Isn't THAT Interesting?

So, George Stephanopoulos interviewed St. Hope and Change, excuse me, I’d like to change that name.  From here on out, I will refer to him as St. Hussein Hope and Change.

Anyhoo, at one point in the interview, there appears to be a leeeetle Freudian slip by the ONE.

SHHaC:  “You are absolutely right that McCain has not talked about my Muslim faith.”

GS:  “Christian faith.”

SHHaC:  .."well the assertion that I am muslim...”

Survey says?

BZZZZZZZT!  Wrong, fucker.  You aren’t fooling us anymore.

Am currently waiting to see if abcnews.go.com will include that in their snippets of the transcript.  Somehow I seriously doubt it.

And in case you missed it earlier this week, here’s more to chew on in re: SHHaC and Muslim ties.  I guess “student loans” don’t always mean “from the government”.  At least not the U.S. government.

St. Hussein Hope and Change Had Close Ties to Top Saudi Adviser at Early Age

”....Percy Sutton, the former borough president of Manhattan, off-handedly revealed the unusual circumstances about his first encounter with the young Obama.

“I was introduced to (Obama) by a friend who was raising money for him,” Sutton told NY1 city hall reporter Dominic Carter.

“The friend’s name is Dr. Khalid al-Mansour, from Texas,” Sutton said. “He is the principal adviser to one of the world’s richest men. He told me about Obama.” [snip]

...Although many Americans have never heard of Khalid Abdullah Tariq al-Mansour (his full name), he is well known within the black community as a lawyer, an orthodox Muslim, a black nationalist, an author, an international deal-maker, an educator, and an outspoken enemy of Israel.

A graduate of Howard University with a law degree from the University of California, al-Mansour sits on numerous corporate boards, including the Saudi African Bank and Chicago-based LaGray Chemical Co. LaGray, which was formed to do business in Africa, counts former Nigerian President General Abdusalam Abubakar on its advisory board.

He also sits on the board of the non-profit African Leadership Academy, along with top McCain for President adviser Carly Fiorina, and organized a tribute to the President of Ghana at the Clinton White House in 1995, along with pop star Michael Jackson.

But his writings and books are packed with anti-American rhetoric reminiscent of the Rev. Jeremiah Wright, Obama’s disgraced former pastor.

In a 1995 book, “The Lost Books of Africa Rediscovered,” he alleged that the United States was plotting genocide against black Americans. [snip]

...Al-Mansour’s more recent videotaped speeches focus on Muslim themes, and abound with anti-Semitic theories and anti-Israel vitriol.  [snip]

....But al-Mansour’s sponsorship of Obama as a prospective Harvard law student is important for another reason beyond his Islamic and anti-American rhetoric and early Black Panther ties.

At the time Percy Sutton, a former lawyer for Malcolm X and a former business partner of al-Mansour, says he was raising money for Obama’s graduate school education, al-Mansour was representing top members of the Saudi Royal family seeking to do business and exert influence in the United States.

In 1989, for example — just one year after Obama entered Harvard Law School — The Los Angeles Times revealed that al-Mansour had been advising Saudi billionaires Abdul Aziz and Khalid al-Ibrahim in their secret effort to acquire a major stake in prime oceanfront property in Marina del Rey, Calif., through “an elaborate network of corporate shells in California, the Caribbean and Europe.”

At the same time, he was also advising Prince Alwaleed bin Talal in his U.S. investments, and sits on the board of his premier investment vehicle, Kingdom Holdings.  [snip]

....Prince Alwaleed, 53, is the nephew if King Abdallah of Saudi Arabia. Forbes magazine ranked him this year as the 19th richest person on the planet, with a fortune in excess of $23 billion. He owns large chunks of Citigroup and News Corp., the holding company that controls Fox News.

He is best known in the United States for his offer to donate $10 million to help rebuild downtown Manhattan after the 9/11 attacks. But after the prince made a public comment suggesting that U.S. policies had contributed to causing the attacks, Mayor Rudy Giuliani handed back his check....

...Since then, Prince Alwaleed’s Kingdom Foundation has given millions of dollars to Muslim charities in the United States, including several whose leaders have been indicted on terrorism-related charges in federal courts...."

“You can tell a man’s character by the company he keeps.”

I’d say, in the case of St. Hussein Hope and Change, (or would that be “hype and change"), truer words have never been spoken.  Do not be fooled by the flashy cover, kids.  And really, do yourselves a favor and learn a little bit about our government and politics so that the next time you hear SHHaC tell you that a vote for McCain/Palin is a vote for women to lose their right to choose, (as if he gives two shits about women), you will know what a crock of shit that is.

It’s not going to happen!  MmmmKAY??

Pull the blinders off and smell the burnt flesh.  SHHaC is roasted.
