Why does our president leave his wife behind
« on: September 05, 2010, 09:16:00 AM »
Why does Obama leave his wife behind when he goes to a Muslim country?  Laura Bush went with GW, Hillery went with Bill, Why does Michelle leave and go home when he goes to Turkey, or Saudi.

I have a response, but I want to see what others think first.

That is honor, and there are way too many people in this country today who no longer understand that fact.

Because Sharia law says a Muslim can't bring a non-Muslim wife into a Muslim country?

OK Shaggy you got the same info I got.

I got this in an E-mail last night.  Cannot authenicate the authantisity of it, but sounds reasonable to me.


Subject: Fw: Our President

SHEPPARD  SMITH, FOX NEWS!

"If you check President Obama's last trip over-seas, his wife left just after their visit to France . She has yet to accompany him to any Arab country. Think about it. Why is Michelle returning to the  states when 'official' trips to foreign countries generally include the First Lady."

Here's one thought on the  matter.

While in a Blockbuster renting videos I came across a video called "Obama". There were two men standing next to me and we talked about President Obama. These guys were Arabs, so I asked them why they thought Michele Obama headed home following the President's recent visit to France instead of traveling on to Saudi Arabia and Turkey with her husband.

They told me she could not go to Saudi Arabia , Turkey or Iraq. I said "Why not,(?) Laura Bush went to Saudi Arabia , Turkey  and Dubai." They said that Obama is a Muslim  and  therefore he is not allowed to bring  his wife into countries that adhere to Sharia Law.

Two points of interest here: 1) I thought it interesting that two American Arabs  at Blockbuster believe that our President is a Muslim, 2) who follows a strict Islamic creed. They also said that's the reason he bowed to the  King of Saudi Arabia.  It was a signal to  the Muslim world, acknowledging his religion.

For further consideration, here  is a response from Dr. Jim Murk, a Middle Eastern Scholar and expert on Islam. This is his  explanation of what the Arab American's were  saying.

"An orthodox Muslim man would  never take his wife on a politically oriented trip to any nation which practices Sharia law, particularly Saudi Arabia where the Wahhabi sect is dominant. This is true and it is why Obama  left Michelle in Europe. She will stay home when he visits Arab countries. He knows Muslim protocol; this includes, bowing to the Saudi King.

Obama is regarded as a Muslim in the Arab world, because he was born to a Muslim father; he acknowledged his Muslim faith with George Stephanopoulus.

Note that he downplays his involvement with Christianity, by  not publicly joining a Christian church in D.C.  and occasionally attending the chapel for  services at Camp David .

He also played down the fact that America is a Christian country and said, unbelievably, that it was one of the largest Muslim nations in the world, which is nonsense.

He has publicly taken the side of the Palestinians in the conflict with Israel and he ignored the National Day of  Prayer, something no other President has ever done. He is bad news! He conceals his true faith to the detriment of the American people." ---  Jim Murk, Doctor of Philosophy in Middle Eastern  Culture & Religion.

ACTIONS speak louder than words.

Another interesting item regarding Sharia Law..

Why has Barack Hussein Obama insisted that the U.S.  Attorney General hold the trials of the 911  Muslim Terrorists in Civilian Courts as Common  Criminals, instead of as Terrorists, who  attacked the United States of America ?

If  the Muslim Terrorists are tried in Military Tribunals, convicted and sentenced to death, by LAW, Barack Hussein Obama, as President of the United States , would be required to sign their Death Warrants.

He would not be required to sign the death warrants if they are sentenced  to death by a Civilian Court .

Recently,  Muslim Jihadist, Army Major Hassan slaughtered  non-Muslim, soldiers at Ft. Hood , Texas rather  than go to Afghanistan and be a part of anything  that could lead to the deaths of fellow Muslims.  He stated that Muslims 'could not and should not kill fellow Muslims.'

Is  the motive for Barack Obama's insistence on  civilian trials, to make sure he doesn't have to sign the death warrants for the Muslim Terrorists? Why would he, as President of the United States, not sign the death warrants for Muslim Terrorists who attacked the United States  and murdered over 3,000 U. S. Citizens on  9/11?   Could it be that he is  FORBIDDEN by his RELIGION to authorize the  execution of Muslims?
 
Think about that!  Open your eyes, ears and mind to who the  President is, how he behaves and what he is  doing!!!!!!!!!!

Looks like something out of the Wizard of Oz.  Don't know which is more troubling. Her dress or the dude with the orange socks and shoes. As far as Osama, errr Obama, being Muslim or not, actions speak louder than words. Think he proves it over and over again.

I'm with Dee and Spirithawk on this one. I was going to ask if any ever looked closely at a picture of this woman. I'll bet she scares little kids.  :P If it were me I would leave her somewhere every time I took a trip and hope I couldn't find her when I returned.  ;D

Every time I see a picture of Hillary I can kind of understand why Ol' Bill messed around.

The man just cant win. He takes his wife somewhere,hes wasting tax payer money. He doesn't and its part of him being a secret muslin Manchurian (style) candidate whose plotting to destroy America. If you want a crazy conspiracy theory though,I guess the internet is the place to go.

How come it it Ok to rag on Mrs. O's looks, but not Jan Brewer, who really does look like the back of a truck?'

 In any case, if O brings his wife next time, can we agree that he is NOT a Muslim then?

Nope,that wont convince em either. They will just say that he is doing it to throw people off the scent becuase his people read on the internet that we are on to him. It all started with "Obama is a muslim" Then it turned out he was not and that it was a lie,so it became "Obama is a secret muslim" then his crazy preacher that even Obama himself ended up distancing himself from,because we all have crazy freinds,but you know enough not to let them drag you down to there level,and sometimes have to cut them loose if they just get too crazy (most especially for people in politics,but really everyone has a crazy freind somewhere) was in the news,so it was "Obama is an adherent of a crazy preacher,but still somehow a closet Muslim". They just wont let it go because "I'm afraid of the scary black man" doenst play well on Fox "news". Actually,I think it WOULD play well on Fox "news" but the backlash would be more than they want.

