Anti-Obama billboard stirs controversy :: A Muslim without a birh certificate, how bad can it get?
US Army Veteran
in Wheat Ridge compares President Barack Obama to a terrorist and questions
his U.S. citizenship.
The billboard, located at 4855 Miller Road, shows two cartoonish images of
Obama wearing a Muslim turban and reads "PRESIDENT or JIHAD?"
It also says "BIRTH CERTIFICATE - PROVE IT!" alluding to the conspiracy
theory which claims Barack Obama was born in Kenya rather than Hawaii, which
would disqualify him for the office of President.
The words "WAKE UP AMERICA! REMEMBER FT. HOOD!" appear on the bottom of the
billboard.
The sign belongs to a car dealership.
"Since Fort Hood, I've had it," owner Phil West told FOX 31 News Friday.
"You can't suggest things. You can't profile. You gotta call a spade a
spade."
"Everything I have read about Mr. Obama points right to the fact that he is
a Muslim. And that is the agenda of what Muslim is all about. It's about
anti-American, it's about anti-Christianity," West said.
The Anti-Defamation League condemned the sign, as did AM760 radio host David
Sirota, who discussed the sign and interviewed West on his program Friday
morning.
"It's out of control," Sirota said. "This conservative hatred of Barack
Obama is out of contol, and this brings together all those strands of it:
the racism, the anti-Muslim fervor. It's one thing to criticise the
president on health care, or Wall Street reform, or immigration. But this is
outrageous. And I think it's a fair question to ask why these questions
about religion and ancestry are being directed so viciously at the first
African-American President of the United States."
While the ADL issued a statement calling the billboard an exploitation of
the Ft. Hood shootings that is "divisive and offensive, and perpetuates
hateful and harmful stereotypes about Muslims", prominent conservatives have
been silent thus far.
"That could suggest that conservative leaders are afraid to confront the
extreme fringe of their base," Sirota said. "Or it suggests they actually
condone this message. Either way, it's disturbing."
Sirota is an unabashed liberal, but not all self-identified conservatives
who drove past the sign Friday disagree with him.
"I'm not concerned with that at all," said Linda Alexander, of Golden, in
regard to the dispute over President Obama's American citizenship. "He was
elected, he's the president -- that's it, as far as I'm concerned. Some
people just can't accept that, obviously."
But Keith Walters, another passing driver, saw nothing wrong with the
billboard.
"I can't honestly say he's a Jihadist, but there's a lot of things that are
questionable," Walters said. "The whole birth certificate controversy. From
what I've read, there's no proof Obama isn't a Muslim. And I don't believe
there's any racism [in the billboard]. I think that should be a question
asked to any president who -- they have some questionable backgrounds."
Supporters of the birth certificate theory, known as 'Birthers,' believe the
Certification of Live Birth produced by the state of Hawaii is a forgery.

he is
a Muslim."
Could you please share something that the rest of us can read, that
indicates he is a Muslim?
What mosque does he attend? When will he be taking his Hajj and why
has he waited so long?
Why doesn't he observe Fajr, Dhuhr, 'Asr, Maghrib, and 'Isha?
The intent of the strawman "he is a Muslim" appears to be targeted to
the conclusion that he is a faithless, forsaken Muslim. I cannot
imagine what purpose it serves to make such a claim, but then, many
things are difficult to fathom in the twisted minds of the right wing.
