Obama to Muslim World: And I Do Windows.

I can guarantee you that the French Canal Plus interviewer to whom Obama stated that the US is one of the largest Muslim countries in the world thought that her English was not up to snuff and she was misunderstanding him. What if she had challenged him on it?

Obama: And one of the points I want to make is, is that if you actually took the number of Muslim Americans, we’d be one of the largest Muslim countries in the world. And so there’s got to be a better dialogue and a better understanding between the two peoples.

Interviewer: The US, one of the largest Muslim countries in the world? But, but, I thought the US was a Christian country, yes?

Obama: Oh, no. No. That’s a popular misconception, but no. We’re not a Christian country. No, we’re like a big ole Saudia Arabia just above Mexico.

Interviewer: Americans, they are Muslim?

Obama: Yeah, we’re Muslim. I wouldn’t want my daughters punished with a baby, but I’m totally ok with them being punished with a burkha or, you know, an honor killing.

Interviewer: But… but… Baywatch?

Obama: Ok, my point wasn’t that Americans are Muslim, my point was that I am Muslim. (Note of desperation) I’m totally Muslim, I’m totally open to dialogue and understanding. (Leans forward, whispers) I go both ways. (Suddenly turns toward camera. Pleading.) Please don’t hurt me. I’ll give you anything you want. Look, if you guys are going to target somewhere, target Pennsylvania. Those are your enemies. Those are Americans, not me.
