin or “bladder” on his boat that is used to collect skimmed oil. “I’m sticking with this for as long as I can.”
All over Louisiana, it is the same story: fishermen involved in the programme – according to BP, there are 2,000 vessels currently on active hire in the VoO – are discovering that hauling oil boom is far less taxing than shrimping, and they are in no hurry to return to their traditional way of life.
In Venice, Louisiana, the nerve centre of BP’s operation to remove the estimated 200m gallons of oil that gushed into the Gulf of Mexico after the blowout of Deepwater Horizon on April 20, the atmosphere is like a modern-day version of the Californian gold rush.   http://www.ft.com/cms/s/0/22f0dc08-ae19-11df-bb55-00144feabdc0.html

American Thinker writes: As Wright's black liberation theology was the only experience with Christianity that Barack Obama had ever had, it should have been incumbent upon him to explain his renunciation of not only Wright, but also of black liberation theology as a whole.
Black liberation theology is the brainchild of James H. Cone.  Cone states in his own explanation that black liberation theology is his attempt to forge a third way between Martin Luther King's orthodox Christianity and the Islamic creed of Malcolm X.  As I noted in my original work on black liberation theology as practiced by Jeremiah Wright, anyone wishing to become a member at Trinity needed only a black perspective on faith and Black Muslims were welcome members with no renouncing of Islam necessary to join.
Here, then, is the first of a 3-part series I wrote in 2008 on Obama's faith. http://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2010/08/obama_black_liberation_theolog_2.html

  1. I don't really care if he is a Muslim or an Atheist...It is his actions that worry me...He definitely is so far left in his ideology that he is in camp with Karl Marx. He is on a path to ruin America. Tax and Spend, social justice, equal results (not just opportunity!) and on and on...He represents the greatest threat to our culture and society in the history of the United States.
