Kamal Saleem: Obama Attended DC Mosque On Christmas While Vacationing In Hawaii

While speaking to Rick Wiles on “Trunews” last week, phony ex-terrorist and Religious Right idol Kamal Saleem alleged that President Obama attended a mosque in Washington, D.C. on Christmas Day…while he was vacationing in Hawaii.

“We see him on Christmas, he goes to the mosque, on Christmas Day he’s in a mosque in Washington D.C. taking his shoes off to celebrate that day on Christmas Day in a Washington D.C. mosque,” he said.

-snip- (recording of the interview)

In every year of his presidency — 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013 — Obama and his family were in his home state of Hawaii during Christmas. But perhaps Obama actually spent Christmas surreptitiously flying from Hawaii to Washington to secretly attend a mosque and managed to do so without anyone in the media reporting on it ... after all, it’s only a brisk, ten hour flight.​

Maybe Obama was going to a mosque with his ninja-Islamist babysitter that Saleem has warned about, or maybe Saleem was referring to a phony article from the satirical National Report about Obama attending a mosque on July 4th.

I've attended services in all kinds of places of worship.

Not a mosque yet, but I would probably learn some things if I did.

is my argument to any one who tries the "Obama is a Muslim" argument. SO WHAT??!! That's what our country is about. It's none of our business unless he's trying to establish Islam as our state religion an he's not. It drives me bananas!

I imagine that would disqualify me for President in this political minefield we have today. So crazy.

It's probably not a stretch to assume that means Mr. Saleem would like to pose himself as a Christian (I've never heard of him, so I don't know). He's aware that one of those Commandments is a prohibition against lying, isn't he? If not, perhaps he should spend more time familiarizing himself with the tenets of Christianity and less time concocting lies.
