The Greatest Disconnect

Update Aug 14:  Hussein gives his approval

Obama, he is not only  America's first black president, he is also their first muslim President.   Look... I don't know why the Americans are whining so much.  They got two for the price of one.  Reminds me of times when my local grocery store sells "close to expiry date" stuff the same way.  When buying such goodies, one is always taking a chance and you should take care to consume the stuff right away otherwise the contents of the half priced items might not be edible later on and you might have to be rushed to the emergency ward of a hospital near you.

...These rituals remind us of the principles that we hold in common, and Islam’s role in advancing justice, progress, tolerance, and the dignity of all human beings. Ramadan is a celebration of a faith known for great diversity and racial equality. And here in the United States, Ramadan is a reminder that Islam has always been part of America and that American Muslims have made extraordinary contributions to our country. And today, I want to extend my best wishes to the 1.5 billion Muslims around the world – and your families and friends – as you welcome the beginning of Ramadan.

I look forward to hosting an Iftar dinner celebrating Ramadan here at the White House later this week, and wish you a blessed month.

May God’s peace be upon you.....
