HMMMMMMM: OBAMA'S CURIOUS AND REVEALING EXTEMPORANEOUS REMARK DURING HIS MILWAUKEE SPEECH: HE ACCUSED HIS FOES OF TREATING HIM LIKE A DOG

VIA HOT AIR:

MEDIAITE:

President Barack Obama came out swinging in Wisconsin today in a speech that, while making clear references to policy and future plans, didn’t shy away from tackling the opposition. The day’s soundbite, however, wasn’t aimed at the Tea Party, the Republicans, or any political group in general, but at “powerful interests” who “talk about me like a dog.”

The comment was in reference to his accomplishments as president, specifically to financial reform and the hurdles he found while trying to get it passed in Congress:

“I wanted to be stronger than it was before. And over the past two years, that’s meant taking on some powerful interests. Some powerful interests that have been setting the agenda in Washington for a long time, and they’re not always happy with me. They talk about me like a dog. That’s not in my prepared remarks, but it’s true.”

A Barack Obama that says things that aren’t written in his prepared remarks? Who in 2008 would have expected that?

WHY DID HE SAY A DOG!?

NO ONE HAS LITERALLY CALLED HIM A DOG, SO OBAMA MUST MEAN IT FIGURATIVELY.

WHY WOULD HE CHOOSE DOG?

COULD IT BE HIS MUSLIM/INDONESIAN ROOTS SHOWING?

I THINK SO.

HERE'S WHY:

WIKI:

The majority of both Sunni and Shi'a Muslim jurists consider dogs to be ritually unclean, though jurists from the Sunni Maliki school disagree.^[25] However, outside their ritual uncleanness, Islamic fatāwā, or rulings, enjoin that dogs be treated kindly or else be freed.^[26]

Muslims generally cast dogs in a negative light because of their ritual impurity. The story of the Seven Sleepers of Ephesus in the Qur'an (and also the role of the dog in early Christianity) is one of the striking exceptions.^[27] Muhammad didn't like dogs according to Sunni tradition, and most practicing Muslims do not have dogs as pets.^[14] It is said that angels do not enter a house which contains a dog. Though dogs are not allowed for pets, they are allowed to be kept if used for work, such as guarding the house or farm, or when used for hunting purposes.

According to a generally unaccepted Sunni tradition attributed to Muhammad, black dogs are evil, or even devils, in animal form. This report reflects the pre-Islamic Arab mythology and the vast majority of Ulema (Muslim jurists) viewed it to be falsely attributed to Muhammad.^[25]

Another Sunni tradition attributed to Muhammad commands Muslims not trade or deal in dogs.^[28] According to El Fadl, this shows the cultural biases against dogs as a source of moral danger.^[25] However, the Hanafi scholars, the largest school of ritual law in Sunni Islam, allow all trading in dogs.

According to one story, Muhammad is said to have informed a prostitute who had seen a thirsty dog hanging about a well and given it water to drink. Allah forgave her because of that good deed.^[14][29]

In a tradition found in the Sunni hadith book, al-Muwatta, Muhammad states that the company of dogs voids a portion of a Muslim’s good deeds.^[30]

THE OVERWHELMING TRUTH IS THAT DOG IS A CURSE TO MUSLIMS. (AND "RUNNING DOG" A CURSE TO CHINESE AND KOREAN SOCIALISTS.)

AND E-V-I- D-E-N-T-L-Y IT'S A CURSE TO OBAMA, TOO.

IT'S WHAT POPPED INTO HIS HEAD IN AN ADMITTEDLY UNSCRIPTED MOMENT.

A FREUDIAN SLIP - A KINSLEY GAFFE.

A REVEALING SLIP OF THE TONGUE.

NOT UNLIKE WHEN HE SAID HE WAS A MUSLIM IN AN INTERVIEW DURING THE CAMPAIGN:

OR WHEN HE TOLD JOE THE PLUMBER HE WANTED TO SPREAD THE WEALTH AROUND:

ISN'T IT FASCINATING THAT ALL OF THESE SLIPS ALWAYS "ERR" ON THE SIDE OF OBAMA BEING A MUSLIM OR IF NOT A MUSLIM, THEN A SOCIALIST?

ISN'T IT REVEALING?

YES.
