OMFG! Look at this venomous email being circulated by the RW!

[mykpart]

Barack Hussein Obama was born in Honolulu, Hawaii, to black Muslim Barack Hussein Obama Sr. of Nyangoma-Kogelo, Siaya District, Kenya, and White atheist, Ann Dunham of Wichita, Kansas.



When Obama was two years old, his parents divorced and his father returned to Kenya. His mother married Lolo Soetoro, a Muslim as well, moving to Jakarta with young Obama, when he was six years old.



Within six months he had learned to speak the Indonesian language Obama spent "two years in a Muslim school, then two more in a Catholic school" in Jakarta.



Obama takes great care to conceal the fact that he is a Muslim. Mitigating that information, by saying that for two years, he attended a Catholic school.



Obama's father, Barack Hussein Obama, Sr. was a radical Muslim who migrated from Kenya to Jakarta, Indonesia. He met Obama's mother, Ann Dunham—at the University of Hawaii at Manoa.



Obama's spin- meisters are now attempting to make it appear that Obama's introduction to Islam, came from his father and that influence was only temporary, which is true. Obama Sr. returned to Kenya immediately following the divorce and never again had any direct influence over his son's education. But,

Lolo Soetoro, Ann Dunham's second husband, educated his stepson Barack Hussein Obama, as a good Muslim by enrolling him in one of Jakarta's Wahabbi schools.



Wahabbism is the radical teaching that created the Muslim terrorists, who are now waging Jihad on the industrialized world. Since it is politically expedient to be a Christian when you are seeking political office in the United States, Obama joined the United Church of Christ, to help purge any notion that he is still a Muslim.




PASS THIS AROUND FOLK!!!!!!!!

I I REALLY DID LIKE THIS KID...TILL I FOUND OUT HE WENT TO MUSLIM SCHOOL....PROBABLLY A NICE GUY ....BUT DONT THINK I WANT A MUSLIM OF ANY KIND FOR PRESIDENT OF THE U. S. AM I PREDJUICE?????????

And these people will say they don't like negative campaigning!

[Mythsaje]

1. PREDJUICE?

Yes, yes, you probably are. Whatever THAT is.

[Skittles]

20. Predjuice

used in its correct context: They jury found O.J. Simpson not guilty because they believed police department was predjuice. :7

[napi21]

2. How much of this is true? At the age of 2, I don't see any

influence by his father. I can only hope that Obama is quick to answer this crap!

[malaise]

31. So what exactly is wrong with going to

a Muslim school. How is it different from going to a Catholic school?

[cool user name]

37. I'm not an Obama fan but this email is ridiculous!

How is one a Muslim if he is a Christian? Why does it even fucking matter!?!?!

And that "predjuice" is too fucking funny if it weren't so sad. We live amongst a bunch of "morans."

:wtf: :eyes:

[malaise]

41. Bingo n/t

[Lautremont]

3. AM I PREDJUICE????????? YES.

PREDJUICE AGENS ANNEEWUNN BIN TO UDDER CUNTREEZ BUTT USA. AN NOW I LERN HEE SPEEK INNDOHNEEZIAN LANGWAJE!!! DAT TO MUCH FOUR MEE. HEE NO GUD! AN BLAK TWOO!! AN DED I MENSHUN WENTO A MUZLEM SKOOL??? I FINK HEE FITH COLUMNEST FOUR DAT TERRIZTS. AN SAME NAMZ AZ TERRIST MASTARMYNDZ!!!

[silverweb]

4. Check Snopes.

It's already debunked there.

[nadinbrzezinski]

5. Not that it matters and we both know it

At leat not to the righties

[silverweb]

9. Of course.

But silence is assent, so I won't let it pass. Ever.

[mykpart]

6. Thanks - I'm sending the snopes link to the RW'er who sent me this!

[silverweb]

10. Good.

Never give this kind of thing a pass. RWers count on it, so they can continue to spread their poison.

[MsUnderstood]

12. when you receive a RW smear campaign

Make sure to search snopes, find the truth and HIT REPLY TO ALL when responding. This does 2 things:

1) Gets the truth out to everyone who received the lies
2) Pisses off the original person forwarding the e-mail (who will then be less likely to spam you in the future with this crap)

It is not good enough to reply just to the person who sent you the e-mail. Your duty, if you decide to reply is to let EVERYONE know the truth (plus it encourages spam in the internets).

[Skittles]

19. I ABSOLUTELY AGREE

I cannot help taunting them a bit too - I add, why are you so readily easy to believe and pass on propaganda you could have easily debunked with ten seconds' research on the web ???

[bling bling]

23. I absolutely agree as well.

I do it and though I get nervous that I'll piss off the OP I always know it's the right thing to do. I'm always polite about it yet still sometimes the OP ignores me and once the OP did get pissed off at me. But I've also received responses from others thanking me for debunking the e-mail. In any event like I said before it's simply the right thing to do for its own sake.

[havocmom]

43. Be sure and hit REPLY ALL instead of just 'reply'

Reach out and touch (a lot of) someones! ;)

[ck4829]

33. RW'ers are making a counter-measure against Snopes

Some of their chain emails say somewhere in the content, "I already checked with Snopes and it is real."

