GOP_forever , Obama isn''t a Muslim, but be advised that FloydZepp is.
Floyd also has never seen a terrorist or Jihadist he didn''t love.

Why are all the people who love Obama also the same ones who defend Muslims and terrorists and terror attacks and people who kill Americans and women and children? I don''t know about you guys, but I''d be VERY uncomfortable to be siding with the same people who support our worst enemies.

Poor, poor, Obama. If he can''t take the heat, get out of the kitchen. It just shows how immature Obama really is and what a elitist, pseudointellect we are finding him to be. Vote for a man of character and a true patriot, vote for McCain.

zerato, everyone at my church thinks this and I visit other churches and they all think that too. A true christian does not want to be led by a muslim.

It makes me mad and I don''t even like Obama. It''s really in bad taste and racist. Shame on you, New Yorker!

I''m not going to vote because I don''t feel that my choices are what I''m looking for, but this is wrong... Say that you meant it however you want, but it can be taken so many ways and it just looks bad for the magazine.

Yeah, its satire. It is supposed to make fun of the scare tatics right wingers are using against Obama. Unfortunately, many people will think it is the truth.

Obama is not any more a "breath of fresh air" than a man who who believes in fairy tales. He says nothing- and give s good speech. He cannot lead without experiance. Putting your trust in someone unqualified is just plain dumb.

Tasteless? Every politician alive and dead has been caricatured, but somehow Obama is sacrosanct?

If Obama is elected, you can bet there will be more of this. They need to learn to deal with it gracefully instead of acting like whiny little pc children. If they can''t, I seriously doubt he''s/they''re mature enough to run the country.

ow a magazine dares to print what all of us good christians think.

Posted by GOP_forever

Don''t think that Christians think this. Only the racists, bigots and ignorant think this. Which means no Christian would think this.

While it is a piece of satire, it seems that its effect is missed on the feeble minded.

Obama is quick to accept apologies, but if he feels threatened perhaps there is some truth to it.

According to the news story, Obama shrugged it all.

How is this any differant than others who poke fun- Saturday Night live, for one- and Reverend Jackson for two- Obama is quick to accept apologies, but if he feels threatened perhaps there is some truth to it.
