Conservative pundits: Obama summit logo a âMuslim crescentâ
Posted: Apr 15, 2010
Wednesday, April 14th, 2010 -- 3:09 pm
For the second time in the past few months, conservative commentators see something sinister in an Obama administration logo.
Following a controversy in February over what some said was a "Muslim crescent" in the logo of the US Missile Defense Agency, some commentators are saying they see the same thing in the thin, white crescent that borders the logo of President Barack Obama's Nuclear Security Summit.
"That’s weird … Obama’s Nuclear Summit logo is an Islamic crest," writes Jim Hoft at Gateway Pundit.
The new talking point appears to have started with a New York Post column by Michael Goodwin published on Wednesday.
"The crescent, often with a single or multiple stars, is the main symbol of Islam," Goodwin wrote. "So now there is something like it at an official presidential event, prominently displayed in photographs being beamed around the world."

Jon Stewart's take on this ridiculousness . . . - Realy?
[ In Reply To ..]His brilliance never disappoints

It would be impossible to top Stewarts hysterical ridicle. - Love that guy. nm

Stewart is no longer funny in some ways. He needs - some other subject.. sounding ignorant.nm
[ In Reply To ..]nm
He calls 'em as he sees 'em - sm
[ In Reply To ..]No, ignorant is when someone can't see the brilliance of someone like Jon Stewart having the cojones to call out the ridiculous garbage rhetoric that Fox is constantly regurgitating. I call it pure genius!! I'm so sorry his humor is over your head . . . Maybe you should just stick with the simpletons on Fox and leave the intelligent humor to the rest of us
No, he is not an authority on ANYTHING. He is a - comedian---should get his nose out.nm
[ In Reply To ..]nm
So much for freedom of speech. - Why so touchy?
[ In Reply To ..]Strike a nerve, does he? Not only is he a gifted comedian, he is intelligent and armed with plenty of fact. No wonder you don't like him. Fact is a foreign concept to most posters from the right side except for Backward Typist. All they know how to do is explode whenever anybody dares to post something other than the petty and trite.
Oh, I used to like Stewart, but he is getting boooorrring.nm - mtt22
[ In Reply To ..]nm
I have a cure for that -- - sm
[ In Reply To ..]quit watching him, then!! Like I said before, leave his brilliant intelligent humor to those us who appreciate it
LOL! The left believes Obama, showing they have - no idea what a "fact" is from fiction.nm
[ In Reply To ..]nm
Obama and Stewart are not one in the same. - Please try to stay on task. nm
[ In Reply To ..]nm
Tbots can't stay on task. They're like political Stepford Wives. (nm) - Nikki
[ In Reply To ..]NM
Every time you make a point with them they - Change the Subject
[ In Reply To ..]Which is why they can not carry on an intelligent conversation but would rather stoop to one-line zinger subject lines.
ROFLMAO. What an appropro analogy. - Even the men fall right in line with this. nm
[ In Reply To ..]nm
The only thing scarey about this report is that - there are people out there
[ In Reply To ..]that actually take these Focks reports seriously. This is about as founded in reality as a bad acid trip, complete with full-blown hallucinations and pretty colors. Sheesh!
But what about the brainwashed Obama supporters? - They live out of reality.nm
[ In Reply To ..]nm
Could you please confine your responses to my posts - to the subject at hand?
[ In Reply To ..]Or is that beyond your capacity? Reminder: Wingnuts who hallucinate Moslem crescents around every corner and John Stewart. Those are the active partipants in this thread
Pick up a book once in a while....or is that beyond your - capacity? Reminder:
[ In Reply To ..]O worshippers who blindly follow hoping for MORE freebies and living off the dole will soon realize that dole has run dry!
Your statement makes it obvious you don't read before you speak.... his loyalty was made very clear by him in black and white.
Apparently, this IS too much to ask. Broken records - are such a bore.
[ In Reply To ..]nm
No, you're the kind that just doesn't want to answer any - questions.....sm
[ In Reply To ..]He stated plainly he was take sides with his Muslim brothers if things got ugly.....what do YOU think that means?
But I suppose with all round and round double talk, you'll manage NOT to answer that either or find some flimsy excuse for what he "really" meant!
More than happy to answer questions on tpots - collective crescent halluciations and
[ In Reply To ..]the Focks Muse conspiracy mill, since that is the subject of the post. Diversionary generic O insults from posters constitutionally incapable of addressing a subject directly or taking responsibility for their party's actions do not interest me in the slightest.
How 'bout those that are sick of both parties and know a thug - when they see one? nm
[ In Reply To ..]nm
You simply had your rude comment made to above poster - turned back to you....
[ In Reply To ..]nm
Tit for tat is for 2 year olds. Asking a poster to - address the post directly
[ In Reply To ..]hardly qualifies as rude.
Forget reports! READ HIS BOOKS! He makes himself very clear - on his racism and loyalty to Muslims.
[ In Reply To ..]nm
Behind comments such as these, it is patently obvious - that
[ In Reply To ..]you do not have the ability to understand a single thing he wrote about. Search for racial identity on a global stage is WAY beyond your grasp.
Well, let's see..... - sm
[ In Reply To ..]In his book, 'Audacity', he said quite clearly, âI will stand with them should the political winds shift in an ugly direction.â (meaning his Muslim brothers/countries). What do you think he meant by that? Just what he said. He said it clearly. How much clearer does he have to be?
The Trinity United Church of Christ was pro-Muslim. He stood strong with Jeremiah Wright while Wright crowned the pro-Muslim Nation of Islam Louis Farrakhan. How much clearer does he have to be?
He made it very clear of his intent and for those who are too stupid to get it, there will be consequences.
Even during the election, all the liberal media made a point of NEVER speaking of his books, the very racial comments he made against whites, the out and out 'I'll stand with my Muslim brothers' comment. If they have brought up these very clear comments made by Obama in the books HE wrote, he would have been seen for who he really is.
Quoting from viral emails again, I see. - When will they ever learn?
[ In Reply To ..]nm
Why would I need an e-mail when I have a book written by O - in his own racist words.....poor thing
[ In Reply To ..]nm
Actually elements of your post have been directly lifted - from the now debunked email.
[ In Reply To ..]Next time, don't be so blatently obvious.
I have the BOOK...it's IN THE BOOK...take a read! - talking bout lazy! nm
[ In Reply To ..]nm
Manipulating quotes out of context is akin to - lying out loud. It is apparent
[ In Reply To ..]what you read was the viral email from Summer of 2008.
Buy the book.....it's quite plainly stated in his own words... - excuses excuses.....
[ In Reply To ..]nm
Read the book twice. I know a manufactured quote or ones - taken out of context when I see one.
[ In Reply To ..]Like I said before, understanding a search for racial identity on a global stage is WAY beyond your capacity to understand, especially in the presence of presidposed racism and foregone conclusions found in debunked viral emails.
Nope, all that search for racial identity hogwash doesn't work with - me...glad you debunked his book!
[ In Reply To ..]nm
he knows who his mother and father are...how much searching - does he have to do? What garbage...
[ In Reply To ..]nm
debunked, here's the link - anon
[ In Reply To ..]The first quote, "them" refers to immigrants. The rest of your post has been debunked already:
