Newest Obama Rumor: He Might Be a Muslim

Posted on July 18, 2008

Heh! This is like going back to the very first rumor spread on Obama, but with a new twist. Please note that this rumor, just like most Obama rumors, comes from a Hillary supporting leftwing blog.

In a column he wrote this week about Obama which was published on Tuesday, Kristof once again refers to this earlier interview. Also, he has subsequently seemed to say that his editors have reviewed it in its entirety.

What may be damning about the interview, the transcript of it and—especially—the original tape recording is that Obama allegedly provided Kristof with a recitation from memory of the Muslim call to prayer in Arabic. One of Obama’s cousins in Africa has stated in the recent past that Obama was, indeed, once a Muslim. Kristof’s interview records may prove this more definitively.

Michael W explains why this is a non-story.
