If Obama is a radical Muslim, why did he just appoint a Jewish chief of staff?
Rahm Emanuel is the son of Benjamin Emanuel, who was born in Jersusalem during the British occupation and who was a member of a Zionist group pressing for Israeli independence (achieved in 1948). Rahm attended a Jewish day school as he grew up in Chicago. Obama just named him as white house chief of staff.
Would a militant Muslim do this? It seems to me the entire case for the supposed "Muslim terrorist" connection is Obama's name, which coincidentally sounds like Osama. Well, if one is going to make a case based only on names, what about "Emanuel"?
Can we please finally drop this "terrorist" nonsense surrounding our new President? Thank you.

To the person who answered "to piss off the Christians": I don't think you understand the point here. The Christian right tends to think quite favorably of Zionism and of support for Israeli sovereignty. This is the type of appointment some might have expected from Mike Huckabee. This choice kinda destroys some preconceptions, I think!

the scare tactics were primarily used by the campaign and now that its over, it will die down. it will just take a while for the anti-obama true believers to let go of the brainwashing propaganda they bought into over the course of the campaign.
btw, nobody can tell anybody they "don't have a chance without Jesus." I know people who don't profess to be Christians whose lives reflect Jesus more than most Christians.

Maybe as some form of cover...you know how those pesky Muslims are....
Honestly, if he's Muslim he's Muslim...people should get over it.
