Just wanted things to be a little fear!

The country is about to enter rec cession, she needs someone who has B**LS to do the job,

certainly not someone who will pop under pressure.

it is fitting that we try and be fair......

Educate your self.

P.S

RoadRage you don't mind me forwarding this do you...Thanks

I think everyone has received this thing 10 times or more by now. My husband sent this email to his DAD the other day... and I encourage all Obama supporters to hit "Reply to All" when they get the next one and send something like this along. We need to start cleaning up these rumors!



Barack Obama is a Muslim?

No, actually he is not. He's Christian, and he's been a Christian for long before he ever considered a Presidential Run. (http://www.snopes.com/politics/obama/muslim.asp ) Not that it's important to everyone, but we wanted to clear it up. There are certainly a lot of lies on the Internet about it... and the email just sent proves that.

Click here (http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/article/2007/de... /) for who started the rumor that Obama took his oath on the Koran. In actuality, he took his oath using his own personal Christian bible.

Click here (http://www.beliefnet.com/story/206/story_20604_1.html ) for the representative that DID use the Koran. His name is Keith Ellison, and you can call him a Muslim because he is, and he's proud of it! Freedom of Religion - what a novel idea in the United States of America!

Also, note that there is NO requirement in US law to take the oath on the Christian bible or any book for that matter. When the time comes for new Representatives to be sworn in, no Bible, Koran, or other book is involved. The Speaker of the House asks everyone to stand and raise their right hands. All 435 members are sworn in right then, at their desks, at the same time. That's the swearing in ceremony.

Later, a Representative may schedule an "unofficial" ceremony to be photographed for the voters in his/her district. THAT ceremony is set up by the Representative's office and can include anything he/she wants... a judge, a friend certified to give an oath of allegiance, and any book the Representative chooses (Bibles, Koran's and Law Books have all been used). He could even choose to use no book at all. Also, that ceremony has no official standing... it's just for the voters back home.

Something else to consider. The US Constitution states that in Article 6, section 3, that, "...no religious test shall ever be required as a qualification to any office or public trust under the United States".

Additionally, If you really do want to know more of the TRUTH about the Senator from Illinois, click here (http://www.barackobama.com ). Obama has been more then forthcoming about his past.

I'm sure you did not intend to purposely spread lies about Obama - but by sending out emails like this before checking them for facts you continue to allow others with a political agenda to use you for their candidates gain. I hope that in light of this new information, you'll spread the truth about Barack Obama. You certainly don't have to vote for him or support his policies. But, I'd appreciate it if you also didn't spread false rumors about his past to further someone else's political agenda.

Thanks,
