"I like him better," said West Virginia resident Dale Swiderski, who, along with 77 percent of rural Caucasian voters, confirmed he would much rather go to a baseball game or have a drink with Ahmadinejad than spend time with Obama. "He takes national defense seriously, and he'd never let some gay protesters tell him how to run his country like Obama does." According to the same Gallup poll, 60 percent of rural whites said they at least respected that Ahmadinejad doesn't try to hide the fact that he's Muslim. etc. etc. http://www.theonion.com/articles/gallup-poll-rural-whites-prefer-ahmadinejad-to-oba,29677/

Onion might be onto something there. Ahmadinejad doesn't deny he's a Muslim. And,,,, with barry's record of lying.

If you are implying that President Obama is a Muslim, then I have something for you: President Obama doesn't practice the five pillars of Islam (which every Muslim does), and he drinks alcoholic beverages (which no Muslim does).

It's commanded by the pedo mohammed. Non-muslims are required to do whatever they need to do to gain converts and make the world religion islam and world law shariah.

Can you provide links to your post? Interesting very interesting. I hope that the links that you provide are viable links. Not like the last ones. I think I was charged like 57.00 dollars. But, I got a free blow up doll which was cool. We may get married.
