unfortunately for him...his name is just too damn close to sounding and being spelled like "Osama".
and i like him too......
Thats what the Republcan crowd (and the rest of the democratic field, for that matter) or hoping for/banking on.
i think the American public (although generally uniformed or misinformed) deserve a little more credit than this, and i think his opponets putting all their eggs in the name basket are doing themselves more harm than good in the long run.

I agree. I don't see anyone not voting for him because of his name.
Now, the things like the "madrassa" BS, on the other hand, could be a problem.
It's a town full of losers and I'm pulling out of here to win

i don't know. i think after camapigns are played out people will be able to base their decisions on other things. Things of real substance. If even a few months from now, people are still making a big deal out of the fact that Obama's muslim father had him enrolled in a standard muslim school as a wee lad i'll be surprised (and very disappointed).

Post some links of happy muslims wanting to live side by side with christians and jews.
There are tons at my school.... Big muslim population, not one has bitched about living with christians or jews. Christians on the other hand talk about how their religion is better then the others on a regular basis.
Believe me, when I was growin up, I thought the worst thing you could turn out to be was normal, So I say freaks in the most complementary way. Here's a song by a fellow freak - E.V

Um, so is Barrack Obama (a Christian, that is). Oops.

People - and especially those claiming to be Christian - are directed to love all people. I'm thinking that's one many are missing out on.
...are those who've helped us.
Right 'round the corner could be bigger than ourselves.

Yeah, hippiemom, you know atheists aren't important to Christians :rolleyes: we will burn in hell.
Miller, this is way too confusing why did you have to post this? I mean, you hate everyone that isn't a white Christian American...
Are you telling me you love Osama as well?
This thread is too weird.

I am not a pacifist. But i am showing that their are Christians out there who can forgive such a vile and dispicable person as Osama Bin Laden.
But if it was about atheists or hippies (non-Christian hippies) or communists, would you feel the same way?

FI they forgave obl sure.......but a mosque forgiving a westerner usually never happens.
Usually never happens? How would you know it usually never happens, talked to a lot of muslims lately? Did you do a survey? What is this based on?

I know many muslims who like side by side, in peace, with Christians and jews. But since you asked for links:
