Actually, we don't have cable or satellite, so I don't get these stations. It would have to have been ABC, which we don't watch anymore since Gibson lied and said he wasn't aware of the information circulating about ACORN. lol
I'm sure I can splice up some nice footage of you to make you look like anything I wanted. lol
And if I had the money and connections to get it on Sean Hannity... the right wing cool-aide drinkers would believe it. LOL
Here's the deal. I worked for Lexis Nexis and supported congressional information systems. This kind of thing is exactly what another poster pointed out... trash. Here's how the right wing media works. Let's say an interest group puts together a video like this that slanders a politician they don't like. They send this to someone like Hannity. Hannity airs it in the name of "Is Obama a Muslim?". He airs their video, interviews their spokes person, and in the end... it's on them rather it's true or not. Hannity was just "reporting" on their accusation. He doesn't owe a retraction because it wasn't his piece. It wasn't billed as fact so he doesn't have to verify sources. And if it's refuted he's not obligated to tell you.

Diva works for me, Aquila!

Aquila,
After Rachel Maddow, Keith Olbermann, Chris Matthews (tingle up my leg), etc., I really am not going to listen to the "right wing media" stuff. Seriously! LOL!

Here's where people go wrong. The right wing is notorious for this kind of stuff...but the left wing does it too. Fact is... you can't trust the news. It's owned by corporations (both right and left) that cater to their selected special interest groups rather it be the right wing fascists or the left wing homosexual lobby. This system is run by the right and left hands of evil. The only party of principle is the Libertarian Party... but even they roll over for corporate money.

I don't think it's the right wing media that is "notorious". I listen to news clips from both sides, Aquila.
But, you are right - you can't trust the news!
What is the deal with so many in the Libertarian Party being Atheist. I've purged out some from my Facebook accounts that said they were atheist and I noticed that every single one was from the Libertarian Party!!! What's that about?

The Republican and Democratic parties are full of conservative and liberal Christians. Not to mention all the nutty new age religions that are in the Democratic Party. Libertarians are largely advocates for absolute human freedom as long as it doesn't violate the rights to life, liberty, and property of another. The Libertarian Party is also largely Constitutional, meaning it caters to no religious bent. Atheists feel more comfortable as Libertarians.

A "real" Muslim would never have invited someone "over for a beer." Not only is the consumption of alcohol (an Arabic word) forbidden by the Koran, but to serve or even to carry or transport alcohol is forbidden.
I don't disapprove of Obama because of whatever faith he may have, or even his apparent lack of faith. I disapprove of Obama because his policies are wrong and they are bankrupting our nation.
With the most important health care changes possibly ever about to be voted on, the deepest recession in decades, unemployment over 10%, a war in Afghanistan that is about to deepen.........and the right winger's in this country still trying to convince everyone that the man is a closeted Muslim.

It still blows my mind that the American people actually put that man in office.
This really is no surprise. 70% of our nation is christian and only 12% are even registered to vote. If we are not out voting in every election including local and state elections we can't expect anything different. Talking will never get us anywhere. We must vote in all elections to see real change happen.
