Imitation is the highest form of flattery.

And so the 'rest of the story' is that there is no Catholic prayer ... but a Jumah. wow

Except there is a Catholic benediction, and the Jumah is not part of nor pondered by the DNC.

Interesting reporting of YOUR OPINION. Maybe you could favor us with an unbiased source for this statement that you don't identify as 'your opinion'.

It is an opinion based on fact, and sure enough, they got every single one of their "facts" wrong.


Hmmm ... is this another way for the Dims to say, "He ain't in lockstep with us."?

I've read that Dolan offered a non-political prayer ... which was declined. Yep, the Dims are "unifiers".

Wait, so they had not gotten back to him by a certain date, and you think what? And how many people who did not share the views of the republican party spoke at the RNC?

Nice try, but you should always fact check. Will save you from making all these embarrassing errors.

Vanished!… Islamic Jumah Disappears From Official DNC Schedule
Posted by Jim Hoft on Friday, August 31, 2012, 6:01 PM
That’s weird?
Back on Monday the Obama Campaign listed an “Islamic Jumah at the DNC” as an “official function” at the DNC convention in Charlotte next week.


But now it’s gone.

Gerard Direct has more on the disappearing Jumah:

Earlier this week, we posted an article about the DNC sponsoring, as an “official event” JUMAH at the DNC (watch the promotional video here).

Florida Family Association sent out an email alert on August 29, 2012 which reported the following two sub headlines:

“DNC approves Jumah for 20,000 Muslims.” “RNC adopts anti-Sharia plank at convention.”

The email alert and Floridafamily.org website provided a link to the DNC web site calendar of events which at that time and up until yesterday afternoon included the Juma event, which the original DNC website listed as an “official function.”

However, since then, the Jumah event was removed from the DNC web site calendar, and there is no reference at all to the event. A supporter noted in an e-mail, “It was still there 5.30 PM on 8/30/2012 and at 6.30 PM it was gone! I looked everywhere but it’s not listed anymore.”

The event is still listed at MuslimBureau.com.

Excuse me Mr. GLOBAL MODERATOR, somehow I thought this thread was about the DNC. Are you perchance going off topic?

Still listening to Gateway Pundit when they have been proven wrong? Did not bother to read the actual fact checking? Let's walk through this step by step. First, fact checking source, again: snopes.com: 2012 Democratic National Convention Prayers. Now, where does it prove that this was never a official function? Let's look:

The Jumah Congregational Prayer is not listed with the Charlotte in 2012 or DNCC logo denoting an official campaign event.

Oops. Darn facts always getting in the way of a good lie. But wait, there is more: Caucuses and Councils - 2012 Democratic National Convention. Oops, there are no official caucuses or councils(which this would be) until the day after the Jumah ends.

Hmmm ... see above.

Yes, see abov e.

Pointing out the nature of nominating conventions is not off topic, no.

Conspiracy crap always gets destroyed. Birther, truther and similar crap never fairs well, because it is based on lies and a willingness to believe them. I hope this helps you in the future.
