Pat Robertson is convinced Obama is Muslim...

And Robertson makes up yet another wild accusation.

Pat Robertson: Obama 'Trained' To Protect Islam

Submitted by Brian Tashman on Wednesday, 10/1/2014 12:00 pm

Pat Robertson is outraged that the district attorney investigating the beheading of a woman in Oklahoma said that the perpetrator may have been motivated by racial animosity rather than religious extremism, finding that the assailant was seeking revenge on former coworkers whom he believed got him fired over bigoted remarks about white people.

Robertson, however, thinks he knows more about the case than the local DA, arguing on “The 700 Club” today that the government is trying to hide the fact that the culprit is a Muslim convert.

“Most murderers don’t cut off the heads of their victims but the Islamic people do,” he said, before linking the purported politically correct cover-up to President Obama: “We’ve got somebody in the White House whose father, I believe, he came from Kenya, he may have been a communist, whether he was Islamic we’re not sure, but Obama was trained, his stepfather was indeed a Muslim and they lived in Indonesia for a number of years so he’s sympathetic.”

Robertson has repeatedly suggested that Obama is a secret Muslim.

The President is Muslem? Really? Phil has said some outlandish things but this takes the cake.


I think this is all about getting attention. In the last year, he has had more headlines then anytime of his life. I think he is playing some weird game. How can I shock and awe Americans more everyday.

the theory is that Obama conspired with the DA to attribute the attack to a black man's hatred of white people. Of all the things, Obama is going to do that?

read today. Behold:

http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2014/10/birther-evidence-that-michelle-obama-was-born-a-man-pretty-much-as-dumb-as-youd-expect/

The birther fringe has been touting some highly dubious “evidence” that Michelle Obama was born a man and so is biologically incapable of being the mother of her own children.

The conspiracy theory is based on the alleged lack of publicly available photos of Barack and Michelle Obama’s daughters, Sasha and Malia, when they were babies or very young – although adherents freely admit the First Family prefers to limit the girls’ exposure to the media.

“Barack Obama and the First Lady have kept a tight lid on photos of their precious daughters being released by the press,” writes Jodi Swann at Mr. Conservative. “Still, we have seen a startling lack of pictures from the early years of Malia and Sasha. Now we have evidence that this may not be due to the fact that Michelle has ordered the press not to release them, but that they do not exist.”