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=364&topic_id=3150038&mesg_id=3150038

[City Lights]

38. And other RW'ers, like my aunt, dismiss Snopes as "just another opinion."

It's infuriating. :argh:

[EFerrari]

7. Why is this being posted here.

[magellan]

8. LOL

Do these ignoramuses think the government doesn't do extensive BACKGROUND CHECKS on candidates/legislators? Congressmen/women have direct access to the POTUS never mind other sensitive agencies...If the intelligence people felt there was any question mark Obama wouldn't have been allowed to run for office, much less be elected and get near Bush**.

This is nothing but the bigoted, racist Right blowing the usual disgusting chunks into the wind.

[Frustratedlady]

11. Background counts?

If background counts, how did GW get elected? All the failures in his background should have put up a huge flag...and not the stars and stripes, either.

They are going to do more than that email to this candidate. If you thought the Swiftboaters were awful, they will look like Girl Scouts to what Obama is about to see coming at him. The so-called Christian Coalition/Religious Right will tear him to pieces.

[mykpart]

17. When I replied to this originally, I mentioned Bush.

I said that if we are to accept that the power of Christ could convert Bush from a drunk to an upstanding Christian, then we must also accept the fact that the power of Christ can change the heart of a Muslim when he converts to Christianity. The sender is a "devout" Christian.

[orleans]

13. omg! and he went to cathloic school?

(spare me)

(not you--but the freaks sending this shit around.)

[northofdenali]

14. One question -

Can we add all the whacked-out misspellings in this missive to our freeper-English translation dictionary? And is it still permissable to launch a tactical nuclear device at a freeper who butchers not only the spelling, but the grammer, of a standard, easily parsed sentence?

Predjuice = a drink for freepers when protesting affirmative action.

Folk = error made by freeper who forgot the location of the "s" key.

I I = just a fucking idiot.

:evilgrin:

I ignore shit like this, or do a "return to sender, you are a complete idiot" email and block sender from any further communication. Who needs to waste bandwidth on people whose collective IQ is less than that of a sea anemone?

[EstimatedProphet]

34. I'd like to

But I can't get to Demopedia anymore, so I can't update it.

[sakabatou]

15. PREDJUICE!

The liquid that the KKK ask for!

[MsKandice01]

16. Predjuice?!??!

Is this like a new liquid medication that reduces swelling?

[LynnTheDem]

18. "background counts"? Like being AWOL? Convicted criminal?

How about 3-time bankrupt?

Or a wife who killed her boyfriend?

Or is it just "Muslim; the new Jew" background that counts?

Brownshirts thought any Jewish "background" was a bad thing.

But shhhh! Don't compare rightwingnuts to Brownshirts!

[havocmom]

42. But, but, but... JESUS forgave THOSE backgrounds

and any winger knows Jesus was OK with casting stones at Muslims, even though Muslims weren't around in Jesus' day.

Background counts unless it's a GOP background evidently. And anybody with actual experience with other cultures is just too suspect to entrust with policy dealing with other cultures. Sorta like the recent GOP attacks on real actual American Veterans while favoring draft dodging chicken hawks for CIC of our Armed Forces.

Dark Ages America... coming to a street corner near you.

Gads, I am glad I am old. Sorry about the mess us geezers are leaving you young people.

21. Propaganda Debunking Forum

Perhaps we should just post these emails in the debunking forum so we don't have to read them for the next one-two years and inadvertently perpetuate what's in them.

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topics&forum=284

[mykpart]

22. Good idea! Thanks.

[Bluebear]

24. AM I PREDJUICE??????????? SERIESLY!!!!1111 AM I!!????????

[calimary]

25. "I really did like this 'KID'"??? I'm surprised the author of this email

didn't come straight out and just say "boy". :eyes:

Maybe that republi-CON jerk ed rogers wrote this and started sending it around. He's the one who made a huge deal out of Barack HUSSEIN Obama with every other breath he took on a recent "Hardball."

It does tell you one thing, very clearly: They are TERRIFIED of Obama, because they fear he really could win. Which makes him all the more appealing to me. Anybody who could put all those knickers in a knot can't be all bad!

[The Straight Story]

26. You sure Hillary was not sending this out ;)

:rofl:

[Hatalles]

27. The Islamophobia is killing me.

:sigh:

[B Calm]

28. I can't believe anybody would be stupid enough to believe this

e-mail!

[izzie]

29. My dear,fundamentalists think JC was blond, blue eyes and male

and I am sure born in the Old South.

[EstimatedProphet]

30. It looks like it was written by a barely conscious retarded kid

Wait...

[NI4NI]

32. An atheist mother?

An atheist mother who sends her child to catholic school? Interesting!

[LostInAnomie]

35. Darn, and I bet if he didn't have an Islamic past they would have voted for him!

What rotten luck!

How fucking pathetic are these people? Their argument basically amounts to "Obama is a bad human being because his father and step-father are Muslims... even though he is not."

[fidgeting wildly]

36. Got this from my grandfather the other day.

I hit "Reply All" and set the record straight as best I could. I usually ignore his emails, but this one was just over the top offensive.

[City Lights]

39. I'm always amazed by the number of RW losers who have nothing better

to do than sit around making up shit like this. Get a life, morans!

[bdamomma]

40. they are cranking up their slime machine again.

these attacks must stop.

[Imagevision]

44. Quite obviously the repukes are worried about Obama being elected as their new president...

Obama wouldn't have taken 3 days to help the people in new Orleans as they died waiting for president Bush!!