 There are plenty of reasons that people dont like Obama that are legitimate. Hes a liberal that believes that government can and should provide an extensive array of services. Thats what liberals believe. If your a conservative that believes that government CANNOT effectively provide an extensive array of services or a liberarian that believes that government should NOT provide such services (even if they can) then your not going to like Obama. (there is quite a bit of overlap between those two of course) Thats reasonable. Making up crazy conspiracy theories,such as that Obama is was born outsite the US as part of a plot to subvert the American goverment which began for over 50 or 60 years,before he was EVEN BORN,and is based on the premise that he will be elected president,before black people could even vote,much less run for president is just about the dumbest thing I have ever heard.

Obama is not a muslim? PROVE IT. And no him claiming himself to be christian is not proof enough. His actions on the other hand scream "I am a muslim".

And just to humor you for a second: Lets say he is not muslim. Will you at least agree then that he is heavily biased towards muslims?

 I dont have to prove it,your the one claiming he IS a mulsim,when in fact there is no evidence of such,and all the evidence suggests he is NOT a muslim. Obama was a member of the Trinity United Church of Christ which is a Chicago megachurch run by Jeramiah Wright (who by all accounts is a nut case and who Obama distanced himself from becuase they guy just got nuttier and nuttier) The TUCoC is affiliated with the United Church of Christ. That makes Obama a protestant,with some Lutheran influences. Obama is a protestant.

 I can never prove to you that Obama is not a Mulsim becuase any evidence that I put forth you will just say is part of the conspiracy and just him playing the role for the cameras. I ask you to PROVE what you say,or at least give me some evidence other than crazy conjecture. When did he convert? Which mosque did he worship at? Who got him involved. He certainly wasn't a Muslim during his childhood,or are you suggesting that he hid that as a child too,because he dreamed some day of becoming president and destroying america? Are you suggesting that this is all some sort of plot hatched up in 1960 to raise a secret Muslim who would become the first black president,in a time when black people were not even universally allowed to VOTE much less run for president?
 
 Fine Ill humor you,"yes of course,hes heavilly biased toward muslims" happy now? Here,Ill go even further "Fine,hes a secret Muslim who was raised from birth to become president of the united states and hand final victory to the followers of Muhammed over the infidels" Now you can you climb down off that box,take off the sandwich board declaring "The end is near" and take your Thorazine.

 I have no problem with that comment. That dress was about the worst thing Ive seen since that metalic spray paint cammo job shotgun I saw on the used rack at Cabellas. I just want to point out that people can dislike Obama,or even make personal attacks,or for that matter crazy conspiratorial personal attacks,or hell,just plain make up derogatory things about him,without going off into a racist tirade about him. Just saying is all...

how about this, michelle obama is opinionated and plays the "strong, black woman" card often, and probably would NOT wear a burka and act all lowly and timid to a bunch of dirty foreigners- and that would really anger them... so her and her husband decided to not even go there.  why the conspiracy theories people?  muslim sympathizer or not, he's just trying to not cause a riot (because the queen WOULD set off a jihad for some reason or another).  the middle eastern aristocracy wouldn't be able to stone their own women if they let a foreigner woman mouth off now would they.  DUH!

hate obama for being a liberal, and just leave it at that.  anything else just makes your argument(s) lose credibility.

 You know,that's the most plausible theory Ive heard. Perhaps its also possible SHE just does not want to go there. As president he HAS to deal with foreign countries somewhat diplomatically. Perhaps she has just said "Im not the president,so I dont have to do it"

 The irony is,the same people out there ridicule my little fuel efficient "Lib-mobile" (its a Ford by the way,although unfortunately most of it was not actually built here),and say that Obama should make a speech every week espousing the evils of islam and tell the Saudis where they can stick it,then get in their truck that gets 14 mpg and drive around town getting a few groceries,paying bills and taking the wives cat to vet. In between they complain about the budget deficit even though that truck that gets 14mpg replaced a truck that got 8mpg and got a nice fat cash for clunkers rebate. When they complain at the gas pump about how the evil oil companies make them pay 4 dollars a gallon for gas and someone like me tells them that its not people like me who act responsibly who are financing radical Islam being exported from the middle east,consuming more oil than we can produce domesticaly and creating windfall profits that prop up middle-eastern monarchies,the response is "head in the sand" denial,ranging from blaming it on the oil companies,to a tirade against the "evil liberals" that refuse to expand drilling in alaska,ignoring the fact that its not even going to increase production 5% if we did. Its not MY lifestyle and habits that require us to maintain a working relationship with middle eastern oil producers. There is a word for people like that. Its on the tip of my tongue,but I cant quite recall. Its something like hippocampus,or hippogryph or maybe Hippocrates.... Hippopotamus??? Im sure it will come to me.

 In 2000,after 9-11,we imported 52% of the oil we needed. If we had reduced our oil consumption by half,we wouldn't need foreign oil. (and prices would drop through the floor on the international oil markets) WE could have quit cold turkey and it would have been done and now 10 years later we would have been in pretty good shape. It would have been painful,but like going on a diet and getting some excercise to lose weight we would have been better off in the long run. In 2005 however,we were importing 56% of our oil,sending even more money to the middle east. Now according to DOE 66% of the oil used in American refineries is imported. Drilling every single resource we have would increase our supply by less than 5%,for maybe 10 or 20 years. You want to stop having to play nice with the middle east,kick the oil habit.
