Default Is Obama's Background A Reason For More Scrutiny?

How many think Obama's religion past and present is a reason for full scrutiny? Kind of hard to keep it away ... this article pins the scrutiny on Hillary but I'm sure the G.O.P. is spinning it's wheels as well.

He doesn't interest me as a candidate so I really have no opinion here.

**** UPDATE, 01/19/07: Looks like Hillary Clinton's camp agrees with me and has dug up more info that confirms my suspicions about Obama and his Muslim background, including his attendance at a Wahabbi (ie., extremist Sunni) Madrassa (Islamic religious academy). Hillary's camp says Obama is covering up his Muslim past.

Many months ago, readers began asking me whether Barack Obama is Muslim. Since he identifies as a Christian, I said, "no," and responded that he was not raised by his Kenyan father.

But, then, I decided to look further into Obama's background. His full name--as by now you have probably heard--is Barack Hussein Obama, Jr. Hussein is a Muslim name, which comes from the name of Ali's son--Hussein Ibn Ali. And Obama is named after his late Kenyan father, the late Barack Hussein Obama, Sr., apparently a Muslim.

And while Obama may not identify as a Muslim, that's not how the Arab and Muslim Streets see it. In Arab culture and under Islamic law, if your father is a Muslim, so are you. And once a Muslim, always a Muslim. You cannot go back. In Islamic eyes, Obama is certainly a Muslim. He may think he's a Christian, but they do not.

He's just another smooth talking "con man" but the politically correct a$s kissers will all gush, fawn and
p!ss their pants over him, the Liberal Media might try to hide some of his ***** but the new media (talk radio-cable-fox-bloggers) they will tell us all the things Katie/Cronkite don't want us to know.

Poor Old Pant Suit Hillary, she has "Two Minority's" to fight now (Richardson) she has to tread softly Obooma's people are just waiting to use the "RACE CARD".

There is some guy who worked for Bill Clinton ready to write a book that trashes Hillary. Gotta love these democrats ... something I used to say over and over in the forum.

They don't just complain about the right and the G.O.P.

They complain about everything and have way less togetherness than the G.O.P. - this is how we got stuck with Bush .... Wake up liberals and democrats // get your act together or the G.O.P. will win again.

You would think those "wretched clintons" would want no part of a presidential run, don't they realize that every bit of their "dirty laundry" will be right out there for the whole world to see and they have plenty of it, the world has changed, "Billy Blue Dress" won't be able to keep the "New Media" quiet, O'Reilly, Fox, Rush, Internet, The Blogger the Clintons can't shut these people up like they did CBS NBC ABC PBS, and they don't have Dan Rodent Rather anymore.

The Republicans should right now be as happy as Pigs in *****.

Hillary/Obooma/Richadson/Kerry sure winners for the GOP.

you live in a complete fantasy world... almost every statement in this post is patently false....

do you actually believe your own *****, or do you just repeat it over and over in the hopes of fooling others?

Obama and his alleged madrassa education is equal to Kerry and the swiftboat campaign... the dems need to get their crap together or they will disintegrate once again. The whole thing about Obama is the figment of the right wing's use of the internet to spread rumours. Fox is willingly complicit also.

Of course, as a presidential candidate, his biography should be reported and discussed, but as the link you provided said, the Democrats haven't released the info, and to the extent it's been liked, it's also a matter of public record, appearing in Wikipedia for quite awhile. So, to link it to Hillary, is yet anothre example of unethical Republican behavior.

But there's more (and I'm choosing these liberal links, because they provide well-documented and linked summaries of what the right-wing is trying to do).

I think if the Republicans continue with their unethical behavior, it will backfire on them again.

I've been telling you all that Obama is making a mistake by running prematurely. He should have run for governor first, and then for president. The more time that passes, the more exposed his personality and resume will become. History proves that governors do far better in presidential elections. Obama is a very intriguing person, but he's far too green.

I agree with you (heaven forbid!), but I wonder if he's running so as to position himself as a national figure. I honestly don't think he can win the nomination since he's so green he can't possibly have much of a field organization.
