Wait for it .. the part that goes "This, is, Huge!" I love Jon Stewart.
Obama's middle is from his african father, Barack Hussein Obama (Sr.).
His parents divorced.
But his mother remarried an Indonesian man in Hawaii and lived in Indonesia for 4 years (from the time he was 4-8) until his mother divorced his step-father. Indonesia has a huge muslim population. That's the connection. (stunning, no?)
Last year Jan, 2007 - Foxnews ran this stunning tidbit, before Obama announced his candidacy, that Obama that went a muslim school called a "Madrassa" (don't ask me if I spelled it right). The hype is that "Madrassa" is Arabic for "school." *oooh* spooky. They forever referred to it as Obama's Madrassa past.
CNN went to that Madrassa elementary school in Indonesia. It was an ordinary school where the wore western dress. |
Madrasa is the Arabic word for school, and in all fairness, the school could have been one that offered koranic study. However, four years in childhood means little - the way some spin Obama and Islam makes it seem like he is a Muslim Manchurian candidate.
