Something to think about as Obama becomes president of the US. :
He is 44% Arabic, 12% black, 50% white. The morning newspapers will say he is the first BLACK president, but actually he is more Arab than black.
Remember. Actions speak louder than words. He can get up on the podium and say wonderous things he will do for this country, but let us see how he really operates while in the most powerful office in the world. I hope for all of our sakes, he is a good president.

Wait wait wait, what happened to OMG FIRE WILL RAZE THE EARTH THE SECOND WE ELECT THE ANTICHRIST!!!!!?
Now it's just "We'd better hope he's a good president". A few days ago that wasn't even a possibility
But then, I guess you guys have had a lot of practice at constantly revising what's definitely about to happen as soon as it becomes clear it hasn't, right?
You do know that The President swears to uphold and defend the Constitution just as any American does. He has no need for other irrelevancies like this fantasy book of yours.
Oh, don't worry about President Obama. He hasn't been sworn into office yet and already the mood of this country is starting to improve and the rest of the world are starting to think we're not that stupidly insane, after all.
Despite the fact that you don't know how percentages work, how can someone be 44% or 12% something? As much as I know genetics it ought to be 50%, 25%, 12,5%... etc.
@Mortok:
One way it could work
Black Grandfather + Non-Black Grandmother -> Half-Black Grandmother
Half-Black Grandmother + Non-Black Grandfather -> Quarter-Black Father
Quarter-Black Father + Non-Black Mother -> Eighth-Black Son
One-eight is 12.5%, which some might round down to 12%.
Where did you get your bullshit percentages from? The official Ku Klux Klan site? Some extreme Republican site?
Obama is half black and half white. And he is not Muslim. Have you ever heard him say "Allahu Akhbar" in any speech he has made so far? No he says "God bless" instead. You call that a Muslim?
I think Obama is a bad choice for a president but not the same way you insane fucks and the dumbass Republicans think. McCain would have been just as bad.

44% Arabic
Yeah, I'm 37% German, 83% English.
Punnett squares confuse me too.
"Remember. Actions speak louder than words."
Yeah, and your words are full of shit. Come back with some proof.
Obama is not Arabic in any sense of the word. Just because his middle name is Arabic doesn't mean that he is. His father was Kenyan, thus African, not Arabic. His mother was white. So, stop spouting your lying nonsense.
He brought his own "holy book". The media has "blocked out" just what that "holy book" of his was, but a good guess would be the Quran.
No it hasn't. It was his own personal (Christian) Bible. He was sworn in by Dick Cheney, for chrissake! If it was the Quran, does Earthling think the Republicans would have "blocked" that out? What a moron. It was Congressman Keith Ellison who was sworn in on a Quran. Ellison a Muslim. He's never hidden the fact, and neither has the press.
Lies make Baby Jesus cry.
But, to give this one credit, at least he's willing to give the new Prez a chance!
He is 44% Arabic, 12% black, 50% white.
I'm 106% sure that you are home schooled!
Africa =/= Islam
Not even remotely. Kenya is mostly Christian.
Honestly, though, the whole "long bearded, beturbaned villain" thing is just so old. What, exactly, would you expect if a Muslim miraculously DID get the presidency? For all the praise of democracy out there, people are awfully worried about the president bossing them around.
You have no idea how much I hate that - it's a human being, not a race horse!
Are you scared for your children's future yet??
No. As much as it torques your fundie nads, it takes more than vague "allegations" to cause me concern about a person. To be frank, I would dispense with the "hand on a holy book" part of any oath of office.
I hope for all of our sakes, he is a good president.
No, you don't. Your dearest hope is that Obama makes a dog's breakfast of his shot at the big chair so you can come back and tell everyone "I told you so".
what, ALL of the media blocked it out? every single news station?
yeah, i'm sure fox news would've blocked that one out.
My only fear is that he is not 0% fundie.
The funniest thing is that you morons don't even realize he is a much more devout Christian then McCain is. McCain discovered his fundamentalism late in life, just about the time that he realized he would never get the Republican nomination if he didn't start going places like Bob Jones University.
You are AConcernedDouchebag.
Re: the math:
Hate to break it to you Earthling, but no one in Congress is sworn in on any religious book. It's just "raise your right hand and repeat after me." Some later stage a photo op using a bible (or as Ellison did, Jefferson's Quran) but it's just a photo op. There's no requirement for the president to use any book either, and an argument could be made that doing so violates the Constitution. Personally, I think it would be more impressive to have someone sworn in on Webster's Unabridged Dictionary -- it's a much bigger book!
but actually he is more Arab than black.
Well technically, if we go by your statistics, he's more white than Arab.
Rallymodeller: 44+12+50=106%.
Math is just for those elitists that aren't part of the Real America, you betcha. Also.
44% AFRICAN - Arabs are a SEMITIC race, as are the original Jews.
"Remember. Actions speak louder than words. He can get up on the podium and say wonderous things he will do for this country, but let us see how he really operates while in the most powerful office in the world. I hope for all of our sakes, he is a good president."
And so say all of us, the Bush era was the biggest catastrophy ever, yet he still fools Rapture Ready.
refused to place his hand on the Holy Bible when he was elected into the US senate about 3 years ago.
There is no law that says one must use the Bible to swear into office. None. Nada. Zip. So please STFU and stop trying to make this an issue because it's not.
Y'know, you're neglecting your own stated "fact" that Barack's more white than Arabic.
Wait...
44 + 12 + 50 = ... 106?

Really. You guys can't figure out simple math?
"let us see how he really operates while in the most powerful office in the world. I hope for all of our sakes, he is a good president.
It's quite true that Obama's father and step-father were both Muslim and that he spent a part of his childhood in a Muslim country (Indonesia), BUT that does not mean that he was raised in the 'Muslim tradition'. And, even if he was, so what?
I'm not Christian, but I am not afraid for my children's future just because America's Presidents all are. Moron.
First, your math makes Baby Jeebus cry. Obama is not 106% anything.
Second, his father was Kenyan. Which is nowhere near the Arabian Sea or Saudi Arabia or any part of the ME. If anything, he's of African descent.
Third, no, no I am not scared for my children's future, because people like you have just been denied the highest chair there is, and that means the world is at least not going to blow up because some country fried retard wants to hug Jeebus.
"He is 44% Arabic, 12% black, 50% white."
That's 106% you fucking moron.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
