This opinion article was in the New York Times the other day and it got me thinking. I've spent time talking with some Muslims here recently who say that Obama is looking out for the interests of Muslims, because the media always says so. But does he really? (Not that his opponent is any better at all.)

Here's the link to the article: http://www.nytimes.c...dit_th_20120905

If that can't be read, I'll try to copy it and quote it here. :)

As-salamu 'alaikum wa rahmatu Allahi wa barakatuh

I don't think Obama is looking out for the interest of Muslims, nor do most Muslim whom I have heard talk about him. I believe he is looking out for his own interests and that of the US first. Muslims most likely are last on his list of priorities.

I read the link and I tell you Obama is not looking out for the interest of Muslims, Christian, or America. He has successfully run this country to the ground and will drive it through the earth if he is reelected. As far as Obama/US relations with Israle he is trying to kiss enough donky butt to get reelected and that is it.
