Here's the perfect answer to "conservatives" who say Obama went to an "Islamic" school in Indonesia
They'll ignore the fact that he went to a public school, and not an Islamic madrasa,
so don't even bother with that one.
However, when they start whining about his having been to an "Islamic" school, (and
you know how deep sixth grade indoctrination goes), just tell them that you are greatly
encouraged by the fact that they have FINALLY come around to our view that prayers and
religion do not belong in schools.
Be prepared to duck, just in case.....

How come the DUmmies never ask why he turned his back on the religion of his father and grandfather?

Here's the perfect answer to "conservatives" who say Obama went to an "Islamic" school in Indonesia

http://www.danielpipes.org/article/5354
* "Interviews with dozens of former classmates, teachers, neighbors and friends show that Obama was not a regular practicing Muslim when he was in Indonesia" – implying he was an irregularly practicing Muslim.
* "Obama occasionally followed his stepfather to the mosque for Friday prayers, a few neighbors said" confirming that he did pray in the mosque.
* "Obama's 3rd-grade teacher at the Catholic school, who lived near the family [said that] ‘Rarely, Barry went to the mosque with Lolo'" – confirming that Obama attended mosque services.
All this matters, for if Obama once was a Muslim, he is now what Islamic law calls a murtadd (apostate), an ex-Muslim converted to another religion who must be executed. Were he elected president of the United States, this status, clearly, would have large potential implications for his relationship with the Muslim world.
In sum: Obama was an irregularly practicing Muslim who rarely or occasionally prayed with his step-father in a mosque. This precisely substantiates my statement that he "for some years had a reasonably Muslim upbringing under the auspices of his Indonesian step-father."
Therefore, what MMfA calls the "Obama-Muslim falsehood" is in fact confirmed by both articles as truthful and accurate.
Calling this a falsehood is in itself a falsehood.
