Obama: "ISIL Is Not Islamic"

What's with calling him "Hussein"? Did we call Nixon "Milhouse"? Did we call Reagan "Wilson"?

Oh, wait. I know why. Carry on. :roll:

What is it specifically that offends you when I call "Obama" by his middle name? After all your ilk on the left often referred to the previous president as "Dubya" or "Junior".
 
If it is not Islam that binds this group together, and their ambition to build an Islamic state, what to believe the connection might be?

Exactly. For instance the "convert or die" demand of the locals by ISIS is not telling them to convert to Christianity, Buddhism, or Scientology. They are being told they must convert to Islam and live by a very harsh version of Sharia Law. Suggesting that ISIS is not islam is as silly as modern democrats suggesting that the democrats in the US south who wrote and passed Jim Crow laws during the segregation era were not real democrats. Or that democrat governor George Wallace who attempted to block African American students from entering the University of Alabama was not a real democrat.

Their feelings are easily hurt by any possible slights against Dear Leader.

They must know all of this but something in their brains can't accept it. It's amazing to watch Obama say 'ISIS is not Islam' and how quickly others are willing to believe it, as though they were programmed to automatically respond that way.

This mind set is really not that much different from those who are joining and fighting for ISIS.

And they seem to have developed selective amnesia concerning 2001-2009. And it never stopped. They are still dissing Bush.

"Dubya" wasn't "the left's" nickname for him, it was everyone's, and it was do distinguish him from his father. Don't be so dishonest.

You want to highlight his "otherness" as an American.

Bingo.

Barrack never wanted to sound too American anyway, which is why he changed his named from Barry to Barrack and his profession from lawyer to Community Organizer.

Twice!! No typo there.

Pretending Obama is a Moslem shows how devoid of cogent arguments you have against his very successful policies. But that's the way of conservatives. They really have nothing to say that make sense so they are reduced to loony conspiracy theories and innuendo. Pitiful.

Yes. It's nearly impossible to actually find any "very successful policies", so cogent arguments concerning that which doesn't exist is a non-starter anyway. The loony conspiracy theory is that such policies exist in the first place. They don't, and the left's current midterm election dilemma reflects it.
 
It isn't about me either. You shouldn't let your hatred of me get in the way.

For Pete's sake, one cannot loiter around this place with his feelings on his shoulders.

"Dubya" was used by Bush supporters and detractors, like it or not. OCF's attempt to justify referring to Obama as "Hussein" by invoking "Dubya" is laughably dishonest.

So what's the problem with referring to Barack "Hussein" Obama by his middle name?

The intent is patently obvious.

As I said before, did we refer to Reagan as "Wilson"? Did we refer to Nixon as "Milhouse"? Did we refer to Kennedy as "Fitzgerald"?

He's got a weird, foreign, *gasp* Muslim-sounding middle name, and you're using that to further your perception of him as an un-American outsider.

It is his middle name is it not?
 
That's right people...

If Obama disagrees with that you are the religion you say you are that means you're not that religion

Thank god this kind of stupid standard isn't actually the standard, or else all the idiots accusing Obama of lying about being Christian and really being Muslim would suddenly have a leg to stand on

Yes, Isis is fundamentally Islamic in its makeup and foundational philosophy. Saying and acknowledging that fact and reality doesn't mean all Muslims agree with their stances or interpretations. This ridiculous attempt to deny reality in a backwards attempt at bending over backwards to disassociate them from a clear factor in their actions is not just dishonest but irresponsible. If you want to specific that they are a fundamentalist version, that's fine. But to claim they're not Islamic is just pure hogwash

Absolutely that was a stupid statement from the President.
 
It is his middle name is it not?

You know goddamn well it is; stop being obtuse.

I assume you'll be referring to all Presidents by their middle names from now on. Either that, or you have exposed yourself as little more than a partisan hack.
