Please Expound Mr. President
 

"We will convey our deep appreciation for the Islamic faith, which has done so much over so many centuries to shape the world for the better, including my own country," Obama said.

LOL , comical if it werent such BS.

Maybe he'll say 'they developed paper, which allowed me to print


One Trillion Dollars'

give him this much.

he probably understands paper wasn't invented less than 700 years ago.

and that egypt wasn't always arab. and, for that matter, arab's aren't all muslims.

it's that kind of subtle nuance that gives him a leg up on numerologists.

Im waiting for the list of great things that Islam has contributed .....

some excerpts:


Muslim astronomers were the first to establish observatories, like the one built at Mugharah by Hulagu, the son of Genghis Khan, in Persia, and they invented instruments such as the quadrant and astrolabe, which led to advances not only in astronomy but in oceanic navigation, contributing to the European age of exploration.


Ibn Sina (d. 1037), better known to the West as Avicenna, was perhaps the greatest physician until the modern era. His famous book, Al-Qanun fi al-Tibb, remained a standard textbook even in Europe, for over 700 years. Ibn Sina's work is still studied and built upon in the East.


i did a search when i saw you ask. quite a lot of info out there. if you really want to know what they've contributed, there seems to be quite a bit. as for any one list of everything, i didn't find that. but i didn't realize muslims 'invented' algebra, that most modern medical instruments are almost exactly like the ones invented by a muslim, or that the taj mahal was built by a muslim.

our money isn't printed on paper

I'm just saying

I was wondering the same thing. This is a pretty dumb thread!

I remember from some history class that Muslims in Spain and Portugal were terrorized by Christians and forced to convert or leave or be killed and many sailed with or following Columbus to the US and were part of the early settlers.

And do you really think Obama would make a statement like that and not be able to back it up? He had to know that would be Viagra like to Fox and the right.

And I'm playing 666 in the Pick 3 and PowerBall today

I think the TV guy is available for a cabinet position

Hassan Chop

Someone suggested that I call them the devil and be done with it.

as for deranged... you just don' get my humor.

I think Obama can say or do anything and the Opologists will rush to his defense.

When it's a brilliant strategy, I'll defend it.

and aren't you the pot-kettle-black of those who defend him?

yeah pretty much but it isn't lke everything he does is brilliant.
now the word Opologist is brilliant
I should get it copyrighted

Come on...NOTHING he does you will ever agree with. At least I can list things I don't agree with him on...National Healthcare, the Vet Insurance Bill, the Estate Tax..

I forgot that. The Hatfields and McCoys I think? :)
