Let The Swift Boating of Obama Begin
Some politispam making its way around the internet these days. At least the right wing is getting a little more creative these days and not just falling back on the old classic “Don’t vote for no n****r” routine from generations past.
By the way, do you think the person that wrote this has ever used the word “Muslim” without “radical” in front of it? (and we aren’t even beginning to touch on the discriminatory premise inherent in this whole thing, that simply being Muslim would in itself pose some kind of threat to American society).
Interesting…… Everyone needs to know this before going to the polls.
Subject: LET US REMAIN ALERT………………..
Probable U. S. presidential candidate, Barack Hussein Obama was born in Honolulu, Hawaii, to Barack Hussein Obama, Sr., a Muslim from Nyangoma-Kogel, Kenya and Ann Dunham, an atheist from Wichita, Kansas.
Obama’s parents met at the University of Hawaii.When Obama was two years old, his parents divorced.
His father returned to Kenya.
His mother then married Lolo Soetoro, a radical Muslim from Indonesia.
When Obama was 6 years old, the family relocated to Indonesia.
Obama attended a Muslim school in Jakarta.
He also spent two years in a Catholic school.Obama takes great care to conceal the fact that he is a Muslim.
He is quick to point out that he was once a Muslim, but that he also attended Catholic school.Obama’s political handlers are attempting to make it appear that Obama’s introduction to Islam came via his father, and that this influence was temporary at best.
In reality, the senior Obama returned to Kenya soon after the divorce, and never again had any direct influence over his son’s education.
Lolo Soetoro, the second husband of Obamas mother, Ann Dunham, introduced his stepson to Islam.
Osama was enrolled in a Wahabi school in Jakarta.
Wahabism is the radical teaching that is followed by the Muslim terrorists who are now waging Jihad against the western world.Since it is politically expedient to be a Christian when seeking major public office in the United States, Barack Hussein Obama has joined the United Church of Christ in an attempt to downplay his Muslim background.
Let us all remain alert concerning Obamas expected presidential candidacy.

This phony madrassa story has been discredited for at least two months. CNN sent a reporter to Indonesia and found the school in question to be a secular school with students of many different religions. Do you do your homework? Why are you spreading this further? Unless you are part of thee swiftboating?

Kevin is correct in that this whole madrassa story is a sham, though I am incredulous as to what the point of his statement is in implying that somehow the posting of this phony email is in some way endorsing it or trying to promote it. Actually it is just the opposite. We at USTV do indeed try our best to ‘do our homework’, thus the whole point of the labeling of this junk politispam email as another form of ’swiftboating’ by the anonymous entities which are spreading it, in order to discredit the political legitimacy of Barack Obama. I figured that providing a Snopes link thoroughly debunking this nonsense would have been a clue as to our take on it. It is posted in order to bring more enlightenment to the extent of disinformation and its mode of transmission via the internet that these underhanded political operatives will use to smear and distort political figures that they see as potential threats to their own self-serving interests. Hopefully, readers will learn by such examples to apply a more critical perspective to the information they receive regarding these issues, and where this information comes from.
